Sinners earns horror movie record that’s never been achieved before

New film Sinners , directed by Black Panther and Creed filmmaker Ryan Coogler, has earnt a rare horror movie record.

The genre-hopping supernatural thriller arrived on wave of hype after extremely positive reviews – and an initial teaser trailer that gave away nothing about the plot.

All that was known about the film, which Coogler wrote, was that it follows a pair of twins, both played by Coogler’s frequent collaborator Michael B Jordan, who return to their hometown to discover “a greater evil”.

A second trailer – not to mention reviews of the film – have given away what that “greater evil” is, but it’s been claimed that Sinners is best enjoyed without knowing what tricks it has up its sleeve.

The world appears to agree: after 246 reviews, the film, which was shot in IMAX and cost an estimated $100m, has an impressive score of 98 per cent on aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes.

This is an impressive score for what is sure to be a blockbuster release for Warner Bros – and is even higher than both Black Panther and Creed, which have scores of 95 per cent. But it’s the film’s CinemaScore that has broken a record.

For 47 years, CinemaScore has measured a film’s appeal by polling early reactions – and Sinners has become the first ever horror film to receive an A rating.
