Acclaimed horror film 'Get Out' secures NZ release date

Horror movie Get Out is made by one of America's hottest comedians and it has just secured an NZ release date!

Jordan Peele, one half of comedy duo Key and Peele and co-writer of last year's Keanu brings to audiences the story of an African-American man Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) as he travels with his girlfriend (Girls' Alison Williams) to meet her wealthy parents in upstate New York.

He starts to get along with the parents (played by Catherine Keener and Bradley Whitford), but things take a dark turn when Chris begins to notice the community's strange relationship with minorities.

Get Out will be in NZ theaters May 4.
