Koggler never calls on explicit mythological crossroads, nor Nsonson is called by name, but the one who is constantly mentioned is a blues musician who acted as a mentor and NSONSON, Willie Brown and others: Charlie Patton. Patton was considered the father of the Delta Blues (title confirmed by music journalist Robert Palmer), and in the film, aspiring musician Sami (Miles Catton) is in possession of a resonatory guitar for which Elias "Warehouse" Moore (Michael B. The guitar is revealed that she actually belonged to the violent father of the twins, but Sammy inserts the instrument with respect and his own talent. Combined with the use of the guitar as a defense against vampires, this continues the theme of the film for sinfulness to be inexpressively bound along with goodness.

Where the myth of Nsonson has really become evoked lies in Koggler's mythology created for the film, which says that over time, there have been people whose music is so pure that they can stab the veil between the past, the present and the future, allowing the spirits of those who have been find themselves during the performance. It is the ability that can create a community, but also to attract evil ... as a group of nomadic vampires. Sammy is one of these people, and his talent is thus considered a blessing and curse. During the film, the father of Sammy's preacher, EDEDIDE (played by the poet and rapper Saul Williams), tries to make his son deny his musical ambitions, saying, "If you continue to dance with the devil, he will follow you at home." Sammy, who does not stop playing the blues or getting rid of his uncle's guitar, continues to become a famous musician (Played by the legend of blues in real life Buddy Guy), just to find that several vampires have been found for decades.

Although the vampires do not kill Elder Sammy, they offer an offer to turn it, an offer that is similar to the one made by the Vampire Remmik (Jackec O'Connell) when Sammy was young. It is a Faustian deal, the one who makes the other characters in the film. Sammy never makes that deal, but Koggler seems to indicate that being an artist is a Faustian deal all of his. "Sinners" assume that art is a reflection of the individual, their culture and their community, and therefore it is neither completely good nor evil. As smoke and chimney, like vampires and humans, the relationship between art and artist is alive, with both sides of each coin finding balance, not just rooting.
As he allegedly discovered and Robert Nsonson, he reportedly discovered, a person can do wrong for good reasons and vice versa, and the devil is all around us on a daily basis, so sometimes a contract must be made.
