@@thejquinn Copies? Seriously having a theme is a copy? That fucking ridiculous every single movie you like I can easily call a copy then. You're just searching for a reason to turn your nose up.
Jordan Peele is transforming what a quality horror movie is supposed to be. Two movies in a row that blows other people`s minds.....that to me is mind blowing
Vincent H. I respect your opinion but I disagree. Not about the JP stuff tho. The first Saw film. Revolutionary. The Conjuring. Next level. I think that film alone birthed this resurgence of great story telling and craftsmanship in the horror genre. Now, we could argue semantics and say that there have seen great horror movies sprinkled all over the place here (loved the babadook) or there (also loved hereditary) but The Conjuring turned the bus around in Hollywood I think. Plus...JPs being tapped to direct Akira. So, it’d be interesting to see them work together. Just saying.
In reference to Psycho and a movie that was able to pull off such a shocking twist with a star dying would be Scream. Drew Barrymore's character was featured heavily in the marketing campaign and within the first 10-15 minutes of the movie, she was brutally murdered. I don't think anyone expected that at the time.
I thought that too, but psycho made you feel comfortable with the protagonist because of how long it went without her dying. Drew barrymore died in the first scene. Still really effective, but she wasn’t given any opportunity to develop as a character. That’s on purpose though.
@@aquinoloayza8822 it's still a game changer of the genre no matter if you liked it or not.. It pointed out flaws of the genre and made the audience aware that the characters watch the stuff we watch and the knowledge of that wasn't gonna save them
The Shining movie doesn’t scare me. That’s the truth. It made me laugh. It’s still a good adaptation. By Stanley Kubrick. My favorite adapted version is the miniseries though. It creeped me out when I was younger. As for Misery and Pet Cemetery, I haven’t seen them. So I want to watch them when I get the chance. ^.^
Candyman is one of the most underrated films of all time. If you've never seen it, watch it. One of the most genuinely disturbing and unsettling films ever made.
Everyone is referencing Scream as the next film to kill off the "protagonist" early on but they forgot that Cravens A Nightmare on Elm Street did it as well. It makes you think Tina is the protagonist at first, until she gets "sliced and diced!"
When Jordan was talking about a main character dying unexpectedly, and how it hasn't been done as well since Psycho, I immediately thought about John Travolta's character, Vincent Vega from Pulp Fiction.
Vega’s death was right at the end of Pulp Fiction’s second act, so I wouldn’t say it was unexpectedly soon. If he died during the opening scene with him and Jules, then yes.
Exactly what Hollywood needs right now.. From the gremlins 2 sketch to get out and now us and the twilight zone Jordan peele is a very likeable, relatable talented unique person.. Its been a while till I've been this excited for what an artist does next..
While it's arguable whether or not Halloween is the greatest slasher of all time... I think everyone can universally agree that John Carpenter's masterpiece, in reality, is The Thing. Even when people state it's not their favorite Carpenter movie, have stated it's his best. Now, Peele might not have meant this when he said "masterpiece" but that's what (I feel) he implied. Could be wrong though.
The Thing is great but Halloween is moviemaking at it's finest. With that budget and 20 days of filming something extraordinary was created. Everyone in interviews like these mentions Halloween. The soundtrack, made in 3 days, the $2 mask, the camerawork, everything was a homerun. No gimmicks, no special effect just the bare essentials. It's so beautifully simple but effective. Like taste fear is subjective and differs from one person to the next so no point in arguing about how scary it is but just from a cinematic standpoint it's something every young filmmaker with no budget wishes he could create.
Refreshing to see a director who respects and loves the horror genre , who also doesn’t opt for the usual jump scare demon nonsense and instead strives for originality ! Extremely exited for Us I hope it’s just as gripping as get out if not more ! Good luck Jordan Peele
DayTripper exactly then you get people who completely don’t get horror at all saying that it wasn’t a good film 😴no appreciation for originality these days but I’m glad Jordan peele is bringing it back , a true visionary
@Burnintreez321I can still watch it cause it genuinely creeps me out every time. I personally like movies to have more clear endings cause when they don't they are usually too open ended and leave me with a feeling of dissatisfaction. I don't know if you have seen First Reformed but that movie would be an example.
I just want to take this time to say: Usually, it's weird and a little awkward just seeing someone try something new, especially something that is a 180 to what they're known for. For Mr. Peele here, going from comedy to this, definitely is a 180, however, it feels natural for some reason, in the best sense of the phrase possible. Another thing is that when you see an actor, you see them as how you've seen them (i.e. comedian-funny), and despite some changes, you will always see them as how you did, only acknowledging the change, not embracing it completely. I've watched Key and Peele since it started way back in 2012, so anytime I would see Jordan Peele, I would be like "Hey, its Jordan Peele, I love that guy! He's so fucking funny!!" Now, I see him and see both the new side and the familiar side, however, I've embraced both sides as equally as you can get. Trying something new is always a fear. Will it work? I like where I am now. etc. My point is, Jordan Peele is a treasure! Seeing Jordan's success, specifically, truly inspires me to try new things. Yes, it is a very common and almost cliche lesson rooted from inspiration, however, seeing where Jordan is now, basically quickly becoming, if he isn't already, the new Hitchcock AND also paving a new era of Horror...just after his directorial sophomore year!! HOLY SHIT!! Try new things, and if put your heart to it, it and you will be successful! JORDAN PEELE: Directorial Career: (2-2) Whole Career: (Infinity-infinity) Congratulations Jordan on your success thus far! Get Out was fantastic, as is Us. The Twilight Zone will definitely be fantastic! I hope success continues to come your way, for the many years to come!
Hearing Jordan match my sentiments about the original twilight zone series and the immense respect you can see he has for it just makes my heart so happy. I’ve said it since I found out he was remaking it, I don’t think there is anyone better suited or anyone I would trust (as a TZ lover) to remake this but him. I am so beyond excited for it. This man is a true legend in the making and bonafide genius.
Yeah, Scream was definitely a game changer, for the simple fact that it took all the classic slasher tropes, exploited them and turned them on their head @ the same time. Definitely should've been on this list.
Horror is going to be good again with him as a director because he understands the reason why people need these movies not only for the scares but the true meaning behind all the fear
Henry K. Hill a little bit of both. Very well made and pretty scary. I wasn’t terrified and I didn’t have nightmares but the music and the twins make it pretty creepy to watch
I don’t think Jordan has ever seen my films. He even admits it by saying nobody has killed a star early in a movie since Psycho but I killed Drew in 1996.
I remember what it was like when Psycho came out. It was a big deal. Movie theaters would advertise (as a publicity stunt, no doubt, but that wasn't obvious then) that they would have a doctor at the theater in case of heart attacks.
Jordan Peele is quickly becoming one of my favorite directors... His movies are thoroughly enjoyable, and so damn entertaining. Keanu is a guilty pleasure, for me, because it combines absurdity, satire, and comedy, with kittens. Sheer brilliance!!!
Can’t go wrong with that amazing, exceptional body of inspiration. The Twilight Zone is needed more than ever - something CBS doesn’t get with Star Trek.
You truly mastered comedy and now you have mastered horror I watched US Last night and I haven't enjoyed a movie like that in a long time especially a horror movie , I was on the edge of my seat and not in fear of confusion it was scarily enjoyable so many twists and turns and realizations about the movie and the world itself makes you really look at yourself and your decisions more than judging others freaky stuff loved it so much
I was too when he started talking more and more about Nightmare on Elm Street, but then I realized that he was making a comparison between the two, how Michael Myers isn’t necessarily as glamorized as someone like Freddy or Jason
About the black protagonist in horror, and a social commentary, maybe not a game changer but still a cool and twisted urban fairy tale/horror/comedy by master Wes Craven - People Under The Stairs. I am not able to say if it had any positive response among the African-American audience, as I am not American. But I can imagine that it could be a lot of fun for young black audience to see a smart black kid at last, as a main character saving the day. One thing abut The Night Of Living Dead by Romero too. Jordan says it had a huge impact because of the obvious reason, Romero chose a black actor in leading role, and it was a huge statement back in a day. However Romero said once in an interview he chose that actor not because he was black, but simply because he was a good actor. If you ask me that is even a bolder statement. Huge respect for Romero. It's the way it should be. Peace.
I would love to hear him talk about "The Haunting," which is purely supernatural, yet Robert Wise did play with the psychology of the protagonist's mind. Maybe he has already and I have not found it.
@@imsentinelprime9279 there's has been multiple studios who have paid for good reviews on some of their movies. Its been proven and completely true. Ghostbusters for example... many movies like that where the audience score isn't even close with the high critic score
Cant wait for a new scary movie with keeye and peele But holy moley i didn't know he starred in some horror movies, i was expecting like some comedy horror but no, it's cool.
He’s phenomenally talented but it’s sad he’s so obsessed with race. Peele said it was unfortunate that the killer in Candyman was black. What’s wrong with that? If it’s OK to have a white killer, then it should be OK to have a killer of other races, too.
@@Frederick0220 And he was made to be a sympathetic villian for loving a white woman. You'd think in today's climate he'd be praising that shit to the high heavens. lol
When you’re on the other side of oppression and the minority, you’d probably understand why he sees black representation as so important. That divide is real and he is on the forefront of closing it.
@@Kratoscat_ I am from a minority and we always get represented in a very stereotypical, mean way but we Asians don't care much about the things blacks whine about.
People need to stop expecting the next Get Out after watching Us A film can be good on its own terms and it helps no one when standards for sophomore projects are unfairly set
Peele is legit. His intelligence, work ethic, and sense of humor is a a powerful trio. Also, his perspective on bringing up important discussion through film is so refreshing
8:55 False he did not see the grandma outside the car door he saw the cyclist woman who had died in the accident, although he does talk with the grandma

Yeah, NO. It's like giving a child gunpowder and everyone just stands around to watch. I want to believe in him as a director but he's not there yet.

What he also speaks of but doesn't say directly is suspense, mystery and tension plus injections of humor are prime ingredients in Horror.

Hot take: Us is the best movie in this video
Spoiler warning!
2:35 They pulled it off in Hereditary imo
How the hell has he been doing exclusively comedy for so long? This guy is a genius
I do wish Scream was talked about
No the thing or the shining or jaws?
How the hell do you not talk about the exorcist? Its the GOAT of horror movies!
Jordan your movie 'Us' was Trippy i enjoyed the film
Ned Stark was killed in Season 1 of GOT
WHAT??!!
Who's giving this man a thumbs down?
Was hoping to see The Thing on here..Sad days.
Why couldn't he direct the Chucky remake??? At least hes doing the remake of Candyman
Bruh Jordan is writing and producing a candyman remake! Why are yall not going crazy I'm so fucking hype for this
Jordan Peele is a genius.
What about “The Shining”
I was bummed tarantino was retiring, but now i feel like we got our generation x replacement hero.
Of all the films mentioned, none of them are as good as "Get Out"
Where the hell is The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, the pinochle of Horror movies. I swear it always gets snubbed from these types of list.
Its a family film not a horror.
That's a documentary so it doesn't count
This guy understands horror
A bit odd that he omitted Jaws and The Shining since they were referenced in US, but otherwise this is a cool video.
No mention of the first Alien?
PLEASE DO A GARGOYLES REMAKE!!!!
He really sees color .
He’s phenomenally talented but it’s sad he’s so obsessed with race. Peele said it was unfortunate that the killer in Candyman was black. What’s wrong with that? If it’s OK to have a white killer, then it should be OK to have a killer of other races, too.
@@Frederick0220 And he was made to be a sympathetic villian for loving a white woman. You'd think in today's climate he'd be praising that shit to the high heavens. lol
When you’re on the other side of oppression and the minority, you’d probably understand why he sees black representation as so important. That divide is real and he is on the forefront of closing it.
Great point, Kevin! If he’s really for equality, then he should want all races to get their just opportunities.
@@Kratoscat_ I am from a minority and we always get represented in a very stereotypical, mean way but we Asians don't care much about the things blacks whine about.
excuse me, i have to go watch the sixth sense again now
I've found my new favorite creative. His Majesty Jordan Peele. 🦀🦀🦀😬🦀🌮🌮🦀
He is the biggest fan of Candyman.
Can't wait for his version.
YES BLAIR WITCH PROJECT! Definitely a game changer, if anything in terms of viral internet marketing.
People need to stop expecting the next Get Out after watching Us
A film can be good on its own terms and it helps no one when standards for sophomore projects are unfairly set
Thought it was better than Get Out. It's 1 of those movies that get better after you leave the theatre.

Peele is legit. His intelligence, work ethic, and sense of humor is a a powerful trio. Also, his perspective on bringing up important discussion through film is so refreshing
Thid is awesome tbh Jordan got me into Horrors. I love psychothrillers but couldnt watch them as a kid.
8:55 False he did not see the grandma outside the car door he saw the cyclist woman who had died in the accident, although he does talk with the grandma
L
O
Well candy man was a sympathetic villain
Nah, he deserved that shit
NOICE!
What about Jaws? First summer blockbuster
