I’m with Anthony on the waste of suspense that is the alien prank. The Gordy scenes aren’t suspenseful because we already know everyone besides Steven Yeun died, so if we know that and we know he survived, there’s no suspense. But seeing these dark figures mysteriously show up in the barn, in such a well shot scene, having it lead up to a cheap joke was just a bummer. Honestly no other scenes in the movie are as suspenseful because everything else kinda falls into the monster movie formula.
Let’s goooooo, this is probably my second favorite Jordan Peele movie behind Get Out, but way above Us lol. Awesome review!!
