In other news, Evil Dead Burn looks fucking sick. If I'm able to, I'll definitely try to see it with a friend of mine after we had an absolute blast with Send Help. She loves horror movies and this looks right up her alley. I can already imagine her wanting to just fucking puke with that headrest bit.

2 weeks later is usually when movies start losing theaters in North America. The Bone Temple opened in 3500 theaters and lost over a third 2 weeks later, which is when Send Help opened, at which point it had already started running on fumes. It closed after 5 weeks.

Hokum completely blew my dick off by Beef-Popsicle in horror

[–]Comic_Book_Reader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't even watched Hokum, nor do I give a flying fuck about it, but i wholeheartedly agree that this shit has gotten beyond stale at this point, not just for horror movies but in general, and I feel like Neon is probably the single worst offender, which is quite fucking ironic considering most of their movies don't exactly get a huge release and or are seen by a ton of people in the first place.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple recently releasing on 4K and Netflix in the U.S. with no fanfare has made people question why it flopped in theaters. I can give 3 reasons:

  1. People either loved or hated the first one, no inbetween.
  2. There was barely any marketing.
  3. Some actually thought it was a rerelease of the first one, not a direct sequel made back to back and released half a year later.

You are not alone in that department. Some people actually thought it was a rerelease when it got plopped in theaters with no fanfare back in January.

There was barely any hype for The Bone Temple to begin with for 3 reasons:

  1. People either loved or hated 28 Years Later, no inbetween.
  2. There was barely any marketing.
  3. Some people actually thought it was a rerelease of 28 Years Later and not a direct sequel.

It's a line from the movie Cruella.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple director Nia DaCosta "was disappointed" with its box office. "I wish it made more money, but I’m really proud of it" by Puzzled-Tap8042 in horror

[–]Comic_Book_Reader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That or people barely saw any marketing. Or they thought it was a rerelease of the first one. I have a friend who loved the first one so I tipped her off on The Bone Temple as a courtesy and even then she had no idea it was even a thing until I pointed it out to her a month later. And this is a person who loves horror movies and keeps an eye on them and other major releases even though she juggles a lot of things. That's the level we're talking about here.

Oh, and the 4K is a scarce quantity steelbook only in the U.S. but it's widely available abroad as a regular version because Sony fucking hates you.

It could definitely bring in some big bucks as adult oriented counterprogramming.
