Get Out
Satirical horror and astute social commentary combine in Jordan Peele’s seat-gripping suspense thriller, starring Daniel Kaaluuya.
Horror 2017 104 mins
Director: Jordan Peele
Overview
Young couple Chris (Daniel Kaaluuya) and Rose (Alison Williams) reach the ‘meet-the-parents milestone’ of their relationship, and go to spend a weekend with Rose’s parents, Missy and Dean (Keener and Whitford). They fall over themselves to appear warm and welcoming, a behaviour Chris takes as clumsy attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship. But as the weekend progresses, some increasingly disturbing incidents lead him to believe there’s something dark lurking under their picture-perfect suburban family.
Writer-director Jordan Peele, best known for his comedy career as one half of sketch duo Key & Peele, has crafted a perfect horror film for modern times. Drawing inspiration from classics of the genre, from Rosemary’s Baby to Night of the Living Dead, Get Out is a precisely crafted satirical horror, combining incisive social commentary on race with genuine, seat-gripping suspense.
