FYI speaking of which, this is what Mike Flanagan himself says about Sinners on Letterboxd:
Review by
Mike Flanagan
WOW - absolutely loved this. Terrific performances, some truly jaw-dropping music sequences (that first one at the juke joint is an all-timer), and the vampires are just a metaphorical wrapper for a story about racial and cultural identity, appropriation, and legacy. I thought the film was very, very good as the credits started to roll, but the mid-credit sequence elevated it to absolute greatness for me, and fully completed the emotional arc of the whole movie. Felt really bad for the people who wandered out too early. Michael B. Jordan is one of the most charismatic and impactful movie stars working today, Ryan Coogler's direction is superb, and Miles Caton, Wunmi Mosaku, Delroy Lindo, Jack O'Connell, Hailey Steinfeld and Tenaj Jackson are all exceptional. Highly recommended.
(Also - I saw this in IMAX and highly recommend you do the same if you're able)
