Que Horror!

Only 5C temperature today. It's impossible right? At this time of the year, month of May 2020. To think that we have to reheat the house once again as if still is winter time, that's absurd.

I should not complain because too much already of the problems we are currently having because of the pandemic that wont stop. The daily briefing of the progress of coronavirus and the manifestation of the devil. Wow! It's like the Korean/Chinese  teledrama on TV.

While searching for the telecast of SNL = Saturday Night Live but can't find it last night. What happened? usually it airs on Saturday night but it's not there on prime channel where it usually appears. Weird. Since our PVR box was replaced by new PVR something very, very strange happening and there are times our TV screen flickers which never happened before with the previous PVR box.

While in search for SNL, happened to see a movie entitled GET OUT. The story is not just ordinary, it is very unusual. It begins with Chris getting ready for that travel with his girlfriend Rose. 



Rose petting Chris's dog while waiting for her boyfriend packing some stuff, reminds him of his toothbrush and deodorant to bring, etc, etc.

Rose feeling happy that Chris will meet her parents.

Chris phoned his best friend Williams who worked for TSA and informed him of his travel with Rose to meet her family. Williams asked if Rose's parents knew that he is black. His friend can't believe that a black man had fallen in love with a white Caucasian woman or a gorgeous white woman will have fallen in love with his friend. Yeah, even black people thought that's really very strange indeed.
On the way to Rose's family home, they had an accident and their front car got damaged. They accidentally and fatally hit a deer on the road. They informed the accident and the man in uniform came to ask questions and asked for their identity. Rose's reacted when the police officer asked for Chris's identification card (license card) even if he is not the driver. Rose's thought that was sort of racism or discrimination. Anyway, Rose's seem banal, saintly and innocent through all the days that Chris has stayed in Rose's childhood family home whose parents are bit weird. Maybe too weird for Chris because Rose's mother is a psychiatrist and the father is a doctor/surgeon which was not mentioned beforehand. Chris probably felt uneasy that a wealthy family and a gorgeous woman like Rose will fall for him. ? Whatever. So everything in that house seems odd, including the helpers or servants who are black. Rose's father mentioned that they were their servants since their parents were alive and they have to keep them. Chris had his first taste of hypnotism when Rose's mother started stirring a cup of tea and put Chris in hypnotic state. Unbelievable but that works for Chris.
Chris thought it was some sort of nightmare. The next morning, group of people started arriving at Rose's home. They were group of couples, older seniors. Chris started using his camera and took photos of them. He recognized one black person from the rest of those white guests at the party. He seems odd when he exchange pleasantries and then the man's wife came to take him with her. Some older women flirted with Chris, touching his body and they looked at Chris as if he is a piece of meat. One lone man was  seated by himself and he knew Chris even if he is blind. Chris went inside the house and found that his cellphone is unplugged once again, he became very suspicious. He took his cellphone and took photo of the black man married to a white female guest. However, the black man got pissed, his nose bleeding and became violent confronted Chris and hit him. Rose's parents stopped the assault, later on the black guy apologized for his sudden outburst of temper. Rose and Chris left the house, away from the crowd and talked things over. While Rose's dad is doing an auction at the gazebo with a big photo on stand of Chris and the guests seem to play Bingo. Bingo? Auction? What the hell is that? I know, can sense that there is something sinister about almost everything. Chris tried to call his friend Williams and sent photo of the black guy married to the older white woman. Williams search for him in the internet and found that the guy was missing for so many months. Williams tried to contact Chris but he cannot get in through his cellphone and he became worried sick and thus made him report it to the police. However, nobody believes him, he is a TSA officer and they didn't give him credit. Those black men and black woman who worked for the police department didn't believe Williams, a TSA officer, a black guy and how you an ordinary citizen be believable or what is believable? A gorgeous white woman abducted a black man and the black man missing? Impossible! How could that happened? The next scenes are full of adrenaline rush to get out while he can to stay alive.

The movie GET OUT was one of the suspense thrillers written and directed by Jordan Peele. He is known for the weird, horror movie "US."
