Product Overview

Rife with symbolism and social commentary, Jordan Peele's debut feature effectively employs and subverts well-worn horror tropes, constituting a work that is as entertaining as it is politically charged. As Anthony Carew explores, the film functions as both a scathing satire of liberal racism and an evocation of the everyday fears that African-American people must endure.
