From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

The closest cult classic to Ryan Coogler's titular creation is the 1996 horror-thriller, From Dusk Till Dawn, which follows two brothers who take a family hostage and hide out in a Mexican biker bar, The Titty Twister, that turned out to be a den of vampires.

Called for campy supernatural horror? From Dusk Till Dawn is available to stream on these platforms:

Judas and the Black Messiah (2021)

Similar to Sinners, Judas and the Black Messiah captures the systemic racism and the fight for civil rights, as FBI informant William O'Neal infiltrates the Illinois Black Panther Party to betray the chairman, Fred Hampton, leading up to his 1969 assassination.

Get Out (2017)

Get Out uncovers a psychological horror about a young Black man, Chris, who discovers a sinister, body-napping conspiracy.

While visiting his white girlfriend's family, he realizes that the family's weekend getaway was no introduction to welcome Chris into the family, but rather to transplant the elderly white people's brains into Black bodies, as a part of their cult tradition.

Streaming Platforms: HBO Max, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video

Blade (1998)

Blade centers on a half-vampire "daywalker" who hunts vampires using martial arts and specialized weaponry to protect humans and avenge his mother.

While it remains to be seen whether Marvel plans to push through a reboot for the abandoned project, the 1998 version stars Wesley Snipes, who must stop the villainous vampire, Deacon Frost, from summoning more chaos into the human world.

Purchase or Rent: Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video

Opus (2025)

The A24 psychological horror-thriller, Opus, focuses on a young music journalist, Ariel Ecton (Ayo Edebiri), who is invited to a remote listening party for the comeback of legendary pop star Alfred Moretti (John Malkovich), only to realize that the comeback party is filled with a dangerous, twisted cult-like figures that Moretti has disturbing plans for.

30 Days of Night (2007)

In the small town of Barrow, Alaska, hungry vampires descend to feed as a part of their "month of darkness" tradition every year. Sheriff Eben (Josh Hartnett), his wife (Melissa George), and an unlikely band of survivors must try to last until dawn breaks over Barrow's monthlong twilight.

Purchase or Rent: Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video

The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988)

If it's Southern Gothic, voodoo, and other supernatural elements, The Serpent and the Rainbow explores Harvard anthropologist Dennis Alan's travel to Haiti, where he investigates a voodoo potion that was used to create "zombies", aka living, paralyzed people who are buried and revived.

One of its shared traits with Sinners is the fact that voodoo is taken seriously as a form of religion rather than a gimmick, as both films focus on the intense psychological horror of political oppression.

Purchase or Rent: Apple TV, Amazon Prime Video

Us (2019)

While Us has no vampires in its horror universe, the supernatural beings are somewhat akin to the immortal personalities that lurk about their world.

Adelaide Wilson and her family's beach vacation turns into a nightmare when they are attacked by the "Tethered"—a group of malevolent doppelgängers of themselves, forcing the Wilsons to fight for survival.
