What does everyone think about the fact Amy Madigan will be in the new X-Files? I'm pretty excited by this news.

I keep going back to the ending of the film and trying to think about what the immediate aftermath would have been like. So I was interested in thoughts, theories, etc.

I’ll start with the missing people. There is a lot of them. Obviously little Lisa is now an orphan. Pearline and Mary’s respective husbands are bound to seek out some answers. Same with Cornbread’s wife. Basically a whole bunch of people just up and disappeared because there is likely to be no trace of them since they burned up.

The scene at the club/slaughterhouse when discovered. Eventually someone and/or authorities are going to arrive at the scene and find a dead Smoke and a bunch of dead Klan members and the shoot out. Inside the club they’ll see a hell of a scene, signs of fighting and I would assume a dead Annie in the middle (unless Smoke buried her and the others left which I think there is a good chance of).

The pastor and the congregation. It appears Sammie leaves pretty much instantly (as he said he would) and goes to live his life. The scene in the church would have been quite confronting too. And Sammie’s father, the pastor, how would he have taken what he saw, plus his son running off, plus the news when it eventually reached that everyone in that club is missing, and all the other discoveries they would have been made.

Mary and Stack, obvious question is how they survived? Why didn’t they die? Were they stronger because they were together? How do they survive over the years? It seems in this version of the lore that vampirism is like a zombie infection and “turns” the person into a vampire very quickly (seen first hand when that vampire was turned by cornbread and took seemingly only minutes).

Those are the main things that I think about in the immediate aftermath of the movie (before post credits obviously) so I was wondering what you all think.

Was offensive and historically inaccurate. I was surprised to find out the movie wasn’t written and produced by a Jew. Although the black guy that wrote it probably doesn’t know much about history to be fair.

Hi, good day to you all.

I remember watching Sinners a while ago and thinking “I know that song” in the initial church scene.

The thing is me, being a Latin baptist xennial woman (44) didn’t recognize the melody, just the words.

I asked my mom and sister if they remember any church song with those lyrics.

My mom (67) sang this melody that she knew from her childhood in Sunday school called in Spanish “Esta lucecita” or “Esta lucecita tiene que brillar”.

Sister (42) sang “Esta es la luz de Cristo”, which has similar lyrics but a more rapid pace.

I believe my mom’s song is the same as in the movie, and it amazes me to think a song from the 30s is still present in the churches around the world.

Hey guys! I just watched this movie with my girlfriend. Absolutely amazing movie, we were on the edge of the couch (literally), for the last hour of the movie. We had a few questions I was hoping yall could answer.

- How did the vampirism start? Like why did it randomly show up with Rennick?

- Is it the guitar that attracted Rennick? If not, why did he want Sammie specifically?

- Why didn’t the Natives push harder to kill him? We feel like it was weak to the plot just to have them show up like “yeah this guy is dangerous” then leave.

- How were the vampires able to enter the mill near the end fight? No one invited them in?

- When they’re dancing in the mill, it’s showing a whole bunch of other cultures that weren’t “actually” there, was that for symbolism?

- Why are some of the vampire eyes different colours? is that also a culture symbolism?

I’m not the most educated on cultural symbolism, i’m trying to be very respectful and understanding of this 🙏. We just feel the whole supernatural addition to this movie wasn’t necessary. No hate to the movie or anything, we loved it.
