With only a 5 million dollar in budget director Jordan Peete did so well on his first movie that it actually got him an Oscar. The only familiar face you will see in this movie is Daniel Kaluuya who is famous for his Black Mirror episode and Black Panther ( Black Panther was released after get out so it doesn't really count ) who played role of Chris Washington.

The movie starts with a conversation between Chris and his girlfriend , Rose ( Allison Williams) with their plan to meet Rose’s parent as they have reached the ‘dinner with parents’ milestone in their relation. They make a plan of a weekend get together in rose’s family home. After Chris reaches there he becomes a little disturbed by Rose’s parents behavior. And then he learns that Rose’s mother is psychiatrist and is able to hypnotize people, which starts some linear events causing some very horrific notions.

Now this a horror movie but not a typical one like The Paranormal Activities. The genre is horror thriller with a little bit of mystery . With that little budget this movie almost hit the 250 million dollar mark. But the core of it is the dark humor comic relief director Jordan added which gave this movie a new length. You could notice this in every cell phone conversation this movie has.
