This scene instantly struck a chord with the audience in the theater.
"FUCK the police! He didn't do anything wrong, why should they investigate him?"
"Kill him! He shouldn't be allowed to live!"
...
Obscene language filled the air, but the few people in front of the stage were not afraid. On the contrary, they were thrilled.
A movie that can resonate with the audience is always a success, no matter the subject matter. The audience's use of vulgar language was their best form of approval for the film.
Then, the female lead, who was driving, got out of the car and intervened to prevent the police officer from deliberately targeting her boyfriend. This scene instantly gained the favor of all the audience members.
"Rose is so perfect! I wish I had a girlfriend like her."
"Yeah, compared to those bitches, Rose is really great, and she's beautiful too."
Angelina Jolie's influence added to Rose's popularity.
The male protagonist, through his efforts to protect Rose, conveyed his love for her through the screen, giving the audience a taste of their romance.
At that moment, no one remembered that this was marketed as a thriller movie.
The car continued on and arrived in the small town.
After meeting Rose's parents, Chris finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her parents didn't discriminate against him; instead, they were very welcoming, almost unnaturally so.
Rose's father even enthusiastically showed Chris around their family history and the backyard basketball court.
However, the odd-smiling black nanny and the stiff-faced black gardener made Chris feel that something was off.
Then came the time for dinner, and Chris chatted with Rose and her family.
Rose's mother tapped her glass, making a sound.
Suddenly, Chris had a craving for a cigarette and instinctively imitated the motion of flicking the ashes.
Rose's father suddenly commented on how smoking was not a good habit. He mentioned that his wife was an excellent hypnotist, and if Chris underwent hypnosis, it would completely solve his addiction to smoking.
Chris politely declined. The peculiar behavior of the black nanny and the black gardener earlier had already made him feel something was amiss.
Faced with this sudden kindness, Chris instinctively felt that something was off.
At that moment, the black nanny brought out the food and smiled at Chris.
A normal smile would make people feel good and uplifted.
But the smile on the black nanny's face only sent shivers down the audience's spines. It wasn't the smile a normal person would have.
Night fell.
Chris lay in bed, pondering over everything that had happened during the day. The eerie feeling kept him tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. In the end, he got up, lit a cigarette, and went to the doorway to smoke.
The strange black gardener from earlier in the day suddenly ran towards him from a distance. Before Chris could react, the black gardener abruptly turned around and quickly left.
Puzzled, Chris shook his head and was about to enter the house when he saw the maid, who seemed even more eerie than the gardener, suddenly appear at the window, looking at him with a strange smile. The smile was extremely eerie, unlike that of a living person.
"!!!"
"!!!"
"!!!"
This fear induced by the atmosphere and psychological suggestion was more terrifying than the bloodshed and slaughter currently popular in North America.
The audience present, who had never experienced this kind of horror film with an Oriental inclination, were startled.
To disguise their fright, they resorted to various fake reactions, but their antics in the theater did not affect the progress of the movie.
After going through these two incidents, Chris suddenly felt that this small town was extremely eerie. He made up his mind not to leave the room once he entered.
However, just as he entered the house, his girlfriend's mother suddenly appeared and called out to him.
This eerie woman told Chris that her hypnotic technique was a special ability guided by a certain kind of focus. After explaining, she directly asked Chris about his mother.
Chris didn't want to answer that question, but he saw the woman lightly tapping her glass on the dining table, just like a gesture.
Then Chris was hypnotized and voluntarily began talking about his mother.
"Oh my God, what does she want? Is my goddess Rose also one of them?"
"I knew it, they must not be good people. After all, Get Out is a horror movie about escaping from a deadly town."
"..."
The scene in the movie immediately sparked discussions among the audience.
On the screen, Chris felt as if he had fallen into a black hole and couldn't move.
Then the scene changed, and it became daylight.
Chris found himself unharmed and lying in bed. Suddenly, he began to question everything that happened yesterday. Was it all just his imagination and nothing actually happened?
With a hint of doubt, Chris got up.
To welcome Chris's arrival, Rose's family held a party.
The townspeople came to Rose's house in their cars, warmly embracing the black gardener and showing Chris the beauty of the town. They had no discrimination towards black people.
The only strange thing was that everyone attending the party was elderly.
They praised Chris's strength in unison, and their eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and greed as they looked at him. Some even directly touched Chris's body.
All of this made Chris sense a hidden secret within the town.
Rose introduced Chris to each of the elderly people, and they were even more enthusiastic than Chris had imagined. In their words, it seemed that black people held a superior position.
All of this made Chris even more unsettled. In the outside world, everything happening in this town was impossible.
Finally, an uneasy Chris saw a fellow black man at the party and went up to greet him warmly. However, he received a cold response, and the man's behavior was nothing like that of a young, strong black person.
He resembled more... the elderly people attending the party.
At that moment, the black man's wife approached. She was a white old woman who appeared several decades older than the black man.
Chris extended his fist, wanting to give a fist bump, which is a way of greeting among black people.
But the black man extended his hand and shook Chris's hand, leaving Chris feeling bewildered.
Apart from their skin color, the person in front of him was unmistakably white.
Then Chris noticed that someone had unplugged his charging camera. He knew it was done by the black maid.
After telling Rose about it, she left for a moment.
Shortly after, the black maid came over and apologized voluntarily. Strangely, her face had a smile on one side and tears streaming down the other.
This scene was too eerie, making Chris feel extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to go downstairs to get some fresh air.
But he saw the black man engaged in an intense conversation with the white people. Chris took out his fully charged camera, ready to capture the moment. The flash went off, making Chris feel somewhat embarrassed.
