'The Blackening' finds the life in its 'We can't all die first' concept
The promotional line for "The Blackening" is so good -- "We can't all die first" -- there was reason to fear the movie couldn't live up to it. Yet like other self-referential horror/comedies (the "Scream" franchise come to mind), the film ably delivers on its premise, mining enough life from its satirical concept to deliver plenty of crowd-pleasing moments.
