Spooky Season
(R) USA – 1 hr 35 min
1990 · d. James Bond III
Starring James Bond III, Cynthia Bond, Kadeem Hardison, Bill Nunn, Samuel L. Jackson
A crisis of faith brings a sheltered divinity student (James Bond III) to stay with his hip cousin (Kadeem Hardison) in NYC, but his adventures in the city’s nightlife take a turn when a demonic spirit disguised as a gorgeous seductress (Cynthia Bond) sets her eyes on him. Featuring gorgeous, neon-tinted cinematography and a bumpin’ New Jack Swing soundtrack, this stylish, phantasmagoric chiller was considered by Troma president Lloyd Kaufman to be the infamous studio’s greatest film.
Stick around after the movie for a talkback with Vincent Williams and Len Webb of The Micheaux Mission podcast and Stephanye Watts of the Be Reel Black Cinema Club.
