One of the best thriller movies of recent years is on TV tonight

The film stars an Oscar-winner and has a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score.

The writer-director's follow-up to Get Out centres around an American family (led by Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong'o and Winston Duke) whose vacation trip turns into a fight for survival.

This is when they and their fellow holidayers (Elisabeth Moss and Tim Heidecker) find themselves under attack by strange doppelgangers of themselves.

A huge hit at the box office and with critics upon release, Us saw Peele amp up the action and spectacle after Get Out.

That said, he also retained his gift for dark comedy, social commentary and spine-chilling moments - elements that made his breakthrough film such a phenomenon.

Holding a 93% Rotten Tomatoes score, Us is airing on TV tonight on BBC One at 10.40pm (except in Wales, where it will air at 11.10pm).

The horror thriller is also streaming on Netflix and should be available to watch on the BBC iPlayer from Friday, 15 August.
