The Blackening does a pretty decent balancing act with trying to be a horror movie mixed in with a comedy. The problem is it really wasn't as scary as it could have been. The movie does have a lot to say and does so in comedic and creative ways. I really enjoyed the cast here and thought they had good chemistry. The main Villian/villains here are not that big of a surprise if you are paying attention early on. The movie was directed by Tim Story who has mad some really good films over the year like Barbershop. When I watched this movie a 2nd time I got more laughs out of it. I think as the years go by this movie will be classified as a Cult Classic. The Blackening gets 7 solid stars out of 10.
