Insidious5 is outperforming expectations, projecting a $31 million opening. The horror entry only cost $16 million to produce.
. Horror entries usually face front-loaded weekend performances, but the Screen Gems, Stage 6 Films and Blumhouse co-production has fired off with a commanding lead. It looks to land the top spot on domestic charts for the weekend, projecting a $31 million haul and toppling last week’s victor “Ho-hum, it’s another unimpeachable box office success story for the horror genre.
There was some hope that “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” would be able to hold strongly enough to retain the No. 1 spot at the domestic box office, but that no longer seems to be the case. The Harrison Ford finale earned $7.6 million on Friday, with competitors projecting a second weekend total around $26 million. Its North American gross should reach $120 million through Sunday.
Based on a true story, “Sound of Freedom” stars Jim Caviezel, who has found a dedicated fanbase ever since playing the titular Christ in Mel Gibson’s mega-hit “The Passion of the Christ.” Caviezel, who has spoken at QAnon conventions and peddled conspiracy theories connected to the movement throughout the press tour for “Sound of Freedom,” plays Tim Ballard, a former agent who takes the rescue of trafficked children into his own hands. Like Caviezel, Ballard has also publicly commended Qanon.
“Joy Ride” has enjoyed some of the strongest reviews of the year — a 90% approval rating from top critics on Rotten Tomatoes — as well as a buzzy premiere at SXSW in March. Audiences are colder on the film though, as indicated by the “B-” Cinema Score determined by surveying early moviegoers . With “Joy Ride” now likely coming in beneath projections for a $7 million to $9 million debut, it’ll need to find some more buzz to drum up business in the coming weeks.
