Synopsis

Our second episode of the Price Projection Room features a discussion of the poignant horror film Get Out, written and directed by Jordan Peele (MADTV, Key and Peele, and Keanu).

The tag line sums up the deep horror of the film, "Just because you're invited, doesn't mean you're welcome."
