The movie, The Blackening, will be premiering on Sky Cinema at 10:45 in the morning and 6:15 in the evening.
In Tim Story's clever comedy, the typical horror movie trope where the Black character is the first to die is turned on its head as all the characters are Black. The story follows a group of Black friends who have gathered in a cabin in the woods to celebrate Juneteenth. However, they soon realize their hosts are missing, and they come across a frightening board game called The Blackening. The game requires them to answer questions about Black culture and history, including their favorite TV show Friends, or else one of their missing friends will be killed. Although this movie is not a parody, it does reference classic horror movies and cleverly satirizes Black representation. It also takes a critical look at the underlying racial prejudices that exist within society today.

The Fifth Element's intricate spectacle fuses with Brazil's comedic bureaucracy (with a cameo from Terry Gilliam) to create a ridiculously over-the-top adventure.
At the workplace, eleven at night, airing on Comedy Central
Mike Judge's hilarious 1999 comedy perfectly captures the mundane, bizarre reality of working in an office. The boss's vague and meaningless management jargon, a co-worker stuck with the name Michael Bolton, and the slow but sure removal of a desk to the basement are all enough to make even the most level-headed worker, like Peter (Ron Livingston), want to quit. Of course, Peter's laid-back attitude and lack of concern catch the attention of visiting efficiency consultants. This film is a great satire that will make you see your own workplace in a whole new way.
