Ryan Coogler’s ‘Sinners’ Succeeds with Chilling Horror Tale

Director Ryan Coogler has proven his versatility by tackling a scary horror story in “Sinners”, a period piece set in 1930s Jim Crow-infested Southern America. The film follows identical twins returning to their hometown to open a juke joint, drawing inspiration from Kathryn Bigelow’s “Near Dark” and the “From Dusk Till Dawn” collaboration. This latest venture solidifies Coogler as one of the most talented filmmakers working today, showcasing his ability to craft both impactful dramas and chilling horror stories.
