Black out a PDF used as slide show

When using a PDF as a slide show presentation (by utilizing "Full Screen View"), is there a way to replicate the PowerPoint "B" key functionality, where if the "B" key on the keyboard is pressed, the slide show is "blacked out"? If not the "B" key, is there another way to achieve the "black out"?
Thank you for your response.

You could always bring another PDF to the forefront. Or better yes, create a black page. Then place an invisible button on every slide that navigates to the black page.

But there's no built-in functionality for screen blanking.
