Is Get Out a horror film, a comedy ... or a documentary?
Get Out, a speculative thriller from Blumhouse (producers of The Visit,
Insidious series and The Gift) and the mind of Jordan Peele, when a
young African-American man visits his white girlfriend’s family estate,
he becomes ensnared in a more sinister real reason for the invitation.
Now that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya, Sicario) and his girlfriend, Rose
(Allison Williams, Girls), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone
of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy
(Catherine Keener, Captain Phillips) and Dean (Bradley Whitford, The
Cabin in the Woods).
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.
Equal parts gripping thriller and provocative commentary, Get Out is
written and directed by Peele (Key and Peele) and produced by
Blumhouse’s Jason Blum, as well as Sean McKittrick (Donnie Darko, The
Box), Peele and Edward H. Hamm Jr. (The Box, Bad Words). The film also
stars Caleb Landry Jones (X-Men series), Milton “Lil Rel” Howery (The
Carmichael Show), Betty Gabriel (The Purge: Election Year), Marcus
Henderson (Pete’s Dragon) and Keith Stanfield (Straight Outta Compton).
