A cornucopia of movie references abound in “Us,” adding further layers to Peele’s record-breaking horror tale about a family battling their own doppelgangers. The mysteries of “Us” unfold the more you venture down the rabbit hole, jenyamato writes.
Peele wears his genre bonafides proudly on his sleeve. Young Jason — who has a habit of wearing a mask, likefamous horror movie Jason — wears those nods on his T-shirt, sporting a “Jaws” tee during a suspenseful family trip to the beach. Later, Peele channels the Steven Spielberg classic, subjecting Winston Duke’s character to one of his own personal phobias in a scene in which the boat-obsessed Gabe must fight his own waterborne predator in the form of his Tethered double, Abraham.
Nyong’o got through more of Peele’s suggestions — “The Babadook,” “It Follows,” “A Tale of Two Sisters,” “The Birds,” “Let the Right One In,” “The Sixth Sense” and “Alien” — before she came to a daunting final watch: Pascal Laugier’s ultraviolent 2008 French psychological horror tale “Martyrs,” about a woman confronting disturbing traumas and the machinations of a sadistic cult. Not that Peele's warning helped, she recalled: “With the last one, he wrote: ‘Enter at your own risk.
“This song has always had a haunting melody — the bass line and that riff kind of sounds like Angelo Badalamenti’s ‘Nightmare on Elm Street [3]’ score,” Peele said. “I knew I wanted to have a Bay Area classic hip-hop song... It kind of serves the same purpose as ‘Redbone’ [in “Get Out”] and gets everybody’s heads bopping — then all of a sudden, there’s a haunting aspect.
