I've seen more whites die first in horror movies so far so this is just in some movies. We people tend to point out the exotic or minors in these movies (more chickens than roosters for example)

because its a trope.
Nobody wants to think and be original.

....But anyways, its not true for all horror movies. It just sort of happened. Could be that most horror movies are set at night or in the dark, so its harder to see the black guy (if you call this racist then dkagndkanfkldas shush), there's not many black actors so they might have a lot of roles in other movies (getting killed will mean they don't need to hang around as long), or that black guys are just too damn good so obviously, kill the strongest guy and deal with the weak ones later. <I found all of this on Reddit. It was pretty interesting.

i just had to like say thank you about the (and if anyone says this is racist shh) part bc some people at my school are ridiculous. i'll say "chinese" or something and they'll be like "racist" and i have to make this big effort to explain that calling a chinese person chinese is not racist. ._. bleh

No minorities usually survive horror movies(not just the black guy)...the black guy doesn't always die first,but he doesn't survive. I think it's dumb how predictable the movies can be though...
