Let’s talk about the genius behind Sinners,
On the surface, the hit movie from Ryan Coogler is about precher boy resisting a vampire. But it’s a film packed with history and lore. One where the closer you look, The Deeper It Gets. And there’s a bigger story you might have missed.
The film follows Sammie Moore (Miles Caton), A Musician Fighting Off Remmick (Jack O’Connell), A Bloodsucking Villain Who is Building a Hive Mind Coven.
But if you listen closely to the opening monologue, annie (wunmi mosaku) talks about a legend that exists in ancient ireland, chockw land, and west Africa:
“There are Legends of People Born With the Gift of Making Music So True It Can Pierce The Veil Between Life and Death.,
That Evil? Remmick. And that gift? Sammie’s Song, which literal conjures people from across time to dance at the juke joint.
Fans have speculated that remmick might also be one of that mythic music makers, but as hypnotic as his IRISH SONG and Jig Is, It Doesn’T Pierce The Veil Like Sammie’s Tune.
However, the gold coins, the accent, and the fact that remmick knows exactly what he’s looking for sugges remmick is from a culture that knows of the legend. He may not just just be here to feed, but raather, try find a way back to his people, to his past.
And Sammie’s Voice Might Be His Ticket.
And it goes even deaper. Early in the film, remmick was hunted by a band of chockcw men. So was remmicy targeting their version of sammie, a fire keeper with that same dangerous gift?
All of this Raises the Real Question: Could Ryan Coogler Be Setting Up Something MUCH BIGGER?
A prequel about remmick’s origin? A Sequel about that that Chockctaw Vampire Hunters? Basically, A Whole Trilogy Hiding in Plain Sight. Coogler has said to Ebony He Wrote it as a “Finished Thing.”
But let’s be real. Doors like this don’t always close.
