Episode 2 - Sinny Sin Sin: A Deep Dive Into Sinners, Inspiration, and Media that Made Us
In this episode of Hustling with Harges, Courtney and Tyrone sink their teeth into the film Sinners—a genre-bending horror masterpiece that rocked their creative souls. From its eerie symbolism and gut-wrenching themes to the masterful sound design and color theory (shoutout to Ruth Carter forever), the Harges break down what makes this story so compelling—and so terrifying.
We explore the film’s core themes: art as spiritual power, cultural extraction disguised as fellowship, and how horror can be used to tell deep, layered stories about race, history, and ownership. You’ll also hear about sibling dynamics (fictional and real), cinematic shout-outs, and media that’s been fueling their creativity lately. Oh—and we may or may not launch a campaign for an all-women Expendables reboot.
If you love film, storytelling, or smart-as-hell sibling banter, this episode’s for you. Come for the vampires, stay for the breakdown of who’s allowed to tell the truth—and who’s trying to steal it.
