Looks awesome, really looking forward to this.

The "I got 5 on it" sampling was spot on.

is Jordan peele trying to corner the "black horror movie" genre like Tyler Perry tried with Black comedy?

Aside from the song (great song, btw) I don't see what else would be required to have it be a "black" movie vs. just happening to have black folks in the movie.

Put in white people, same dialogue/script (minus the song!) and it is still creepy as fuck. This isn't Scary Friday After Next or something; it's a pretty standard idea that just happens to have a black family as the focus.

HOWEVER; that may be his goal. We'll see~

I'll be the naysayer here, I think that trailer showed too much.

their white family friends in the beginning will likely be the cause of whatever created the double family and the motive will definitely be racism

Looks creepy as fuck. I always wonder how crazy kids that end up acting in these kind of movies go. Shit has to fuck with their heads a little bit.

visually impressive.

Family could be white... doesn't have to be. It's the same movie either way. Some of the specific jokes and situations will be different.

Seems all good to me.

I don't know that there are any "black" movies in the genre at all, really. A few blacksploitation ones. By all means, add some.

Really liked this. Not really a horror movie,more of a thriller. The story has a few holes but overall very enjoyable with some great acting.

Forgot about this. Guess it was released already, wasn't it. Looks decent enough. Might be promising.

It had its moments, but it was pretty clear from early on where this was heading. Acting was, for the most part, pretty awesome.

I thought it was a really fun film for horror fans. Lots of scenes were deliberate people pleasers, and the acting was great with a pretty original plot.
