ERC (early weekend est): LXORC $23 million, TAKER $19 million (nm) Aug 28, 08:55
Pretty much the numbers I came up with, too. {nm} Aug 28, 08:57
LOTKT had a huge drop-off... probably right out of the Top 10. {nm} Aug 28, 09:00
CinemaScores: Exorcism: D, Takers: B Aug 28, 11:31
It was just marketed as something different than it actually is (and the ending isn't great)... {nm} Aug 28, 11:42
I dug the movie until the last 5 minutes... {nm} Aug 28, 12:14
Horror is the most misunderstood genre. Piranha 3D is another example Aug 28, 13:33
Nope, you're definitely not the only one. Also, I can't be the only tired of the faux-doc style. Hate it. {nm} Aug 28, 13:58
I'm a big fan of faux docs, but i couldnt stand LXORC {nm} Aug 28, 14:29
hard gore and nudity isnt well received by general US audiences {nm} Aug 28, 14:36
and Exorcism as previously mentioned is a much different film than its marketing pushes and the grade reflects that {nm} Aug 28, 14:37
Fwiw, Winter's Bone is also marketed as something it is not - very misleading trailer. {nm} Aug 28, 16:38
Hard gore and nudity are what makes horror films like Piranha fun in the first place. {nm} Aug 28, 15:22
