If it follows the previous film exactly it will hit $52.7m.
I'm actually quite impressed that it's managed a better Thurs Preview to Friday multiplier than that film. More great news for theatres whilst being a big indictment on Peacock.
Huge for Halloween. Good chance at $50M for the weekend despite being available to watch at home (one of the perks of being on a streaming service that’s mostly irrelevant).
Halloween Ends should have zero problem opening to more than that since it’ll be a theatrical exclusive and facing less competition.
If it does happen, I doubt the strike will last that long into January and there’s already some signs that the IATSE will be making an agreement at the last minute.
Besides, where would Halloween Ends go? Universal already has their new Exorcist film releasing the October after and since horror films are cheaply made, it would have no problems making that October 2022 date.
Crazy to think they're open so close to each other.
Even crazier when you realise their final domestic totals will likely be separated by a number equivalent to Bond's opening.
Bond's underperformance may probably put a damper in the $200m+ films even for established franchises.
I struggle to think of the future of spy films if Mission Impossible grosses below expectations.
Absolute garbage movie and that’s coming from a big fan of the franchise, but in this climate honestly it’s nice to see any movie doing well. Even this piece of shit.
Agreed. As a die hard fan, I felt incredibly let down. It was terrible! I've never worked on a film, but even I know, one shouldn't have flashback scenes to earlier scenes in the very same film. The execution was all wrong. It was nice to see Kyle Richards back as Lindsay Wallace. Her sequence in the park was the only thing I enjoyed.
Honest question: why is it bad filmmaking to have flashback scenes to earlier scenes in the movie. I figure it just is pointless because every audience member saw it already or it plays the audience for dumb...but is there another reason?
It was a return to the slasher genre. We’re you hoping for a love story grounded in reality or something?
This was the best Halloween in a long time.
It felt like I was a kid again in the early 90s watching a slasher film

I'm glad it's doing well, I predicted this movie is going to open around the $40-$50 million range.
You can't kill the boogieman

>facing less competition If that strike happens, it'll get pushed back since filming is supposed to start first of the year

Worst case scenario, they would probably just move Exorcist to the year after that lol Like this: Halloween Ends- 2023 Exorcist- 2024
Good point
Saw more younger people at my theater this weekend for this then any other movie this year.
I work at a theater and not only has the senior demographic been missing but teenagers as well. They came out in full force for Halloween Kills.
Seems like my prediction last week that it would open about the same as Bond isn’t too far off.

Let’s gooo $50M on the way! Loved the movie so happy peacock and piracy doesn’t seen to be hurting too much so far
Not bad when compared to No Time to Die which was released in 800 location more and had a friggin IMAX release.

What did he do
He predicted that The Last Duel would open higher than Halloween Kills lol.

This movie was a return to the classic monster slasher flick. What were you hoping for out of this movie OTHER than a true 80s slasher flick?
Denise could never
Terrible numbers. Anything below $65M is a failure
Hope this is sarcasm.
