5th Place in Theater Average for weekend of 18-20 UPDATED


So I don't know numbers that well but Day Zero is in 5th place for theater averages right behind 27 Dresses.

It goes like this:
Cloverfield: $12,019
Persepolis: $9,366
There Will Be Blood: $8,023
27 Dresses: $7,336
Day Zero: $6,350

I believe that is good. I mean, for only 2 theaters making $12,700 (ESTIMATED) is good.

Thanks for pointing this out. We're proud of what we achieved in our opening weekend in limited release. More is always better of course :) but at the end of the day to come in 5th place of all films on a per-screen basis is something we can hold our heads up high about.

Thanks again

Where in Jersey is Voorhees? I am also in NJ so I am just wondering

Weekend actuals just came in.

For the three day weekend it made $12,070. A $6,035 per theater.
For the four day weekend it made $13,800. A $6,900 per theater.

Just saying, it might have been better if the distributors released it last week or the weekend before. Going up against Cloverfield was a bad move IMO.

Back in may/april? That Q&A?

I go to Cherry hill for Monster Mania. It is less than an hour from me. It is awesome. So many people this year.

Really? I have one theater like that. It just opened last year and called SOPAC (South Orange Performing Arts Center). It has a stage for events and 5 screens for movies. Not limited ones, big released ones but since it is new the seats are new and they give you giant amounts of leg room and big cushions.

They took that with the trees infront. Really, there is a parking lot under those trees.

Lucky. I didn't know there was a Q&A.

Been there only once before at a midnight screening after a book signing for Bruce Campbell. Hard to remember the theater
