On 10 August 2001 at about 3.00pm, the sun was shining and there were only a few clouds on the sky. I decided to go out for a walk, so I took my car and drove to a big forest in Schouweiler. There are no streets near the forest, so I walked about 1 km to reach it. After an hour I was deep inside the forest so I decided to go home. But suddenly I heard a little noise. I turned around, but I didn't see anything. A few seconds later I heard a sound of breaking branches, I looked around and I saw a dark figure standing a few meters behind me. It was about 2m (6 foot 6 inches) tall, dark haired and very big. I tried to film it, but it disappeared quickly, I couldn't follow anymore. After an hour I was at home again and I still couldn't believe what I saw

There it was, the image many people imagine in their nightmares. I could feel the cold sensation running through my veins when I looked up to view the many windows broken. As I looked up again, I think I might’ve seen something move.

Cinematic perception can be understood using the metaphor of cinema as a window and frame.  Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window is an concrete example of this metaphor from both a critical viewpoint as an audience member, and from the perspective of the protagonist, L.B. Jefferies.  Thomas Elsaesser believes that the cinema of the window offers a “special, ocular access to an event” and the screen is transformed from a two dimensional narrative into a three-dimensional environment within which the audience is absorbed (14). Because the plot contains an actual window and also involves L.B Jefferies looking through a window, Rear Window is an exemplary illustration of this metaphor. The two observation points are similar in that they are both ocular-specular,

Upon my arrival, I was approached by a preacher who advised me the gentlemen that passed away, Darren Allen Veatch, who was later identified, is up stairs in his bed room. I then walked up stairs observing two bed rooms, one on the south side of the residence and one on the north side. I approached the bedroom on the north side of the residence observing a brown in color blanket covering the bed room. I pulled the blanket back observing Darren Veatch lying face down with his head facing towards the east wall. I then observed levity on Darren Veatch legs, stomach, chest and facial region. ETMC EMS

If we selected two individuals from around the world they would likely be just as similar as two individuals living in the same country. The greatest level of genetic diversity is in Sub Saharan Africa. This is likely because humans originated from this region and have lived there the longest, leading to greater genetic variation than anywhere in the world.

Brontë utilizes supernatural imagery through Jane’s internal monologue in order to display her progression of reasoning as she ages. While in the Red Room, Jane creates the image of Mr. Reed’s ghost rising from his grave due to his wife’s disregard for his final wishes. Jane forces herself into a large panic and eventually faints by creating this image purely within her own mind. Later, while she struggles to think, Jane imagines a fairy to converse with her and generate new ideas. Creating this figure is beneficial for Jane, as she describes it as a “kind” figure that provides advice that improves her standard of living. Finally, Jane envisions a traveler on a horse to be the vicious Gytrash, from her childhood bedtime stories. This image

In addition, the camera angles add the suspense of the film. After coming to the realization that Rose hit a deer, Chris gets out of the car and hears the deer whining in the woods. Chris then goes to investigate the woods for the deer and Jordan Peele incorporates mysterious music and close up shots of Chris to create a feeling of suspense for us. We become anxious and become concerned for Chris’s encounter with the deer in the woods. Will the deer still be alive? Will the deer attack Chris? Chris enters the woods and sees the deer laying on the ground, with its eyes open looking up at Chris. At first, this scene did not make sense to me, but later on I realized that this scene symbolized a hit and run. This scene is important because Chris’s mother was killed in a hit and run and when Chris found out that his mother had died, he became emotionally paralyzed. When Chris went to look in the woods for the deer, he too became paralyzed looking at the dying deer laying on the ground. The deer symbol is brought up numerous times throughout the film to portray the hit and run concept. The suspense and mystery created by the camera shots and sound in this scene allow Get Out to be successfully classified as a psychological thriller.

I observed the bedroom window to be smashed and small hole in the bottom of the window. I observed the screen for the window to have a tear. I also observed shattered

In Zeus Leonardo’s article and the video titled “The Power of the Illusion: The House We Live in,” American racism is discussed, and white racial domination is argued as the explanation for this stigma across the country. Based on both sources, I believe that this is indeed the case in American society.

Eerie music fills the air a funeral comes into focus. From the date on the tombstone and the clothes everyone is wearing the movie appears to be set in the late 1800s. A few minutes later the whole village is eating together mysterious groaning is heard coming from the woods. The villagers whisper with fright of ‘the ones we do not speak of.’ The village suddenly becomes a place of a mystery and horror. Many from watching The Village’s gut wrenching, and heart-stopping, trailer were expecting The Village to be a film worthy of rubbing shoulders alongside box office hits such as The Sixth Sense, The Exorcist, and What Lies Beneath. However, most were disappointed when the movie ended up being more about a dystopian society with a twist, rather
