Acerca desta película

When Chris (Daniel Kaluuya), a young African-American man, visits his white girlfriend's (Allison Williams) family estate, he becomes ensnared in the more sinister, real reason for the invitation. 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 could have never imagined. This speculative thriller from Blumhouse (producers of The Visit, Insidious series and The Gift) and the mind of Jordan Peele (Key & Peele) is equal parts gripping thriller and provocative commentary. - ( Original Title - Get Out )

Definitely different, an absolutely original and terrifying story-line in more ways than one. Because of the subject matter, this film could have easily become a ridiculous and cringe-worthy horror flick, but instead, it managed to keep me on edge for its entirety and didn't bore me with over the top stereotypes and predictable cliched characters. I'd be happy to watch it again.

Good dark, thinking comedy. Definitely not all horror bar the latter end, compared to some of the other atrocities the USA has come up with in which I have ran out of theaters and they weren't even classified as horror, but I didn't watch the R rated version. I may be wrong but to me this was a modern take on slavery in which the methods have changed but the premise remains (given you strip back the standardised USA melodrama of the flick). Although as a white westerner from a european background who thinks we're all hypnotised slaves to some extent, I appreciate the african amercian perspective was a facet that needed to be told and resonated with Peele, possibly out of frustration as very little has changed in amercia, only morphed into something that is just as sinister (I mean the racism, not the gore), but not as obvious. The protagonist, as with the marginalised african americans in the new united states have all become both loved and hated at the same time, idealised yet marginalised and the obvious undercurrent of non acceptance dressed in a big bright politically correct bow is intelligently reflected in this movie although it tried to pile on comedy and some layers of different genres. Did it go too far to make a point? Yes....but would it have been accepted any other way?
