Jordan Peele
When director and writer Jordan Peeleâs very excellent horror film Get Out debuted earlier this year  its prescient symbolism and social commentary spawned dozens of fan theories online ranging from serious to outlandish.
Now  in a video segment for Vanity Fair   Peele  addresses the theories head-on  and in doing so  confirmed that he paid homage to Stanley Kubrickâs legendary horror film The Shining with an Easter egg hidden in a scene in Get Out.
Responding to Reddit user BonnieLinnette who queried  Peele  about a scene where an announcement is made in the background for âFlight 237 â which she noted is the same number as the most haunted room number in The Shining. In response   Peele  confirmed that the filmâs use of the number is no coincidence.
âThatâs right  thatâs what we call a little Easter egg for the Kubrick fans  really easy one to do â  Peele  said.
