On first viewing, it's just an eerie moment, but in hindsight, the sudden silence is due to the party itself not being real. It's a front, a kind of play acting entirely for Chris' benefit. After all, he's who they're all really there to see.
The song is called Sikiliza, and it is both unnerving and also one of the hidden messages in Get Out. The Swahili lyrics contain a warning for Chris — "Brother, listen to the ancestors - run!" The song sets the tone for the film and for the terrifying journey that Chris is about to embark on. An error occurred.
Rose and her family reveal their true nature, and the Armitage family are revealed to be the leading members of a secret cult known as the Order of the Coagula (founded by Rose's grandfather Roman) whose main objective is achieving immortality through transferring their brains into African American bodies.
When the flash goes off in Logan's face his demeanor changes. Physical symptoms manifest which include a nose bleed, fear in his eyes and lunging at Chris saying "Get out". Initially, this perception of this is interpreted as aggression, but later he learns that Logan was actually warning him.
Why did Jordan Peele change the ending of Get Out?
Jordan Peele changed the ending because he wanted to offer a more hopeful note and provide relief after the disturbing events of the film. The decision to change the ending was influenced by the rise of social justice movements and a shift in society's perspective on racism and police brutality.

What is the plot twist of Get Out?
This order is behind the movie's biggest plot twist: Chris was lured into the lair of a secretive cult that will force him to undergo a procedure to transfer a white person's mind into his young, healthy body as they did with other innocent black men in the past.
Why Rose Smiles When Chris Is Choking Her. After Walter shot Rose, Chris approached her and she “apologized” to him and told him she loved him, but Chris knew she wasn't sincere. Chris started choking Rose, and though she was shocked at first, she slowly started smiling.
In this scene, Chris is bound to a leather chair and begins scratching at it revealing the cotton stuffing inside. This symbolism dates back to slavery when African slaves had to pick cotton and were whipped with leather whips when perceived insubordinate.
This links to a buck's head being mounted later in the film as Chris is imprisoned, linking to the idea that the Armitage family sees black people as mere trophies to be hunted. Furthermore, the deer symbolizes helplessness in the film.
The maid's tear symbolizes the black parts of herself that the maid must give up in order to shout, “No, no, no, no, no” when the man across from her accuses her of blindly believing everything that the white family, or elite liberal- ism, has convinced her and her black peers to think.
Later, we learn that a "bingo" game was actually an auction for Chris's body, so that someone else could transplant their brain inside him. It makes the previous scene even more reminiscent of an appraisal before a slave auction.
Like all of Peele's films, Get Out is deeply metaphorical. The Sunken Place serves as a metaphor for the underlying bigotry that exists even in modern day. Many white liberals view befriending Black people as a commodity (like the ones literally sold by the Order of the Coagula), but without giving them any agency.
For one, the teacup is symbolic in that during the U.S. slavery era, white wives of slave owners would use a gentle strike to their teacup to summon house slaves.
Rose Armitage serves as the perfect twist villain in Get Out, fooling both Chris and the audience with her loving facade. Her true colors expose her as an evil and manipulative person who sees trapping and seducing innocent people as a fun game.
In each of these, the lion exists as the embodiment of the power and subjugation that keeps the eponymous Invisible Man (IM) in his place and who the monkey must outwit in the toast.
Cameras are used symbolically in the film's narrative. Chris is a photographer, and his creativity is used as an emblem of his autonomy and free mind. When he watches the crowd at the party through his camera, they seem more sinister. It's also the flash of camera that 'frees' the enslaved Black characters momentarily.
Thus, Walter's insistence - even after switching bodies and generations after his defeat - that he could still someday outrun one of history's greatest athletes is a testament to the obsessive, all-consuming racism of Get Out's villains.
Peele himself has used the language of sight when discussing how he wanted Get Out to be an inclusive film: “You can ask a white person to see the world through the eyes of a black person for an hour and a half.” It would seem a casual word choice if not for how literally Get Out uses vision—via eyes or camera lens—to ...
The Coagula's ultimate goal is to allow the "superior" minds of white people to attain physical immortality while appropriating the talents and attributes associated with African-American culture. In the Armitages' utopia, the world would be populated only by black bodies controlled by white people's minds.
Costume designer Nadine Haders explained to Brooke Bobb for Vogue how color informed her costume choices for Chris in Get Out. “Blue was the color of his urban life, his true self.
The word “buck” is what you call a male deer, but it's a reference to a racial slur from post-Reconstruction America that referred to black men who were seen as violent and rude. This gives great irony in the scene where the car hits the deer.
Chris realizes that all the black people he saw at the Armitage estate are actually white people who have taken over the bodies of the black people. When the time for the transplant has come, Missy uses the TV to hypnotize Chris so he cannot resist.
Rose, obviously. The red box of photos was “hidden” in a closet in Rose's room, and she herself featured in each of the photos. Clearly, Rose left the box where it was, and she very likely intended for Chris to find it.
She apologizes to Rose for what she had done to herself, but also asks, “Why did you let me die?” In the film's final act, it's revealed that Rose's mom had asked for help in the final moments of her life, pleading with Rose to call the police because “mommy made a mistake.” Rose admits that she didn't take action ...
