Ghost Tape

No, I’m not over the fact that Jordan Peele’s CANDYMAN pushed to 2021. However, Nia DaCosta’s GHOST TAPE may hold me over for at least a few weeks. The story follows new recruit Tessa Dixon (Kiersey Clemons) at a remote army base in Texas as she deals with the psychological and physical trauma of basic training. When she finds a tape belonging to her grandfather labeled “Ghost Tape 10,” she plays the haunting audio and unknowingly unleashes a deadly manifestation of her own family’s horrible misdeeds. I was intrigued enough by the first episode that I found myself in weird corners of Wikipedia researching propaganda campaigns in Vietnam. So...something clearly stuck with me!
