Horror, Comedy

Jordan Peele wrote and directed this psychological horror movie that does get bloody and violent in the last section. I'm tagging it as a comedy as well, because humor is used well, as both release and reality check, as the movie moves from "meeting the parents" anxiety to full-on Stepford Wives level conspiracy. The movie is about the horror of racism (including among rich liberals), while the whole brain-swap thing is a bit cheesy, which is why I can't go higher in the grading. I have to note that Catherine Keener continues to prove her versatility, and not just compared to her appearance in recently viewed Friends with Money.
