  • When Get Out first hit theaters in 2017, it took the world by storm. Jordan Peele gave us a horror film unlike any we've ever seen before. Get Out was a story filled with social commentary, evil characters, and terrifying sequences like The Sunken Place. When Jordan Peele first crafted Get Out he knew it would change the game, but fans didn't know what to expect. But when Get Out finally hit theaters, and subsequently won an Academy Award one scene specifically stuck in the minds of audiences everywhere.

    this movie and scene completely changed my perspective on what a social thriller can be. a comedian directing this type of movie is perfect because humor and horror go so well together. the world can be incredibly scary and absurd, so finding a balance in both of them in life is where true art can be created. i wish hollywood would make movies like this more often and give people like jordan peele a chance to express their experience as a human. i remember being so blown away watching key and peele by how they could twist tragedy into comedy and entertainment and i believe that is why movies like get out are truly special.

    Ths movie has layers upon layers of subtext and symbolism so subtly displayed, that some people still fail to see it and call it "overrated", i remember having a discussion with a youtuber on the comments of his video saying how "Get Out" was so overrated because it played out just like any other horror movie, and he couldn't see how that's the whole point that's the genious of it, you have all this context and nuance wrapped on very familiar movie tropes that it will affect every person in a whole different way.

    It was all so creepy. The scene where the white woman touches his arm and says he’s so strong unlocked a lot of memories of when I was a swimmer when my friends’ moms would do that (and one dad). I didn’t think anything of it when I was that age, but seeing it in the movie almost made me have a panic attack.
    What was worse, I was almost hypnotized. The sunken place view was what I started to see before I decided I did not want to “go”. It was weird that he used that “theatre of the mind” view because it was oddly accurate to being “pulled away” by hypnosis. My friend right next to me was hypnotized though and they made him dance like a stripper amongst other things he has no memory of.
    It was so terrifying. I really thank god I could pull myself out of it or I would’ve had to stop watching the movie totally. I will not lie, I am one of like two black guys in the neighborhood I live in, and I stopped walking my dogs late out of fear of being abducted and “got out”.
    Did not enjoy the movie at all, 10/10 horror film.

    I could only handle seeing this movie once. It put on display my paranoias and assumption about ultra friendly white people. Because black have been victims of white for half a Millenia, a mistrust and paranoia gets passed down. We expect them to unleash cruelty that when they are being nice it's hard to believe. It's inherited trauma. Much like of a person was repeatedly mistreated by a particular gender, they tend to have a mistrust for that gender no matter what. I have white ancestry but that white ancestry was Irish and Scottish slaves, so the whites in my particular Caribbean culture don't feel threatening to me. Even though I work and make friends with white people for years... I swear when they are being ultra nice it makes me nervous.

This movie didn't give off that mood of "I'm scared of this." I felt the suspense for sure and the anxious feeling of "what's going to happen next?" But it never gave me that scary feeling of suspense when watching. It was almost an action movie type of feeling of suspense. Like, when is he going to break free and start killing his way out. Which he somewhat did. I can ALMOST get a feeling like with the first "Hostel" movie, but it just fell short of that. Sorry for the long reply.
