Monday Morning Box Office Report: Goosebumps Golden, Crimson Peak Crumbles

boxofficegoosebumps

Despite a strong start for Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak at the beginning of the weekend, the R-rated gothic horror romance ultimately fell short of expectations, earning just $12.85 million and settling for fourth place. The good news is that it also made $13 million overseas, but that is still well short of the film’s $55 million budget and there is some strong horror competition coming up next weekend. The family horror flick Goosebumps ultimately won out with $23.5 million, which was probably to be expected, although that was a little weaker than expected as well. Meanwhile The Martian fell to second place while Steven Spielberg’s Bridge of Spies opened in third with $15.38 million. Sony’s other family-friendly October offering Hotel Transylvania 2 rounded out the top 5.

1. Goosebumps — $23.5M
2. The Martian — $21.5M
3. Bridge of Spies — $15.38M
4. Crimson Peak — $12.85M
5. Hotel Transylvania 2 — $12.25M
6. Pan — $5.86M
7. The Intern — $5.41M
8. Sicario — $4.50M
9. Woodlawn — $4.10M
10. Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials — $2.75M

    Bummer about Crimson Peak. I’ve been anticipating (warily) it and still couldn’t find the time to go see it, don’t doubt that people who don’t have an interest in del Toro would ignore it all together.
