Does the Black Dude Go First In Horror? Often Not, Actually

Update: 2022-12-21

Description

In this episode, we take a dive into one of the more mocked and maligned tropes in the horror genre: the black dude dies first. Turns out, this has not often been the case, and the truth is more complicated than you'd expect. White girls tend to outlive everyone, but black men tend to have a better shot of surviving the beginning a movie than common jokes would have you believe.
