Movies Like "Get Out": "His House"

"His House" is about a young couple, Bol and Rial, who flee war-torn South Sudan and seek asylum in an English town. However, the young couple don't get the fresh start they so desperately want, as they find their house has lurking spirits in it. Like "Get Out," this horror film tackles race — but from an anticolonialist perspective. The film cleverly uses the haunted-house trope to show the hardships and sacrifices that come with being an immigrant or refugee in another country that has history and present rooted in colonialism and oppression. Expect jump scares, ghouls, and overall spookiness in this social thriller that'll really get you thinking.
