concept

Jordan Peele’s latest film, Us, is another brilliant example of a horror film that applies a very real social message to its grisly subject matter,This also speaks to the film’s larger themes of duality and how we’re literally our worst enemies, not only with the presence of these volatile Tethered but also the fact that fellow humans created them, abandoned them, and essentially doomed themselves in the process. These are man-made monsters, both literally and socially, that didn’t need to happen.

clones

cloning, the process of generating a genetically identical copy of a cell or an organism. Cloning happens often in nature—for example, when a cell replicates itself asexually without any geneticalteration or recombination.

As Adelaide’s double Red laments, the Tethered are basically living shadows who are forced to mimic their double’s actions and go through the motions, but with none of the proper context or joy. It’s a grim existence for these maladjusted creatures. Red eventually explains to Adelaide that the Tethered are the results of a failed cloning project that was run by the government to infiltrate and control the American people.
