Horror Box Office - Last House On The Left
Looks like horror did good but, not great over the weekend. Last House on the Left (remake) pulled in a estimated $14.7 million dollars as a opening haul. Opening vs a Disney Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson movie couldn't have helped. It took in $25 million while The Watchmen dropped a healthy 67% to gross $18.1 million. Which should make Friday the 13th film makers not feel so bad for having a 80% drop. It seems to be the going thing with genre pics lately. The thriller Taken continues to hold unbelievably strong with $6.6 million and hows now "Taken" in a huge $126 million. Which I have seen this movie and it is great. Friday the 13th took in $600,000 raising its US total to $64.3 million. The Uninvited scored another $335,000 raising its total to $28.1 million. The Unborn and My Bloody Valentine 3D looks to have dropped out of theaters for the most part. So with Last House I would tend to guess it will end up in the neighborhood of $40 million in the US. No word on international grosses. And Friday the 13th is just shy of breaking the $85 million mark with international grosses figured in. On a side note Last House opened in like 2,400 theaters. To compare Friday opened in like 3,100. If Last House would've opened in that many theaters at a $6,000 per theater gross it would have been more like $18.6 million.
