SATIRICAL THRILLER

Emergency, Prime Video

THIS racially charged dark comedy plays out over one increasingly tense night of partying at an American college. It starts out resembling a comedy from the 1980s, with two very different black friends — one keen on studying, one keen on parties — planning the night out to end all nights out. Their fateful evening takes a turn when Kunle and Sean (Donald Elise Watkins and RJ Cyler) discover an unconscious girl, and that’s when the tension begins, as they try to help her, and people keep misunderstanding their intentions.
