Slow Halloween Weekend at the Box Office
The movie exhibition business is experiencing a sluggish Halloween weekend, marking one of its slowest Octobers in over 25 years.
Studios avoided releasing major new films due to the holiday falling on a Friday, instead opting for re-releases such as Back to the Future and KPop Demon Hunters.
- Black Phone 2 was expected to top the charts in its third weekend, with Universal estimating $8 million in earnings.
- However, Paramount reported Regretting You earned an estimated $8.1 million, potentially taking the top spot.
Box office tracker Comscore gave the first place title to Regretting You based on the numbers.
