Carl Towns This film was done by Wes Craven who of course created Nightmare on Elm Street. it also has Kelly Jo Minter who actually survived through Nightmare on Elm Street 5.

Carl Towns Okay, the dogs not racist. He just doesn't like Ving Rhames.

Carl Towns Ving and Fool play hide and go seek with a crazy white man brandishing a high caliber gun in a house thats built like a fortress. This is what life would have been like if the south had won
the Civil War.

Carl Towns Crazy looking person in the walls. Strange white girl in a dress who ain't seen a brotha before. Fool is in some serious shit.

Carl Towns Universal Studios Florida incorporated some of the film's plot as well as the house into a haunted house several times for their annual Halloween Horror Nights
event.-wiki

Carl Towns White man in S&M gear shooting holes in the wall with a shotgun trying to get that "Roach"

Carl Towns If you really want me to do a commentary on a film with evil white folks, I could do Rosewood. but I might not talk to my mom for the rest of the day after watching that.

Carl Towns okay, the dog is racist. last time he just went for Rhames because he was the biggest of the two.
Poor Rhames, you died a punk.

Carl Towns Roach just sent that dog a slide. Damn, I'd like to go down a slide. It looks fun. Damn this getting older BS.

Carl Towns Speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil!

Carl Towns
These white people are crazy. Making the black kid clean the body. Giving the Alice girl a boiling hot bath after washing the blood stains.

Carl Towns what a nice guy. feeding all those creepy people under the stairs some fresh n***o.

Carl Towns poor Roach, died. but at least he helped out Fool and showed him those valuable coins he was breaking in to find.

Carl Towns The black kid taking it to the white man. Making his escape with the white girl. Wow. Some sort of metaphor.

Carl Towns the black kid got out with some valuable coins. white girl didn't leave with him. the end of the film?
-Pedro Sambrano I hope so, run dude, run!!!

Carl Towns I really think people who describe this as a comedy or even a horror comedy are missing the point - it's a classic fairy/folk tale, right down to the theme of the kid having to earn manhood and a "real name" by doing a heroic deed.

Carl Towns Wicked step-parents, hidden treasure (gold coins, even!), creepy house with secret passages and monsters in the basement, captive maiden to be rescued, innocent villagers held in slavery by evil (land)lords - it's all there! I know this could be said of a lot of fantasy/horror films, but this one seems to be more clearly ...derived than most. Loved it-review i read on imdb

Carl Towns Your sister is speaking smarts. Don't go back. DON"T GO BACK N***A! ITS A TRAP! LEAVE THE WHITE GIRLS ALONE!

-Pedro Sambrano If only OJ and Tiger Woods would have learned this lesson.

Carl Towns I told you not to go back Fool. Now you're fighting S&M Man and his partner Crazy White Woman.
-Pedro Sambrano Damn

Carl Towns Damn. Man bobby trapped their escape route.

Carl Towns Either this is role playing, or they are smacking and choking each other.

Carl Towns while i was gone, we had some action. now fool is staring down the barrel of a shotgun. wait-knock at the door might save him... its his sister! here to save the day!

Carl Towns coming up on the end of the flick.
