There’s one disquieting moment in Jordan Peele’s critically applauded horror movie ‘Get Out’ in which Brit actor Daniel Kaluuya’s Chris goes outside his girlfriend’s parents’ home for a cigarette.

He’s confronted by the family’s groundskeeper Walter, who runs full pelt towards him before taking a sharp turn.

It’s a weird, unsettling moment – and so, of course, now there’s lots of people on the internet doing it.

They’re doing it in fields.

They’re doing it near their houses.

They’re doing it in the supermarket.

They’re doing it in the streets.

They’re doing it at school.

And they’re falling over doing it.

Plenty.

It’s being called the #GetOutChallenge, the challenge being, judging by the last two clips there, to remain standing up.

Anything that dissipates the terror wrought by the movie itself can only be a good thing.

Also starring Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford, Caleb Landry Jones and Catherine Keener, it’s out now across the UK.
