Get Out absolutely tore up the record books this year. And the wildest thing about it? It did so with the most ordinary looking characters and props ever (hence the shoestring $4.5 million budget). Which makes it a godsend for the time- and cash-strapped come Halloween.

The film is also the _all-time highest domestic grossing debut based on an original screenplay ...

As our cells age, they eventually mature and die. As they die, they alert nearby cells to grow and multiply to replace them.
