The erotic thriller that was once all about white suburban angst now taps into the upper middle class black nightmare of infidelity--side-chick-sploitation, THOT horror, black erotic thriller (BET)--whatever you want to call it. Invariably, a happy black couple in a posh neighbourhood with generic white-collar jobs typically reserved for white sitcom characters (architect, publicist, financial analyst) drink wine from the Olivia Pope collection, but their world is turned upside-down when a disturbed individual attempts to break up their marriage. When said lunatic is rebuffed, they turn violent. Unlike Fatal Attraction or Basic Instinct, the woman tends to be the main protagonist and the man is shunted to the side or killed for his trouble. They’re totally unaware they’re bad, are practically identical and make excellent use of Morris Chestnut and Taraji P. Henson.
