anyone not black but enjoyed this?


personally I think that even though most of the actors are black, and some of the issues of the movie are 'black' related, horror fans of all races could enjoy this.

I think a better question would be "Did anyone who is black enjoy this?" and crystal castles kinda sucks by the way, the band not you. I have no opinion on you.

i finally saw this movie last night for the first time i had always been curious to see it since 1995, Not black i'm half mex half jew but i really enjoyed the film i think my favorite story was the one involving the david duke/thomas metzger character! the story with david allen grier was funny,at the end. the first story with the cops was good and i liked the final story that discussed black on black violence. I thought Clarence williams' performance was out landishly excellent, he sort of reminded me of his sampson character from half baked.

Retarded question. If you like a movie then you like a movie. It's like asking if a white guy liked an Austin Powers movie but isn't white. I know. It makes as much sense as the original question. IMDB, gotta love it.

I'm white, and this has been one of my favorite horror films since it came out. That ending scared me big time back when I saw it for the first time. lol. It's a shame a TV series could not have been based on this film with more tales from the hood.

I'm white as they come, and I thought this film was pretty damn good. It does suffer from weak production, but it makes up for it in terms of rich storytelling, and a slick addressing of major contemporary social issues.

im boricua and i liked it.specifically the last tale.where the dude from moesha was talking to the white supremacist guy.i realized that the thug had no right to feel mad about what the white did towards blacks since he does just as harm to blacks if not more than the white supremacist.

Me, I love the this film and I am white. To me, this along with Creepshow 1 and 2 are the best horror anthology movies ever.

I'm a white middle aged woman and loved this movie. :)

'Course...I grew up in a lower middle class neighborhood, and most of my friends lived in what would have been considered "the ghetto" of my hometown (before it gentrified), so I identify more with characters in movies like these than the usual yuppie couples and drunk-ass college kids that populate most horror anyway.

And...watching the second segment, it was only time I've ever wanted to smack the crap out of David Allen Grier...Sorry, David. :( Consider it a testament to your acting skills?

What makes you think only blacks can enjoy this movie? It's for everyone who appreciates good horror.
