Black horror is a horror subgenre that focuses on African-American characters and narratives. It often involves the use of social and political commentary to compare themes of racism and other lived experiences of Black Americans to common horror themes and tropes. Early entries in the genre include the Spencer Williams Jr. film Son of Ingagi (1940), and George A. Romero's film Night of the Living Dead (1968), which is considered one of the first Black horror films because its lead role is played by a Black actor, Duane Jones. Blaxploitation horror films of the 1970s, namely Blacula (1972) and the vampire film Ganja & Hess (1973), became prominent examples of the genre. Other examples appeared during the 1990s, including the Bernard Rose film Candyman (1992) and Tales from the Hood (1995), an anthology film directed by Rusty Cundieff which has been described as the "godfather of Black horror".
