Don't Date White Girls If You're a Black Guy

Rating: 9/10 (13 November 2019)

A young black man is invited by his white girlfriend to visit her well-off folks out at the outskirts. The man's apprehension at such a scenario is suspended at first by the bucolic scenery and the seemingly genuine friendliness of the girl's parents. Little by little though his initial concerns are triggered by events that are difficult to comprehend. Strange occurrences, bizarre people and a growing sense of unease force the man to leave. What transpires are a series of scenes straight out of a nightmare which the unfortunate guy will never forget. Well acted and directed, "Get Out" is an amusing and highly viewable film that seamlessly blends the Horror genre with social issues. And the film is in clear and attractive color that makes one appreciate the beauty of modern technology unlike the ugly and grimy wannabe retro-looking flicks that have plagued cinema since the start of the millennium. Whether you see this film as praise or criticism of the modern era it'll certainly keep you entertained. Beware of what lurks in those pretty suburban areas...
