Another folk horror film from Ari Aster, Midsommar trades the domestic dread of Hereditary for the sun-drenched terror of a remote Swedish commune. A group of American tourists visit their friend's ancestral village for a fabled midsummer festival, only to find themselves caught in the disturbing rituals of a pagan cult.

Like Get Out, the film places protagonists in an unfamiliar, seemingly welcoming environment that turns sinister. However, Midsommar focuses more on themes of relationships, grief, and the unsettling nature of cult dynamics and ancient traditions rather than direct social commentary on contemporary issues. Florence Pugh gives a captivating performance as the protagonist navigating her crumbling relationship amidst the commune's escalating horrors.

Ari Aster's directorial debut, Hereditary, is a modern masterpiece of atmospheric and deeply unsettling horror. While it diverges from the social commentary of Get Out, it excels in creating a pervasive sense of dread and exploring the inescapable nature of trauma and fate within a family.

The film features a powerhouse performance from Toni Collette as a woman grieving the loss of her mother, only to uncover terrifying family secrets. Aster builds tension through intricate production design, sound, and truly disturbing imagery. It's a film that crawls under your skin and stays there, relying on psychological terror and supernatural elements rather than the societal themes found in Peele's work, but equally effective in its horror.

Bong Joon Ho's Snowpiercer is a visually stunning and thought-provoking sci-fi action film set on a train that circles a frozen Earth. It's a powerful allegory for class warfare, with the poor living in squalor at the tail end of the train while the elite inhabit the lavish front cars.

Much like Get Out, Snowpiercer uses a high-concept genre premise to explore deep societal inequalities and power structures. Chris Evans leads a rebellion from the tail section, fighting his way through the train's distinct cars, each representing a different societal stratum. While less focused on psychological horror than Get Out, its sharp social critique and thrilling, contained narrative make it a relevant comparison.

The Purge presents a terrifying near-future premise where, for one night each year, all crime is legal. While it leans more into action and survival horror than psychological depth, its core concept is rooted in stark social commentary.

The first film in the successful franchise focuses on a wealthy family caught in their fortified home during the annual event. It starkly highlights class divisions, showing how the wealthy can afford protection while the poor are vulnerable. The premise forces characters (and the audience) to confront uncomfortable questions about human nature, law, and society's capacity for violence, offering a different kind of critique compared to Get Out, but a critique nonetheless.

A chilling classic that paved the way for many modern thrillers exploring unsettling perfect communities, The Stepford Wives (the 1975 original) is a must-watch. It follows a woman who moves with her family to a seemingly idyllic suburban town, only to find the wives are eerily submissive and perfect, hinting at a sinister secret beneath the surface.

The film taps into fears about conformity and losing one's identity, using its sci-fi/horror premise to comment on societal expectations of women at the time. While the specific themes differ from Get Out, the core idea of a protagonist uncovering a horrifying truth about a seemingly normal, privileged group is a strong parallel. Katharine Ross delivers a compelling performance as the increasingly suspicious Joanna Eberhart.

Ready or Not offers a thrilling and darkly humorous take on the horrors of joining a wealthy, eccentric family. A young bride's wedding night takes a terrifying turn when she discovers her new in-laws have a deadly tradition involving a game of hide-and-seek.

Starring the fantastic Samara Weaving, the film is a relentless and gory survival story with sharp comedic beats and underlying social commentary on class and privilege. It doesn't shy away from the violence, but it's balanced with a playful, almost satirical tone. It captures that feeling of being trapped in a terrifying situation dictated by a bizarre, powerful group, much like the predicament in Get Out, but with a more overtly fun and action-packed approach.

If you enjoy the slow burn and mounting dread of Get Out, The Invitation is definitely for you. This psychological thriller centers on a man attending a dinner party hosted by his ex-wife and her new husband, years after a tragic event.

The tension is palpable from the moment guests arrive. Director Karyn Kusama expertly crafts an atmosphere of unease, making you question everyone's motives and whether the protagonist is paranoid or truly in danger. The film excels at portraying awkward social dynamics that spiral into something sinister, culminating in a genuinely shocking and claustrophobic climax. It's a masterclass in building suspense within a single, confined location.

Sorry to Bother You is a wildly original and darkly comedic satire that tackles race, capitalism, and corporate exploitation with audacious creativity. Directed by Boots Riley, this film follows a young Black telemarketer in Oakland who discovers a magical key to success: using his 'white voice' on the phone.

The cast, led by LaKeith Stanfield and Tessa Thompson, is phenomenal, navigating the film's increasingly bizarre and surreal turns with perfect deadpan delivery. What starts as a quirky workplace comedy quickly escalates into something far stranger and more profound, offering sharp critiques of modern society through a unique, genre-bending lens. It's a film that isn't afraid to get weird to make its point, much like Get Out uses genre to explore complex social issues.

From the brilliant mind of Jordan Peele, the director of Get Out, comes Us. This film plunges you into a new kind of terror centered around the idea of 'the other' and the unsettling presence of doppelgangers.

It stars Lupita Nyong'o in a truly incredible dual role, delivering a performance that is both terrifying and deeply moving. The film uses the chilling concept of the 'Tethered' – mysterious figures who look exactly like us but live underground – to explore themes of societal inequality and our own hidden selves. Peele masterfully blends suspense, horror, and thought-provoking social commentary, leaving you thinking long after the credits roll. Keep an eye out for the subtle visual clues and symbols layered throughout the film!
