‘Halloween ends’ opens below expectations with $41.2 million box office launch

Universal/Blumhouse’s “Halloween Ends”This movie is poised to do a frontloaded run at box office. It opened below expectations with a $41.2million opening from 3,901 theatres.

Independent trackers predicted that this reboot trilogy ending would at most match the movie. Opening at $49.4million of its predecessor in 2021 “Halloween Kills.” Not only has it fallen short financially, it’s also getting weaker audience reception than “Kills”With a C+ CinemaScore and Rotten Tomatoes score of 40% critics, and 56% audience.

Global opening of $58.4 Million, with an overseas launch of $17,000,000 from 20 countries. “Halloween Ends”Universal has already made a profit with a reported production budget around $30 million. But the poor word-of-mouth, combined with the release of Warner Bros./DC’s “Black Adam”Next weekend is expected to reduce theatrical profit and cause a sharp drop in second weekend.

Added to that, “Halloween Ends,”Like “Kills,”Peacock releases the day-and-date information daily. That has brought more people to the platform for Peacock reporting. “Ends”It has been the most watched film on the site in its first two days. This will likely draw in casual moviegoers who still have interest in the film despite its mediocre reception in theaters. Domestic box office results below the $92 Million run of “Kills”It is very likely.

It’s also possible that “Halloween Ends” is facing tougher-than-expected competition from fellow horror film “Smile.”Paramount continues to be a strong release in theaters. The third weekend total was $12 million. That’s a 33% decline from the previous weekend. Domestically, it now stands at $71million against a $17million production budget.

Sony’s “Lyle Lyle Crocodile”And “The Woman King”Take third and fourth on the charts, respectively. “Lyle Lyle Crocodile”The domestic total has risen to $22.6million after an additional $7.4million in the second weekend. “The Woman King,”The fifth weekend of the festival saw an additional $3.4 million, bringing its domestic total to $59.7million. The budget was co-financed at $50 million. “Woman King” has recouped its production costs but still hasn’t quite reached its break-even point with marketing spending included.

20th Century/New Regency’s “Amsterdam”The top five films finished with $2.8million in their second weekend. This is a 56% decrease from the $6.5 million it started at. The David O. Russell movie is one of the most successful films of 2022. It earned $18.5 million worldwide compared to a $80 million budget.
