Ever thought zombies were just fictional horror? Think again. The new documentary *Black Zombie* hits NYC and LA theaters Sept 11 (it screened at SXSW and Fantasia this year). It uncovers the zombie’s real roots: a metaphor for slavery in colonial Haiti, representing stolen agency and victimhood. Black spiritual traditions were distorted, sensationalized, and turned into Hollywood’s cash cow. Tracing its evolution to modern films, it features historians, artists, and legends like Slash, pushing back against harmful Vodou stereotypes. Would you watch this eye-opening doc?
