Amazing Thriller, with a necessary theme behind it

Rating: 10/10 (16 April 2017)

I absolutely love this film! It rolls out a story that many can relate to. Not every parent likes hearing the news that their child is dating someone of a different race, and this movie portrays the struggles and inner turmoil that many interracial couples have to face. Of course, the movie is also a horror film, so there's a deeper story as to why Rose's family acts so weird around Chris. It turns out that Rose has had many African American boyfriends before Chris, and the sole purpose is to lure them in so that the family can harvest their brain to certain attributes that they otherwise could not have. The twist is a great one, while many could've guessed that Rose was involved, the movie plays this twist out to great lengths even adding in some of the household help too. The movie also added some key elements of things we see in society every day, such as when the cop pulled them over near the beginning of the film and ended up interrogating Chris even though he wasn't even driving. I think Jordan Peele's debut into directing went very smoothly and I think this is a must-see for everyone!
