  1. Another good hold for Dune Part 2. Glad to see Immaculate at 3 considering it’s an indie and same for seeing Late Night with the Devil in the top 10 too. This Friday and next Monday being bank holidays, and I’m sure the schools will be off for longer round about it. Seeing Mother’s Instinct tonight.
  2. Got this trailer before Late Night with the Devil. I wonder if this will perform similarly to Renfield? Vampire, gory, comedy elements, April release date. Hopefully it can do more.
  3. Record openings for both Neon and IFC. Nice. Glad Immaculate and Late Night with the Devil found some sort of audience. Ghostbusters opening to less than the 2016 film. Again. Wonder if this one can beat it worldwide though.
  4. This will be my first Godzilla/Kong film in the cinema since Skull Island. King of Monsters was a plane watch on the way to Vegas and the last one was a Covid digital download. I’m not feeling much hype for this one but presales certainly suggest otherwise.
  5. Dune Part 2 is actually keeping one of the IMAX showings next weekend too, despite Godzilla vs Kong. Makes sense. Godzilla vs Kong 10 showings, KFP4 12 so far.
  6. You can imagine then, that’s it’s very rare for me especially to be scared when most of the films I watch are horror. Late Night with the Devil has a moment in it that gave me actual chills. Horror is great fun, but this wasn’t even a jump scare. Very well done.
  7. This was fantastic. Scariest film I’ve seen in years. The AI thing is a non issue. It was filmed years ago, before the strikes etc and it’s three intersectionals. They shouldn’t have done it, but there’s no point getting knickers in a twist. Side note: the amount of financier company logos at the start of the film got laughs from my audience lol, I think there were 8.
  8. Late Night with the Devil is the scariest film I’ve seen in years. One part made my eyes water a bit.
  9. Ah thanks, Box Office Report had 2,150 yesterday so maybe it increased. I love A24, but Neon have had some great horrors too (Lodge, Possessor, Infinity Pool, Titane, Immaculate). With Cuckoo and Longlegs coming, I’m glad they’re leaning into hyper violence. Hope they can keep going.
  10. Was hoping for more for Immaculate and Late Night With The Devil. But I guess £450k and £160k is alright.
  11. 2,100 theatres and Black Bear produced for under $10m and sold distribution. $5m would be fine for an indie. Would $5m be Neon’s biggest debut? Great for Late Night with the Devil. Seeing it tonight!
  12. Cinema counts: Ghostbusters 687 Immaculate 511 Late Night With The Devil 220 The Persian Version 162 Afterlife got 670, 2016 got 581.
  13. Guess what, there were no verified audience scores on RT in 2016. Back on topic: $600k would be great for Immaculate!
  14. You said they should’ve released a full trailer. That would be pretty unheard of for a big film like this just going with a full one first 6 months out with no teaser. Maybe you meant “longer teaser”. I guess.
  15. But why would they skip a teaser? Having the full trailer out for 6 months prior seems a bit unheard of?
  16. It gave me nostalgia. Glad they used the song. I think here in the UK it’ll be huge with my generation at least. I do wonder if parents are too precious/weak/boring these days to let their kids see it though.
  17. Yes, The Predator could be a good comparison gross wise. To be fair, I think Covenant would’ve been much better if it was just a “big scary alien killing everyone”. I think it’s the right move to go back to slasher in space.
  18. Yeh the 2016 one is easily my favourite too. I’m a tad too young for the first film to have any nostalgia (even though I’m 36, it wasn’t as big here in the UK - to me anyway I was watching the early 90s films on a loop instead). I thought the 2nd was boring as a kid and I skipped Afterlife. I agree though, the first started off as a comedy by SNL actors and then because it was popular they tried to make it a blockbuster franchise and they’re still going that route, which doesn’t seem to be paying off.
