Emmy Award wining comedian Jordan Peele of “Key & Peele” is giving the scary stuff a shot in a new film called “Get Out,” which he wrote and directed.

The movie, starring Daniel Kaluuya and Allison Williams, is about a young, interracial couple who go to visit the girl’s parents for the first time since beginning their relationship. The trailer shows Williams’ character worrying about the visit because his girlfriend didn’t mention he was black beforehand.
If one thing is made clear in the mysterious trailer it’s that Williams’ character, Chris, isn’t welcome at his girlfriend’s parents home or in the town at all.
Peele’s “Get Out” is nothing like the comedian’s Comedy Central show. This eerie thriller is more likely to have you hunker down in your seat in fear, than roll around on the floor in laughter.
