This crazy for a first time director and well deserved. It's greater achievement will be surpassing The Conjuring to become the highest grossing horror film of the 10s domestically. To put it's overall horror success in to perspective; while a 5x multiplier total of $166 million and change looks like the best case scenario now that will allow it to finish above ANY film from the following franchises AFTER ticket price inflation adjustment: The Grudge, The Conjuring, Paranormal Activity, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Predator, Cloverfield, Evil Dead, Saw, The Purge, Insidious, Sinister, Resident Evil, Underworld, The Last House on the Left, The Hills Have Eyes, Child's Play, Pitch Black, Return of the Living Dead, Hellraiser, Leprechaun and Candyman.

PDC1987 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 UK box office - from the International forum: Quote Get Out followed up its strong opening with a respectable drop of 37% on its way to a $1.72m (£1.36m) second weekend as it remained in third. Universal’s critically acclaimed horror has amassed $6.1m (£4.86m) after ten days in play and will hope to continue to prosper as the sole major horror outing in the otherwise-crowded market at the moment.

cmbbox2390 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Do you guys think it has a chance at $175m million domestic/$200m worldwide? That would be amazing for a horror film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PDC1987 Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 I'd say aiming for just over a 5x multi at $167 million is good, and where it's heading. $175 million would require it to retain more theaters then it will be able to keep through April.

somebody85 Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) So finally saw this away from the hype and eh it was fun but nothing groundbreaking or anything. I think I saw it earlier this week and already can't remember a lot about it. I remember when it came out people were comparing it to CITW....yeah this wasn't anywhere close to that level for me. Dunno if spoilers are allowed by now but I'll still tag them Not going to talk about any of the race elements and rate the film away from all of that as a huge horror fan. Spoiler Things I liked: All the homages to a lot of classic horror films The lack of jump scares Great lead character Nice tension in the first half before it started to drag Chris's friend A lot of good humor moments Good score and soundtrack (liked how Chris and Roses theme foreshadowed that something sad was to come) The realistic way in which Chris approached the house keeper (or Grandpa) chopping wood Things I didn't like: Any plot element involving hypnosis. Yeah coming from someone who has personally attempted to have it done multiple times, that doesn't work that way.... Rose leaving the photos of past victims lying around in a wide open closet. The twist that I saw coming from a mile away which was done so much better in Scream. Roses line "You know I can't give you these keys Chris" seemed ripped right out of it. This whole moment would have worked better without Chris seeing the photos beforehand. Disturbing Behavior already did an idea similar to the big gotcha of this film in the late 90s and I thought it was a lot more effective there since I still remember it. Earplugs that seemed to appear out of nowhere that set the whole climax into motion. Did Chris rip the chair he was sitting in or something? Because the movie didn't show it being damaged. Roses transformation (damn she looked like a guy or one of the kids from Funny Games - maybe this was supposed to be another homage?) The final act which was cliche as hell and reminded me of movies like Hostel. Once it hit this area, it operated in the exact same way as all those torture porn movies of the early 2000s. And I guess now is the time to pull out that that trusty shotgun! Hypnosis worked just fine up until then *rolls eyes* So yeah, I thought it was better then a lot of recent horror but not something that I would revisit that much like CITW or You're Next. Unlike something like It Follows, only a few scenes gave me an unsettling feeling and they were towards the beginning. Spoiler I think the main one was when the housekeeper guy ran at Chris. That was done well. Like most of this years releases thus far, I just found it pretty average. Fun enough while it lasts but not much more.

Yeah it's definitely hit $170 million domestically maybe by next weekend or several day after. Really phenomenal for a small horror movie like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
