Jordan Peele is a legendary horror director, but how does he rank other legendary movies in the canon?

Appearing on The Tonight Show in the clip above, Peele plays a game with Fallon where he is shown one movie at a time, and has to place it on a ranking scale of one to six — but without knowing which other movies will be coming next.

The end result? Nightmare on Elm Street and The Exorcist at the top, Get Out and Saw at the bottom.
