WHAT’S ON

THE MIND IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE

GET OUT

3D IN CERTAIN CINEMAS

RELEASE DATE 17 MARCH / Director Jordan Peele / Starring Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Catherine Keener / Genre Horror, Thriller

From the creative mind of Jordan Peele and innovative production company Blumhouse (the Insidious series, The Gift, and The Visit) comes a horror that’s equal parts gripping thriller and provocative commentary. Get Out tells the story of a young African-American man who visits his white girlfriend’s family estate and becomes ensnared in a more sinister real reason for the invitation. Now that Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) and his girlfriend, Rose (Alison Williams), have reached the meet-the-parents milestone of dating, she invites him for a weekend getaway upstate with Missy (Catherine Keener) and Dean (Bradley Whitford). At first, Chris reads the family’s overly accommodating behaviour 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 could have never imagined. 8 March / April 2017
