A small and seemingly peaceful town is plagued by what appears to be a gigantic alien spacecraft. In yet another attempt to provide spine-chilling scenes, Jordan Peele returns with 'NOPE'
There's a reason why people make such a big noise whenever a new Jordan Peele trailer comes out. The prolific horror filmmaker has perfected the art of putting subtle jabs at social issues all while producing scenes that arguably force viewers to watch only from the gap of their fingers.
Universal Pictures has recently released the first full trailer for Peele's NOPE. The long-awaited movie, which was described as "a new pop nightmare," a "reimagining of summer movies," and "an expansive horror epic," quenched the thirst of fans whose excitement were cut short by its earlier teaser which only contains a shot of stars Oscar-winning actor Daniel Kaluuya, Keke Palmer, and Steven Yeun all terrified by something that seems far above them.
Like, Peele's 2019 horror flick US, his new movie NOPE, took the only Super Bowl spot for upcoming thriller films. The movie provides smooth and precise transitions that slowly reveals eerie and startling imagery without revealing the plot.
