While not quite on the level as his debut film Get Out<\/em>, Jordan Peele\u2019s Us<\/em> is still one of the best movies of the year and cements Peele as a heady horror filmmaker to keep your eye on. This brutal home invasion movie, where the family is terrorized by their own \u201cTethered\u201d doppelgangers, asks a lot of questions<\/a> about privilege and inequality and self-deluding psychological dark sides and nature vs. nurture without necessarily answering all of them. Plus what\u2019s up with all those rabbits?<\/p>\n

Even if the more intellectual material goes over your head though Us<\/em> works as a terrifically tense horror movie that\u2019s violent without being too violent and gives the audience plenty of relieving applause moments. Peele wanted the Tethered to become a new kind of iconic movie monster. And if you don\u2019t think he succeeded, just go outside wearing a red jumpsuit while holding some scissors and see what happens.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s so terrifying about the Tethered though is that everyone has a bitter counterpart, and they could strike at anytime. It could even happen to you! And if you want a taste of what that\u2019s like, try out the new Us<\/em>-inspired maze coming to Universal\u2019s Halloween Horror Nights.<\/p>\n
