is right here around us.
Stephen King's "It" tells the story of how the horrors of our childhood haunt us as adults and make us who and what we are.
There's some unnerving recognizable reality in "Get Out."

Box Office: Jordan Peele's 'Get Out' Is The Second-Biggest R-Rated Horror Movie Ever
Jordan Peele's Get Out has made $164.65 million after earning $441,000 on Thursday. That means, barring a massive downturn, today is the day when it passes the $165m mark at the domestic box office. Why does that matter? Well, aside from being a nice, round number, as soon as it passes the $165.092m domestic total of Hannibal, that Get Out is now the second-biggest R-rated horror movie ever in North America.
The $5 million-budgeted Blumhouse and QC Entertainment release has outgrossed every single R-rated horror/scary movie you can think of in North America save one. And no, it won't be passing the $232m domestic gross of The Exorcist, which includes reissues and the like.
