This week, Jordan Peele’s hugely anticipated follow-up to Get Out<\/em> hits theaters. Us<\/em> <\/a>follows the story of the Wilson family, who go on what’s meant to be a quiet seaside vacation, but it turns into a brutal fight for survival when a family full of their doppleg\u00e4ngers show up to terrorize them. It might be strange for some to consider that Jordan Peele, best known before Get Out<\/em> for comedy, is now reinventing the way we think about horror movies.<\/p>\n

In honor of the release of Us<\/em> and Jordan Peele’s roots, here are the best horror skits from Key and Peele<\/em>.<\/p>\n
