Chicago – When he got his chance, writer/director Jordan Peele (“Key & Peele”) completely understood what he had to do – combine his skewered hilarity, love of horror movies and true social conscience, and put them all into one great movie. Ladies and germs, “Get Out.”
Rating: 4.5/5.0
The title is a riff on an old Eddie Murphy routine, as in, “a black man would never stay in the ‘Amityville Horror’ house, they would ‘tip out the door’ as soon as they heard the house say, ‘Get Out!’” Peele combines this with a “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” (50th Anniversary) vibe, as a African American photographer meets his white girlfriend’s upper middle class parents. Through the brilliant filter of Mr. P, the whole atmosphere of the film is so funny, so chilling and so knowing that it joins the rare company of the horror film that actually means something. If you...

Looking at the trailer quite a bit could go wrong and especially with Get Out having been produced by Blumhouse’s Jason Blum, as well as Sean McKittrick (Donnie Darko, Bad Words) a visit to the more sinister, creepy and downright frightening town upstate could be one romantic weekend away with girlfriend Rose (Allison Williams, Girls), Chris (Daniel Kaluuya, Sicario) would wholeheartedly regret. A predominately white town, run by a white cult with a strange control of the African-American’s of the town… Could Chris be next on their list?...
