Distributors have noticed a significant rise in box office revenue from the animated movie. However, this could also be because many fans are drawn to the film after it earned positive praise. The outlet claimed that the same trend happened on Monday’s Indigenous Peoples Day holiday.
If the speculation is true andTerrifier 3should be earning more, it still does not omit the possibility that it might become the highest-grossing unrated film of all time. So far, it has made over$30 millionat the global box office against a production cost of $2 million. This figure alone already spells victory for Cineverse Corp.
Studio CEO Chris McGurk told the outlet that even they were surprised with the outcome. “We didn’t have a problem getting the screens we got this time. We knew it was going to do well, but we didn’t imagine it was going to do this,” he said. They already had a hunch from the start because of the number of advanced ticket sales and social media presence.

Well I mean Terrifier is unrated, so they shouldn’t even have to do this?
Kids always find a way to make things more thrilling, even outside the screen!
