I've said before that I hate the Horror genre as a rule, but it's not because I hate horror movies. There are some really great ones I've seen over the years, but usually they're just cheap and quick trash that they put out as quick as possible and always make a buck off of.
That being said, has anybody seen Smile yet?
$20 Million for opening weekend on a horror movie that isn't a big franchise like Halloween is pretty impressive, and it's the first movie to crack $20 Million domestically since Bullet Train came out.
I have to say they've done a good job with the radio advertising. I've heard ads for it for a few weeks every day and they made them creepy and intriguing.
My hope is that it's up to The Ring caliber. Sounds like it has some plot beats in common with Denzel Washington's 1998 flick Fallen, which I also rank extremely high on the Horror genre list.

Didn't know about it until just now, but Dead For A Dollar looks really interesting.
I hope my theater can adjust their showtimes for me to watch it.
Now it's gone, the cinemas chock full of reruns, repeats, "retros" instead.

Maybe nobody here has, but people are going to see it. It did 80% better than The-Numbers predicted it would do in its 2nd weekend and crushed Lyle, Lyle Crocodile, which The-Numbers thought would have an easy win for the weekend.
With only a 22% drop from its debut to its second weekend, it's the lowest 2nd week drop since Sing 2 came out in December of last year.

Meg 2 The Trench a film so stupid that you can enjoy? Sherlock Holmes 3, Mary's Monster, Rebel Moon might have to wait another 2 years before movies get movie again or is there nothing indie out there?

Smile, which came out two weeks before Halloween Ends beats HE at the box office the weekend before Halloween. Smile also beat Halloween Ends in it's 2nd weekend at the box office, and currently holds a $32 Million dollar advantage over it. Unlike Smile, which only saw a 22% drop in its second weekend, Halloween Ends saw an 80% drop, followed Halloween weekend by a 52% drop in its 3rd weekend compared to Smile's 40% drop in its 5th.
It sounds like people hate the "last" Halloween flick, but I'm sure the fact that Jamie Lee Curtis turned out to be a woke dipshit in her final years didn't do the film any favors. Her twitter feed is almost as bad as Rob Reiner's.
So sad.

To Die For.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22866664/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2
Libtards at imdb have tried to bury it by labeling this film a "Video"
Based upon a true news story from less than a year ago, John Schneider selected 20 October as the date he wanted it released for Cinema showings, so that folks would have 2 weeks to reflect before Election Day. And he did it.
I cannot find it playing around me, but it seems available online.
Imagine the horror of an American Flag unfurled being within viewing distance of a Public School in America. Next, the American Anthem might get played at sporting events.

Quote:Smile has a lot more hereditary cred for horror. Kevin Bacon started off doing some classic horror, and now his daughter (with Kyra Sedgewick) is leading this film.

Hereditary cred isn't always what it's cracked up to be.
I mean, I liked Julian Lennon's one song, and there were two good ones by Jacob Dylan, but they were no Kevin Bacon.

It just occurred to me that you meant that his daughter was his daughter with Kyra Sedgwick and you didn't mean that Kyra Sedgwick was in the movie with her.
I think that bubbled up from the depths of my brain because I remember there was some cop show or legal show that Kyra was in that my old man was a huge fan of and he probably mentioned that they were married.
I didn't even know their daughter was in this movie. I never saw any video footage of it or the video trailer, but the radio trailers didn't mention any cast names at all. They were all VERY short ads, probably under 10 or 12 seconds, but they did a really good job of making the movie sound both creepy and intriguing with just the short audio clips and sounds they used. I was impressed by the ads.
If you see it, let me know what you think. I'll probably watch that one with my Brother when I see him.
