For #Juneteenth last night, we watched #Black filmmaker #WilliamCrain's #blaxpoitation #movie "Dr Black, Mr Hyde." Didn't like it as well as his classic #Blacula, but it wasn't bad. It had interesting messages about race and horror, and a nicely done climax at the #WattsTowers. #BernieCasey did a fine job in the dual starring role. I wish the women in it had been more than victims or bystanders, but #RosalindCash and #MarieOHenry did well with what they were given.
