  • The flex category honors Van Lathan: did this movie need more black people? — Joanna Robinson
  • It's set in Detroit and it did: the community college teacher, maybe one of the sex workers and the two cops are about it, and Naomi Aki (as transcribed) is second billed in the sequel.
  • The category ran with Van for Friday the 13th, where he did his movies that didn't need black people; this one at least had a couple.
