Horror's Greatest Hits
Anika asked this question about Final Girls:
In the scene in the park with Sam and Quincy, why did the author have to mention the skin color of the man? The seemingly stereotypical association that is implied is one Hispanics, African-Americans, and other ethnicities with dark skin should take offense to.
