Published: Feb. 27, 2019, 5:09 p.m.

b'The Ghouls are back with special guest, Simon, just in time for Black History Month! The gang screened HORROR NOIRE: A HISTORY OF BLACK HORROR directed by Xavier Neal-Burgin on Shudder. On this episode, Ghoul Chat discusses the uncomfortable racial undertones, stereotypes and tropes that permeated black history in horror cinema from the early years of BIRTH OF A NATION to the recent GET OUT directed by Jordan Peele. The team reviews what\\u2019s new in the genre world before diving into the main topic; Alexz, Jeanette and Simon give a quick, spoiler free review of GLASS. No one really cared for the artsy horror show that is VELVET BUZZSAW. Will and Jeanette started watching Netflix\\u2019s new zombie horror series KINGDOM. Lastly, everyone discusses their latest binges in true crime docs: the appalling ABDUCTED IN PLAIN SIGHT and transfixing and f**ked up TED BUNDY TAPES, along with the backlash of the corresponding trailer for EXTREMELY WICKED, SHOCKINGLY EVIL AND VILE (why is the title this long?)\\n\\n\\nPlease subscribe, rate and review us!\\n\\n\\nFollow us on Instagram and Twitter!\\n@ghoulchat\\n@williamfrench\\n@jeanmarli\\n@alexznyx\\n@ashleynrhernandez'
