Chris and his girlfriend Rose go upstate to visit her parents for the weekend. At first, Chris reads the family's overly accommodating behavior as nervous attempts to deal with their daughter's interracial relationship, but as the weekend progresses, a series of increasingly disturbing discoveries lead him to a truth that he never could have imagined.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A meticulously constructed trap that builds from social discomfort into genuine dread, using horror to interrogate race, family dynamics, and the violence hidden beneath polite surfaces. You'll spend the film's entire runtime knowing something is wrong before you understand how catastrophically wrong.

Reviews
Just as fantastic the second time around. The tension and suspense as the viewer tries to figure out what's happening along with Chris is so well done. You're solving the mystery together.
Favorite (Not Necessarily Best) Four From Every Year Since Birth
If you haven't watched this because you already know the twist, it is still a five star watch if you are spoiled. The execution is perfect. I would even recommend this to people who don't like horror movies. It transcends the genre.
There's a scene in Girls where Marnie (Allison Williams) sings an indie girl version of Kanye West's "Stronger" to a party full of rich white folks because the song is "really meaningful to [her]", and I like to think Jordan Peele saw that and said, "We've found our Rose."
