Get Out mastermind Jordan Peele<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Directed by Justin Tipping from a screenplay co-written with Zack Ackers and Skip Bronkie, the sports horror film stars Tyriq Withers as up-and-coming

greatness as his training begins… as does his Faustian descent into darkness and mania.<\/p>\n<p>The trailer’s delirious, blood-soaked visuals include what appear to be Satanic symbols, people clad in animal heads, and a series of dark rituals.<\/p>\n<p>As viewers unpacked the trailer, some likened what they were seeing to a cross between The Substance and Whiplash, with a bit of Midsommar thrown in for good measure.<\/p>\n<p>All that, and a terrifying Marlon Wayans, looking only a little bit more unsettling <a
