For this year’s 31 Nights of Horror Challenge, the Day 5 prompt is Jordan Peele. I watched the new movie, Get Out on Amazon Prime Video.

Storyline

Chris and his girlfriend Rose go upstate to visit her parents for the weekend. At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter’s interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined.

Our Thoughts of Get Out (2017)

I really enjoy this movie. Jordan Peele is one of my favorite horror directors and he is masterful. There is just so much here that it is a great movie to get you thinking.

Trivia 

The opening of the film is partially inspired by the opening of Halloween (1978), which Jordan Peele described as a subversion of “the perfect white neighborhood.”

Jordan Peele said the title is also a reference to what he often hears black audiences shout at the screen while watching horror films: Yelling at a character to “Get out!” In this movie Rod and Andre both say it to Chris.

Jordan Peele made the sound when the deer gets hit by the car.
