"Black Museum" was filmed over a month in Spain and Nevada, United States. A horror episode, its themes include race and technology. The set contained a large number of Easter eggs referencing previous works in the series. "Black Museum" was met with negative critical reception, most reviewers finding its storyline and characterisation poor, with mixed reception to the final plot twist. The episode generally received weak rankings by critics in comparison to other Black Mirror episodes. However, Wright received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination and a Black Reel Award nomination for her acting.

Plot

Nish (Letitia Wright) visits the remote Black Museum at a filling station. The proprietor, Rolo Haynes (Douglas Hodge), explains the backstories to the museum's crime-related artefacts, starting with a hairnet device.

Rolo previously recruited people for experimental medical technology. In a flashback, Dr. Peter Dawson (Daniel Lapaine) agrees to test a implant which makes him feel the physical sensations of the person wearing the hairnet. He learns the feeling of many conditions and is able to diagnose patients quickly. After experiencing a man dying, he becomes aroused by his patients' and girlfriend's pain. Addicted to it, he starts injuring his own body and murders a homeless man, which causes him to fall into a coma.

In the present, the air conditioner broken, Nish offers Rolo water. They move onto the origins of a toy monkey. Haynes convinces Jack (Aldis Hodge) to transfer his comatose wife Carrie's (Alexandra Roach) consciousness into part of his brain, so she can experience his physical sensations and communicate with him. Jack and Carrie become aggravated by their lack of privacy and agency, respectively. Jack uses the "pause" feature to stop Carrie from experiencing anything. After months, he feels guilty and unpauses her. Several weeks later they agree for her to be unpaused on weekends only. Jack begins dating Emily (Yasha Jackson), who wants Carrie to be deleted. Rolo transfers Carrie to the toy monkey, which can feel sensations and say two phrases. Parker is quickly bored by it. The monkey technology was illegal, so Rolo is fired and takes Carrie with him.

The museum's centerpiece is a holographic Clayton Leigh (Babs Olusanmokun). Rolo insists he was guilty of murder but Nish reminds him of conflicting evidence. While on death row, Clayton signed up to Rolo's exhibit: when a visitor pulls a lever, a conscious hologram of Clayton receives the electric chair, and a souvenir copy of him experiencing electrocution is made. The exhibit was immensely popular. Haynes begins to asphyxiate and Nish continues the story. After public protests, attendance to the exhibit dwindled to wealthy white supremacists, who left Clayton's hologram in a vegetative state. His wife (Amanda Warren) overdosed the day after she saw him. Nish reveals herself as Clayton's daughter; she sabotaged the air conditioning and gave Rolo poisoned water.

Nish transfers Rolo's consciousness into Clayton's hologram, then electrocuting it, which creates a souvenir of Rolo. Nish takes Carrie with her and sets the museum on fire. She converses with her mother, whose consciousness is inside her head.

Production

Whilst series one and two of Black Mirror were shown on Channel 4 in the UK, Netflix commissioned the programme for 12 episodes (split into two series of six episodes) in September 2015 with a bid of $40 million.[1][2] In March 2016, Netflix outbid Channel 4 for the right to distribute the series in the UK.[2] The six episodes in series four were released on Netflix simultaneously on 29 December 2017.[3] "Black Museum" is listed as the last episode, and was also one of the later episodes to be made. Production overlapped with various stages of each of the other five episodes' productions.[4][5]

Conception and writing
The first story in this episode was based on the short story "The Pain Addict", written by Penn Jillette in the 1980s.

The episode is a portmanteau of three stories, the same structure as the 2014 special "White Christmas". Brooker described it as a narrative of "punishment and racism", similar to series two episode "White Bear", and with a tone resembling the 1990s American horror anthology series Tales from the Crypt. Some of the ideas used in "Black Museum" had been discussed prior to the production of series four. Brooker had conceived earlier of a ghost story involving a digital prisoner who was repeatedly electrocuted. Another unrelated idea was of people having other consciousnesses implanted in their brain, such as a person who had an ex-partner in their brain, or a person who rented out parts of their brain to dead people.[5]

The first part of the anthology, involving Dr. Peter Dawson, was based on the short story "The Pain Addict" authored by magician Penn Jillette early in his career.[6] Jillette had written the story based on the personal experience of being ill in a Spanish welfare hospital in 1981, where it was difficult to get a diagnosis due to the language barrier. He conceived of technology that allowed a doctor to understand what pain a person was suffering, but led to the doctor's addiction to the pain of others. The story continued with the doctor "beating people to feel their pain", engaging in sadomasochism and fantasising of masturbating while Jesus is crucified.[7] The idea was published as a short story in the 1988 anthology Would, Could, Should.[8][9] Jillette met with Brooker before the production of the third series and told him about the story.[7]

Around two years later, Brooker contacted Jillette to explain that he wanted to use "The Pain Addict" as a story in "Black Museum". Jillette then worked with Brooker on the framing story, which would involve a washed-up Las Vegas carny running the Black Museum outside of Vegas. Jillette wanted to audition for the role of the carny, but the production was too far along to change the casting.[7] Brooker took Jillette's past performances as part of Penn & Teller and his documentary series Bullshit! as inspiration for Rolo.[5]

Casting and filming

The production had previously looked to cast Letitia Wright in an episode of the third series of Black Mirror, but she became unavailable. During casting for "Black Museum", Wright was at the end of shooting for the superhero film Black Panther, where she worked with the star of the first series episode "Fifteen Million Merits", Daniel Kaluuya. She provided a self-tape audition, with Kaluuya reading the other characters' lines. Filming took place immediately after Black Panther's filming ended.[5]

Douglas Hodge starred in the episode as Rolo Haynes, describing his character as a white supremacist and "the most toxic person" he had played. Hodge stayed largely in character during the filming process, staying away from Wright and choosing not to rehearse lines off-screen.[5] Daniel Lapaine appears in this episode as Dr. Peter Dawson, after playing an unrelated role in the series one episode "The Entire History of You".[10]

Colm McCarthy directed the episode. It took a month to film, with locations including Spain and Nevada, United States.[11][12] Hodge's scenes were shot in chronological order. During the first story, Rolo shows Dr. Dawson a pair of rats, for which stuffed frozen rats were used. The second story featured a graphic sex scene, which took a long time to film relative to its brief screentime. Scenes which relate to the plot twist of Nish's true intentions at the museum—such as her first sighting of the museum, her handing Rolo water and her entering the exhibit where her father is—were shot in many different ways. Wright played the early scenes as if Nish was the tourist she claims to be.[5]

Post-production

Brooker and executive producer Annabel Jones participated in the edit of the episode, aiming to find a more human side to Rolo's character at certain points, and omitting some of the darker moments.[5]

The music for the episode was composed by Cristobal Tapia de Veer, who commented on the score: "The beginning, discovering the Black Museum, that was going to set the tone for the rest of the show. The music morphed in many ways throughout the three stories, then goes back to where it started with the Black Museum, although with a sense of accomplishment, but also a sense of doom."[13]

Commentary by Charlie Brooker, Annabel Jones and Douglas Hodge

In May 2017, a Reddit post unofficially announced the names of the six episodes in series 4 of Black Mirror.[14] The first trailer for the series was released by Netflix on 25 August 2017.[15][16] Beginning on 24 November 2017, Netflix published a series of posters and trailers for the fourth series of the show, referred to as the "13 Days of Black Mirror".[17] The poster for "Black Museum" was released on 28 November and the trailer on 29 November.[18][19] On 6 December Netflix published a trailer featuring an amalgamation of scenes from the fourth series, which announced that the series would be released on 29 December.[20]

Cristobal Tapia de Veer's compositions for the episode were released through Lakeshore Records on 19 January 2018.[21] A music sampler was released earlier, on 27 December 2017, on his YouTube and SoundCloud accounts.[22][23]

Analysis

Sophie Gilbert of The Atlantic found that the episode's structure was very similar to the previous portmanteau instalment "White Christmas".[24] "Black Museum" has a linear narrative and Jacob Oller of Paste believed that the three stories are "darker and darker" as they progress.[25][26] Tasha Robinson of The Verge commented that it explores the genre of "traditional horror".[25][27] Louise Mellor of Den of Geek found it the "most cynical episode of the season".[28] Robinson said that the "storytelling style" is as in previous instalments, but not the "moral framework": rather than the notion that "people are terrible" or "technology is dangerous", it revolves around Rolo being "personally loathsome".[27] Mellor commented that the first story is "physically horrid", the second "wickedly cruel" and the third a "sad story" with "no laughs".[28] Reviewing the stories' tones, Robinson found the first to be "dim and claustrophobic", the second "naturalistic" and the last "shot with a grind house seediness".[27]

The episode was compared by Robinson to the 1990s horror anthology series Tales from the Crypt, with Rolo Haynes in a role similar to the cryptkeeper.[27] Christopher Hooton of The Independent compared its racial themes to the 2017 horror film Get Out.[29] The technology allowing Dr. Peter Dawson to experience other people's physical sensations was compared by Charles Bramesco of Vulture to the 19th century novella The Corsican Brothers, about a pair of formerly conjoined twins who can feel the other's pain.[30] Gabriel Tate of The Telegraph found the consciousness transfer into a person's brain to be similar to the comic strip series The Numskulls, where small beings maintain the characters' brains and bodies.[31] Mellor found the use of "(There's) Always Something There to Remind Me" in the ending to be a punchline characteristic of Black Mirror's fourth series.[28]

Rolo Haynes is a "stand-in narrator", according to Steve Green of IndieWire.[32] Bramesco called him a "storyteller" with a role similar to Matt Trent in "White Christmas".[30] Jason Parham of Wired found him to be "an opportunistic sociopath" like the 19th century circus owner P. T. Barnum.[25] Noel Ransome called Rolo "a figure of the white and the western, who senselessly use the black and the misguided for personal gain".[33] The ending saw Rolo the victim of the technology he had created, similar to Robert Daly's outcome in series four episode "USS Callister".[30] Convicted murderer Clayton Leigh's innocence was disputed by critics,[34] Zack Handlen of The A.V. Club finding him innocent but Tate believing it to be ambiguous.[31][35] Ransome wrote that he serves as "the standard black man", who "begins with enthusiasm and ends with exhaustion".[33] The ending can be interpreted as happy, with Rolo getting what he deserved.[35] Bramesco found that the programme "doesn't condemn" Nish, only the "ugly racism" of Rolo.[30] Parham found the story to be about "cruelty of the prison system" and saw Nish freeing her father as a symbolic act.[25] Greene called Nish's actions "an act of mercy" to Clayton.[32]

The episode includes Easter egg references to each of the 18 previous Black Mirror episodes, according to McCarthy; many were placed by set designer Joel Collins.[11] Gilbert said that this "seemed to definitively tie the Black Mirror universe together".[24] Collins said that he wanted to make the set a "hidden celebration of six years of Black Mirror".[5] For example, Jack is seen reading a comic showing plot points from "Fifteen Million Merits", and the museum's entrance includes a screen showing a picture of Victoria Skillane, a mannequin with a black balaclava and a white two-pronged symbol—all from "White Bear". The two rats shown to Dawson by Haynes are named Kenny and Hector, referencing the main characters from "Shut Up and Dance". The episode also makes multiple allusions to "San Junipero", including the company TCKR, a hospital named Saint Juniper's and Yorkie and Kelly's dresses being on display in the museum.[11][36]

The Black Museum is a name for a museum of crime artefacts at Scotland Yard in the United Kingdom.[24] Greene believed the museum served as an analogy to the series, which is about "finding addictive entertainment value in the plight of removed dystopias".[32] Many museum items are taken from previous episodes, for instance: an autonomous drone insect (ADI) from "Hated in the Nation"; the lollipop Daly uses to clone Walton's son in "USS Callister"; the tablet used by Marie in "Arkangel"; and the bloodied bathtub where Shazia's husband was murdered in "Crocodile".[11][36] Separately, one wall of the museum includes a number of death masks, which are busts of crew members.[37]

Reception
Letitia Wright received a Primetime Emmy Award nomination for her performance.

"Black Museum" received negative critical reception.[33] On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, it has an approval rating of 72%, based on 25 reviews.[38] It received ratings of three out of five stars in The Telegraph, a C+ in The A.V. Club and a C– in Entertainment Weekly.[31][35][39] Sonia Saraiya of Variety called it the "worst episode" of the series, Darren Franich of Entertainment Weekly finding it the "only outright stinker".[39][40] Handlen reviewed that its "obvious setups" led to the work lacking "surprise or insight", while Tate found that the characters were not developed well.[31][35] Robinson reviewed that despite themes of punitive justice and racism, the commentary was "too vague".[27] Contrastingly, Ransome found it the "most satisfying" instalment of the series, commenting that many reviewers "all seemed blind to the episode's overarching thesis on race".[33] Hooton opined that it was "very strong".[29]

Franich criticised that the episode's three stories are only "vaguely connected", Caroline Framke of Vox finding that "none particularly stand out".[34][39] Saraiya believed that the narrative requires "people repeatedly choosing to be stupid and/or evil".[40] Handlen called the stories "mean-spirited".[35] However, Hooton called the stories "engrossing".[29] Tate found the first to be "competent if predictable", though Gilbert reviewed that the homeless man's murder was "one of the most gratuitously violent scenes" in the show.[24][31] Tate found the second story the best, though Framke thought it "not especially convincing" and Bramesco believing Jack to be the "dumbest man in history" for agreeing to the consciousness transfer into his head.[30][31][34]

The final story and ending received mixed reception. Bramesco found that it "doesn't make a whole lot of sense in terms of storytelling" and Rebecca Nicholson of The Guardian thought it repeated previous themes of the series.[30][41] Gilbert said it "isn't exactly a satisfying conclusion"; on the other hand, Framke called it "incredibly satisfying".[24][34] Mellor found the twist to be "great" and "satisfying", though Tate thought only the reveal that Nish's mother's consciousness was inside her head was "genuinely unexpected".[28][31] Framke called the third story overall "deeply cruel and entirely believable".[34] Mellor commented that the ending was "happy" and "optimistic" and sees "justice done".[28]

McCarthy's role as director was praised by Tate, who said that he "directs with imagination throughout".[31] Oller approved of the episode's "clever visual effects" and use of props.[26] The acting received mixed reception, Tate calling them "serviceable although seldom spectacular."[31] Mellor found that Wright and Hodges offered "two excellent performances", with Gilbert finding Wright the "most compelling".[24][28] Oller thought that the dialogue was "clunky" in places.[26]

Episode rankings

"Black Museum" received largely poor rankings on critics' lists of the 23 instalments of Black Mirror, from best to worst:

Instead of by quality, Proma Khosla of Mashable ranked the episodes by tone, concluding that "Black Museum" is the 7th-most pessimistic episode of the show.[50]

Other reviewers ranked "Black Museum" against other series four episodes:
