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.

Can we offer you a seat and a cup of tea? Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew: Ian, Liam, and Ethan, (Georgia's got a weekend shift at the TSA) as we're driving to upper-middle class homesteads to meet the family. We're quitting smoking in our 146th episode as we discuss:

  • The metaphors that Jordan Peele was trying to express in the film
  • We gush over the acting quality throughout the film
  • Ethan shares us some alternate filmed endings and we pitch some of our own
  • We do discuss whether the film drops the ball in the 3rd act
  • We ask what's more important, the message you want to give or telling a cohesive story?
  • Ian's in full teacher mode as we discuss narrative perspective and the 4 possible readings you can have of a text
  • We discuss our feelings on horror movies and if this is even a horror film
  • Whether or not Get Out is the Best Film Ever
