The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Get Out (2017)

Starring: Daniel Kaluuya, Alison Williams, Bradley Whitford, Catherine Keener, Caleb Landry Jones, Stephen Root, Lakeith Stanfield, LiRel Howery, Betty Gabriel
Director: Jordan Peele

Premise:
A Caucasian girl brings her new African American boyfriend home to meet the parents. Soon it becomes obvious to the boyfriend that family might not be what it appears.

My Take:
The movie does a great job of creating tension and dread. You feel a twist is coming but I never guessed exactly what it was. A great cast all around helps to keep the story feeling grounded.

Rating: So Good
