Shownotes

It's more 90's madness as we talk the TV movie that launched a television show, M.A.N.T.I.S. (1994)! Not to be confused with the movie-length opening of the television series, this original film produced by SAM RAIMI is a superhero take on racial violence and the corruption facing Black communities in the US! Learn all about it, and how FOX fired nearly all black cast members when the concept was taken to an episodic format!

It's "Black Lives STILL MATTER" on this week's episode of CULT and CLASSIC Podcast! Listen wherever you get your podcasts and at https://cultandclassicpodcast.com/!
