The movie is a Coogler original. It’s the first film he has written and directed that isn’t based on an existing IP or historical event. Essentially, it’s the lovechild of “Blade,” “From Dusk Till Dawn,” and “Lovecraft Country.” “Sinners” intricately weaves together the history, culture and music of the American South, set to a brutal vampire flick.

Apparently it is the year of exposing prominent historical figures through film. Ridley Scott’s “Napoleon” followed in the footsteps of Sofia Coppola’s “Priscilla” — and audiences will never be able to look at Napoleon Bonaparte the same way again.
