Crossover Insider
A few years ago, Jordan Peele was best known as a comedic actor- most notably from the show Key &Peele. Then in 2017, Peele showed a different side of himself as the writer, producer and director of “Get Out”. The horror/thriller would go on to achieve critical acclaim while also cleaning up at the box office. Furthermore, the movie made a direct point to take a jab at race in society. Earlier this year, Peele followed up his impressive directorial debut with yet another socially relevant horror/thriller gem- this week’s headline new release- “US”. There are a total of five new titles this week, with a brief synopsis of each below;
