About this listen

Welcome back to A Podcask of Amontillado, where we delve into the dark, dreadful, and terrifying parts of the world.

Mississippi Delta Blues. Crime. Race. Love. Irish dance. Vampires. It may be a little early to say this, but Ryan Coogler may have already given us the best movie of 2025. Filled with great writing, a stellar cast, intricate worldbuilding, historical accuracy, and so much blood, Sinners is horror at its best.

Listen in as Erin & Gary are joined by Anthony Liggins from The Fandom Hybrid podcast to discuss the film's themes & meaning behind the title, cultural identity, the power of music, Coogler's skill as a writer & director, debate if Remmick is a tragic figure, their love of the characters & performances, the racial politics of the time, how it works on so many layers, social commentary, and when the movie made them cry.
