      I can see this comparison a bit.

      I enjoyed Get Out a lot and my second favorite would be Nope. I wanted to love Us but it felt very loosely written.

      Get Out is probably his best due to the subject matter, Nope is a good commentary on animal abuse for spectacle but I definitely see the repeating pattern similar to M Night’s “twist” motif. The big difference is Peele’s films hit more than M Night’s do, where a majority of his failed to stick the landing. Time will tell if he ends up similarly.

      Cregger is another comedy writer turned horror director that may end up better, the new RE seems promising and I feel Weapons and Barbarian are amazing films.

      That’s pretty fair… M night had some real good stuff and then there’s the other stuff. Lol
