Take a deep dive into the Sunken Place in this Get Out-inspired university course
UCLA Professor Tananarive Due breaks down her class, The Sunken Place: Racism, Survival and Black Horror Aesthetic, which was inspired by Jordan Peele's horror hit, Get Out.
Get Out is arguably one of the biggest horror films this year, capturing the attention of many moviegoers and even one particular professor named Tananarive Due. Due is a writer and scholar of African-American horror and she created a college course inspired by Get Out called "The Sunken Place: Racism, Survival and Black Horror Aesthetic." The course is currently being taught at UCLA and earlier this month, filmmaker Jordan Peele surprised students of that class by dropping by and answering questions about his hit movie.
Today, Due tells Tom Power why she created a course based on Get Out.
