‘Get Out,’ the 2017 Jordan Peele film about an interracial couple who visits the woman’s family in a cooky, small town, has been nominated for its first Golden Globes award. While we are all excited about the nomination, many can’t help but be confused by the category placement.

The movie itself was promoted as a satirical horror film and while it may not be ‘Nightmare On Elm Street’ scary, the racial undertones and mind-twisting suspense was thrilling at the very least.

Lil Rel Howery, the film’s co-star, had a little to say about the nomination.
