Jordan Peeles Get Out: Political Horror is a collection of sixteen essays devoted to exploring Get Outs roots in the horror tradition and its complex and timely commentary on twenty-first-century US race relations. The first section, The Politics of Horror, traces the influence of the gothic and horror tradition on Peeles film, from Shakespeares Othello, through the female gothic and Ira Levins Rosemarys Baby and The Stepford Wives, to the modern horror film, including the zombie, rural, suburban, and body-swap subgenres of horror. The second section, The Horror of Politics, takes up Get Outs varied political interventions-notably its portrayal of the continuation of slavery and the deformation of the black body and mind in white, so-called progressive America. Contributors address Peeles film alongside African American figures such as Nat Turner, W. E. B. Du Bois, and James Baldwin. Taken together, the essays illuminate how Get Out stands as both a groundbreaking intervention in the horror tradition as well as a devastating unmasking of racism in the contemporary United States.
