- When Get Out first hit theaters in 2017, it took the world by storm. Jordan Peele gave us a horror film unlike any we've ever seen before. Get Out was a story filled with social commentary, evil characters, and terrifying sequences like The Sunken Place. When Jordan Peele first crafted Get Out he knew it would change the game, but fans didn't know what to expect. But when Get Out finally hit theaters, and subsequently won an Academy Award one scene specifically stuck in the minds of audiences everywhere.

Are there any other Horror scenes you'd like us to break down?
I would really like a break down of Civil war and how the Jesse Plemons scene (if u know u know) creates tension and horror :)
Great idea.
@@Nerdstalgic It's terrifying because its TRUE. Reading what white American folks did to black people in history makes this scene super scary
When the 2nd Joo Dee appeared in Avatar The Last Airbender, and the Lake Laogai horrors. When a children's cartoon became a horror thriller for one episode.
Love this.
Man…cannot believe how insane that scene was. He played it so very well.
First time seeing it was wild
@@Nerdstalgicreally and truly!
Every time I watch anything with Daniel Kaluuya, I wonder how does he not get more work? He's absolutely brilliant, just an amazing actor.
Totally agree. One of the most underrated actors out there. Maybe he's just more specific on what roles he wants/takes. He crushes everything he does.
Probably to avoid all the fame. Hollywood has been on some BS lately.
He’s a dark skinned black man. Very difficult for him to get roles unless he just wants to play gangsters his entire career. Unfortunately that’s the reality of being a Black actor in this industry. It doesn’t see talent first, it sees looks and aesthetics. (From a Black person)
Y’all know why. Hollywood would rather push the Austin Butlers and the Timothee Chalamets etc
Peele revived the horror genre in his own unique way
Not really, he’s overrated and a one trick pony
watching this for date night in an interracial relationship hits different 😂
😂😂
When I first watched this was in the theater while being in an interracial relationship. I feel you. This movie hit differently.
I’ve been in an interracial relationship for over 13 years. When we saw this my partner was EXTREMELY uncomfortable. Meanwhile, I was screaming in my head “EXACTLY!!”
Same for me. My wife would try to troll me by saying the line “I’d have voted for Obama a third time if I could”.
this movie and scene completely changed my perspective on what a social thriller can be. a comedian directing this type of movie is perfect because humor and horror go so well together. the world can be incredibly scary and absurd, so finding a balance in both of them in life is where true art can be created. i wish hollywood would make movies like this more often and give people like jordan peele a chance to express their experience as a human. i remember being so blown away watching key and peele by how they could twist tragedy into comedy and entertainment and i believe that is why movies like get out are truly special.
Your video essays are so poignant and insightful that they most often make me think about my life. This was a piercing, thought-provoking review.
Hollywood needs auteurs like Jordan Peele more than ever
100% Agree
Get Out is one of my mosft favorite movies of all time in the genre, but I believe Peeel`s other movies and ideas didn`t land as good as Get Out.
I really liked both Us and Nope, but I would agree that Get Out is still his crowning achievement
@@mrshadow2514 yeah cuz he's obsessed with racism
@@mrshadow2514I've seen both, and I agree that while they're good, and while Us is horrifying, get out is still his best work
Crazy how the term "sunken place" immediately went into the cultural zeitgeist and hasn't really left. People still say it pretty often, just shows how effective this scene and movie was
Absolutely agree
Literally never heard it
@@kylespevak6781 Listen more then, idk
@@kylespevak6781 You're not the only one. First time I've heard it too.
Was actually thinking about this film
I never saw the Sunken Place this way, but thank you for alerting me to what my subconscious sensed when watching it. Please keep up the great work!
Great video breakdown and amazing film. Old Boy and Parasite were 2 other films that left me silent in seat haunted
Great video.
Ths movie has layers upon layers of subtext and symbolism so subtly displayed, that some people still fail to see it and call it "overrated", i remember having a discussion with a youtuber on the comments of his video saying how "Get Out" was so overrated because it played out just like any other horror movie, and he couldn't see how that's the whole point that's the genious of it, you have all this context and nuance wrapped on very familiar movie tropes that it will affect every person in a whole different way.
Completely agree with this take. I guess somethings just go over most people's heads.
@@Nerdstalgic Rather, people don't _want_ to understand it, because that would involve recognizing the message of the movie. A message that upsets them.
@@fireazawell said
This scene is how smoking salvia felt, but tripping
Now I want a video on Nope.
The final scene also hits very different. It sums up racism without really doing anything. Such a strong moment.
So glad he didn't stay with the original ending.
I especially liked when Black-Ish paid homage to this scene.
Masterpiece.
Mannn watching this scene off of shrooms was a crazy experience
This the best horror movie of 2017
I'm shocked you're just NOW making this video.
ADD - Executive dysfunction IRL. Actually a good description of feeling stuck
Its awesome seeing Daniel go from bbc comedy playing a character called Tealeaf to becoming a hollywood star
That GotDayum spoon!
"camera pans down"? cameras tilt up and down.
The way I was TENSED up during this scene in Get Out.
The entire theater was! Such a phenomenal scene.
@@Nerdstalgic yes! It’s such a great attention grabber of a scene
Get Out? Not when Nerdstalgic posts a video.
Nailed it.
Very chlling
the sunken place is what depersonalisation feels like, and how I feel when I smoke weed i hate it so much
Definitely chlling
Whoever is complaining about this video in the comments or gave it a thumbs down, probably never experienced racism or some sort of prejudice
🙌
So anyone who doesn’t like this is racist?! What a silly take
Theres that, and then the people who just think racism isn't real. Or that it is, but happy about it.
Idk I don’t think everyone experiences racism quite like it is depicted either
Haha what a corny comment.
Changed the thumbnail already? Weird.
The moment another man, "owned"by a white woman, manages to lean forward just a bit and says the single word "Run". It's all he can do.
Our protagonist of course doesn't understand.
But I keep hoping he goes back with whatever it will take to rescue that man too.
I'm still more terrified of the way the snowbunny ate cereal. Pure psychopath stuff, give me the sunken place all day over that lady
the best part about that scene was the fact that people thought her eating the cereal seperate from the milk was bc she wanted "the colors and whites separate" and when jordan was told about that he thought it was amazing bc he thought it was just a creepy way to eat cereal- i LOVE unintentional symbolism
One of the best films I've seen it made me realize the worst monsters are humans afterall.
It's not real lol
@@liquidsunshine697 no, but reality can be far worse.
Lovecraft Country really turns that up to 11.
@@charliericker274 u scared of whitey
GET OUT
Didnt know this film was made by Peele
as a small business owner i was afraid of this movie for a whole different reason
What reason was that?
@@Nerdstalgic I can't say, they will come for me again
Lmfao what
It was all so creepy. The scene where the white woman touches his arm and says he’s so strong unlocked a lot of memories of when I was a swimmer when my friends’ moms would do that (and one dad). I didn’t think anything of it when I was that age, but seeing it in the movie almost made me have a panic attack.
What was worse, I was almost hypnotized. The sunken place view was what I started to see before I decided I did not want to “go”. It was weird that he used that “theatre of the mind” view because it was oddly accurate to being “pulled away” by hypnosis. My friend right next to me was hypnotized though and they made him dance like a stripper amongst other things he has no memory of.
It was so terrifying. I really thank god I could pull myself out of it or I would’ve had to stop watching the movie totally. I will not lie, I am one of like two black guys in the neighborhood I live in, and I stopped walking my dogs late out of fear of being abducted and “got out”.
Did not enjoy the movie at all, 10/10 horror film.
This is not even one of Jordan Peeles most terrifying scenes. I think that prize would go to The Star Lasso Experience scene or Gordys Massacre scene in Nope.
There were some truly terrifying scenes in Nope too. That Gordy scene would make for a great breakdown as well.
@@Nerdstalgic please do this at some point!
it’s wild to me that you can make a video on Get Out and not say Black once. it’s not just about “people of color,” it’s specifically about BLACK PEOPLE. and anti Black racism! please name it and don’t be shy or don’t make a video if you’re not prepared to discuss why it was actually so terrifying
I could only handle seeing this movie once. It put on display my paranoias and assumption about ultra friendly white people. Because black have been victims of white for half a Millenia, a mistrust and paranoia gets passed down. We expect them to unleash cruelty that when they are being nice it's hard to believe. It's inherited trauma. Much like of a person was repeatedly mistreated by a particular gender, they tend to have a mistrust for that gender no matter what. I have white ancestry but that white ancestry was Irish and Scottish slaves, so the whites in my particular Caribbean culture don't feel threatening to me. Even though I work and make friends with white people for years... I swear when they are being ultra nice it makes me nervous.
1:39 - 70's thrillers? Rosemary's Baby was 60's; Posession was 80's.
Only Stepford was 70's. C'mon, man.
Say what you will, but the noise of the teaspoon annoyed the f*** outta me. Instead of relaxing me, it frustrated me beyond belief. I have misophonia, so it made me want to punch something
I haven't heard anyone else say this, but I also experience misophonia, and the frustration I experience at the thought of hearing that sound while someone very calmly takes away my autonomy fills me with horror and rage beyond almost anything else I can imagine. This scene was so well done. It made me feel emotions that no other horror movie I can think of right now has ever made me feel
Theres alot of ignorance in these comments. And like the film went way over yalls heads. Sigh.
It’s alright
Did you like any of Peele's other movies?
I didn't love the movie, it just lost too much realism especially in this scene. Also it's a bit preachy so was kinda blah to me. Think it resonates with Americans more generally than others.
obviously dingus 💀 it’s about the black american experience. that’s like me saying french film was bad bc i watched it without subtitles or dubbing. it’s my fault for either a. watching something i had no knowledge of prior. or b. i took no effort whatsoever in educating myself or even better just watching the movie as a movie not tryna make it a think piece
Honestly, I was expecting a little more
Or at least to be a little more complex, like OLDBOY
Did you like any of Peele's other movies?
@@Nerdstalgic I liked US and loved NOPE
Nope was incredible. Hopefully it's not too much longer before he directs again.
Movie is creepy bc I been there, done that with white people.
I must not have been the targeted demographic because I not only put this movie at a 3/10 it wasn't even scary...
What kind of horror movies do you like?
“Scary” is very subjective
It's okay to be wrong
This movie wasn't scary and definitely isn't a horror movie. It had great suspense, atmosphere, and terrific acting. But it wasn't scary at all. It's just a lot of suspense and a decent ride of a movie.
I feel a lot of great horror fits into that bucket, what do you consider a horror movie?
You must be white
It’s about a mad scientist that swaps people’s brains out. That’s body horror.
@@Nerdstalgic a lot of my favorites can be pretty gory. Like saw or from dusk til dawn. There's also cheap scares, but still with its mood and tone of scaryness like in paranormal activity. This movie didn't give off that mood of "I'm scared of this." I felt the suspense for sure and the anxious feeling of "what's going to happen next?" But it never gave me that scary feeling of suspense when watching. It was almost an action movie type of feeling of suspense. Like, when is he going to break free and start killing his way out. Which he somewhat did. I can ALMOST get a feeling like with the first "Hostel" movie, but it just fell short of that. Sorry for the long reply. Im not saying it was bad, but a lot of people say how scary this was, and I just felt like when people said the same thing about the babadook. The suspense was there, but this isn't scary at all.
@@NickolasNameolas I just didn't get that horror movie feel from it. It just felt like a lot of suspense. I can't explain it. As I'm talking about this, I can take back my saying it's not a horror movie. But it didn't deliver in the "scary" department.
It's a horrible movie that I haven't been able to watch again. Somehow it reminds me of the movie Under the skin.
The "woke mind virus" people went in here, disliked, then left. Very sjw, very Ohio.
cringe
How was it cringe?
This movie was so overrated. What a pos.
I mean it did win an Oscar for best Original Screenplay and was nominated for Best Picture. What didn't you like about it?
@@Nerdstalgic it was super obvious what was going to happen and the lead character easily escaped without much happening. It was not thrilling, scary, or funny. It seemed like hollywood was more interested in celebrating the director’s race and not his actual ability.
Ouch @@bltvd
So you didn't understand the movie? That's fine.
@@Nerdstalgic no, i fully understood it😆it was not a David Lynch film. It was a obvious movie made for the lowest common denominator audience. Some movies are just bad and wrongly celebrated. What did you find so appealing about it?
