Five years ago, genre regular Samara Weaving starred in a very cool horror comedy called Ready or Not, which was directed by Radio Silence members Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who went on to make the two most recent Scream sequels and the “Dracula’s daughter” movie Abigail. Earlier this year, it was announced that a sequel is now moving forward, with Escape Room director Adam Robitel taking the helm of a Ready or Not 2 that Radio Silence, still on board as producers, has promised will be “an absolute banger.” Now, during an interview with ComicBook.com, Weaving has confirmed that she is “all in” on the sequel.

When the subject of Ready or Not 2 came up, Weaving told ComicBook.com, “I’m all in. I think we’re all in, I don’t know. I think we’re all in. I don’t know if we’ve had our blood handshake,...

Back in April, reports did the rounds that a sequel to 2019 horror hit Ready or Not was in the works with Adam Robitel in talks to direct.

The original movie's directors, Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin (aka Radio Silence), would later confirm to Entertainment Weekly that the project is in the very early stages of development.

“It’s getting figured out. That’s what we’ll say: Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out,” Gillett told the site. “What we can say is that there is a script that is an absolute f*cking banger of a sequel. And however it gets made, and in whatever capacity we are helping get it made, we are so excited that it’s happening.”

“I don’t think we knew after making [Ready or Not] that there would be so much story left to tell,” Gillett continued. “We’re so proud of what that first movie is,...

A sequel to the Radio Silence hit Ready or Not is in the works, with Adam Robitel (The Taking of Deborah Logan, Insidious: The Last Key, Escape Room, Escape Room: Tournament of Champions) in talks to direct Ready or Not 2. But will Samara Weaving be returning to star in the upcoming sequel? According to Weaving herself, she’s “all in.”

Weaving tells ComicBook.com this week, “I’m all in. I think we’re all in, I don’t know. I think we’re all in. I don’t know if we’ve had our blood handshake, but pretty much. We’ve done the spit handshake, but we haven’t cut each other’s hands and rubbed our blood together.”

Samara Weaving will next be seen in Azrael, in theaters September 27.

Ready or Not directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin had explained to Entertainment Weekly earlier this year, “Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out.

Documentary

Famously Haunted:...

Exclusive: Max Martini (The Tender Bar), Kirk Acevedo (Band Of Brothers) and Patricia De Leon (Mayans M.C.) have joined the Season 2 cast of Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness in recurring roles.

Lioness stars Zoe Saldaña, who also executive produces, Laysla De Oliveira, Genesis Rodriguez and Michael Kelly, with Morgan Freeman, and Nicole Kidman, who executive produces.

Inspired by an actual U.S. Military program, Lioness follows the life of Joe (Saldaña) while she attempts to balance her personal and professional life as the tip of the CIA’s spear in the war on terror.

In Season 2, as the CIA’s fight against terror moves closer to home, Joe (Saldaña), Kaitlyn (Kidman), and Byron (Kelly) enlist a new Lioness operative to infiltrate a previously unknown threat. With pressure mounting from all sides, Joe is forced to confront the profound personal sacrifices she has made as the leader of the Lioness program.

Stars: Nikko Austen Smith, Manny Liotta, George Baron, Olivia Scott Welch, Ray Wise, Danielle Bisutti, Evee Bui, Glume Harlow, Jordyn Denning, Logan Miller | Written and Directed by George Baron

Writer/director/star George Baron was sixteen when he started filming The Blue Rose, two years later he had a finished feature film playing on the festival circuit and getting picked up for release. And not just any film, but, as you might guess from the title, a tribute to David Lynch that’s as bizarre as any of his own films.

It opens with a woman on stage planting a seed and watering it with what appears to be blood. A blue rose sprouts. Cut to three blue roses growing in a window box of a 1950s suburban home. Inside, Sophie dances around her immaculate kitchen making pies. The dance becomes a deadly one when her husband Harold enraged about something unknown punches her,...

The "Insidious" franchise shows no signs of stopping. There's both a spin-off movie and a new sequel on the way, and the most recent entry, "The Red Door," was a big hit in 2023. And for the most part, this horror series has remained strong. Not every film works, but the majority of the entries are solid scare-fests full of all sorts of spooky mayhem. The series kicked-off all the way back in 2011 with James Wan's "Insidious," and now here we are all these years later, still waiting for more. With that in mind, why don't we go back through the entire franchise so far and rank the titles, from worst to best? Come along with us into the Further and watch out for jump-scares.

Insidious: The Last Key

The "Insidious" franchise did a curious thing: it introduced a character, killed her off,...

One of horror's most reliable franchises is coming back for a brand new installment next summer. While little has been revealed by way of specifics, Sony Pictures has dated "Insidious 6" for next summer. The film is now due to hit theaters on August 29, 2025, per Variety. Mark your calendars and plan accordingly, supernatural lovers of the world.

What's truly interesting is that this is just one of two new "Insidious" movies in the works at the moment. Sony and Blumhouse Productions are also collaborating on a spin-off titled "Thread: An Insidious Tale," which will star Mandy Moore ("47 Meters Down") and Kumail Nanjiani ("Eternals"). Jeremy Slater ("Moon Knight") set to write and direct. In short, the long-running franchise is expanding after taking a five-year break between 2018's "Insidious: The Last Key" and last year's "Insidious: The Red Door."

Dating back to director James Wan's original breakout hit "Insidious" in 2011, this franchise has been remarkably consistent.

Insidious might have had the shortest film retirement ever. Sony has set a release date for a sixth film in the franchise, August 29, 2025.

The news comes a little over a year after Blumhouse founder Jason Blum told Discussing Film that the fifth movie, Insidious: The Red Door, would be the last one "for a while." Adding that the franchise would go into a "very long rest," and potentially be revisited in ten years or so.

But to be fair to Blum, he did that interview before The Red Door made a killing at the box office, proving there is still fanfare for the popular horror franchise.

The Red Door, which marked star Patrick Wilson's directorial debut, outgrossed all four previous Insidious movies and became one of the highest-grossing horror movies of 2023, raking in over $189 million worldwide.

Sony did not reveal any plans for the sixth Insidious film, just the release date.

In the wake of last year’s box office hit Insidious: The Red Door, Sony has announced tonight that the next installment in the Insidious franchise has been dated for 2025 release.

You can expect the untitled next movie in theaters August 29, 2025.

Deadline notes in their report tonight that this particular project is Not the previously announced spinoff movie Thread: An Insidious Tale, which doesn’t yet have a release date.

Mandy Moore and Kumail Nanjiani will star in Thread: An Insidious Tale.

Director James Wan’s original Insidious movie in 2011 was followed by Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013), Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015), Insidious: The Last Key (2018), and last year’s Insidious: The Red Door, which became the highest grossing movie in the entire franchise thus far.

Needless to say, this franchise still has a lot of life left in it. Stay tuned for more.

The post Next ‘Insidious’ Movie Releasing in Theaters Summer 2025 appeared first on Bloody Disgusting!

It was first reported a couple weeks ago that Ready or Not 2 is now in development, with Adam Robitel (The Taking of Deborah Logan, Insidious: The Last Key, Escape Room, Escape Room: Tournament of Champions) in talks to direct the sequel to the 2019 box office hit. Additionally, we had learned that Samara Weaving would be returning to star.

Entertainment Weekly caught up with Ready or Not directors Tyler Gillett and Matt Bettinelli-Olpin in the wake of those reports, and we’ve now got an update straight from the source.

“It’s getting figured out. That’s what we’ll say: Ready or Not 2 is getting figured out,” Gillett tells EW, confirming last month’s report. “What we can say is that there is a script that is an absolute fucking banger of a sequel. And however it gets made, and in whatever capacity we are helping get it made, we...

We have the 2019 hit Ready or Not to thank for landing directors Radio Silence the keys to the Scream franchise, the film released into theaters in August 2019 and scaring up $57.6 million at the worldwide box office. The Samara Weaving-starring fan favorite was made on a production budget of just $6 million, making it a nice little hit for Fox Searchlight.

So where the hell is Ready or Not 2, you ask?!

Jeff Sneider reports on The Insneider this week that Ready or Not 2 is in development, with director Adam Robitel currently in talks to direct the sequel.

Sneider additionally reports that Samara Weaving will return for Ready or Not 2, once again playing the character Grace. In the first Ready or Not, Grace is a bride whose wedding night takes a sinister turn when her eccentric new in-laws force her to take part in a terrifying game.

You can read the full report over on The Insneider.

Ready or Not was a deliciously twisted play on the concept of meeting the family of one’s fiancée. Samara Waving plays a young woman who is invited on the night of her wedding by her new husband’s rich, eccentric family to participate in a time-honored tradition that turns into a lethal game with everyone fighting for their survival. The horror comedy also starred Adam Brody, Mark O’Brien, Elyse Levesque, Henry Czerny, and Andie MacDowell and was directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who have gone on to direct Scream (2022) and Scream VI.

Ready or Not was written by Guy Busick and R. Christopher Murphy. However, Bettinelli-Olpin and Gillett are currently involved with a new Universal Monsters project, so they will not be returning for Ready or Not 2. Instead, ComingSoon.net reports that Escape Room director Adam Robitel will be taking the reins for the sequel. The scoop comes from industry source,...

Traditionally the first month of the year has been a dumping ground as studios have steered clear of the residual glow of the holiday blockbusters and the prestige films audiences try to catch up on before the awards begin to air. January may not be the best time to launch your new $300 million budgeted tent pole franchise picture, but it has proven a great launch pad for moderately budgeted horror films.

Over the past ten years we have seen films such as Texas Chainsaw (2013- $21.7 million opening), Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones (2014- $18.3 million opening), Insidious: The Last Key (2018- $29.5 million opening), Escape Room (2019- $18.2 million opening), Scream (2022- $33.8 million opening) and M3GAN (2023- $30.4 million opening) show that audiences like to kick off their new years with a little bit of spine tingling scares.

This year James Wan and Jason Blum, who recently announced the merger of their two production companies,...

The film follows parapsychologist Elise Rainier and her team as they travel to Five Keys, New Mexico, to investigate a haunting in her childhood home.

“Insidious: The Last Key” is part of the popular horror franchise known for its spine-tingling scares and supernatural thrills. In this installment, viewers can expect a gripping and suspenseful story as Elise delves into the mysteries of her past and confronts the malevolent force that threatens her life and sanity.

If you’re a fan of supernatural horror and suspense, don’t miss “Insidious: The Last Key” on AMC at 12:00 Am, October 4, 2023. Get ready for a night of chilling encounters and paranormal terror.

The episode of Best Horror Movie You Never Saw covering 2001 Maniacs was Written by Cody Hamman, Narrated by Kier Gomes, Edited by Juan Jimenez, Produced by John Fallon and Tyler Nichols, and Executive Produced by Berge Garabedian.

Robert Englund doing a demented Colonel Sanders impression. Lin Shaye putting on a deadly song and dance routine. Enough politically incorrect elements to offend pretty much everybody. Buckets of gore. Gratuitous nudity. And a cameo appearance by Eli Roth, playing his Cabin Fever character. Put all of this together and you get 2001 Maniacs (watch it Here). The director calls it a “splatstick” movie. Splatter combined with slapstick comedy. We call it The Best Horror Movie You Never Saw.

Let the fall movie season commence! Kids are back in school, leaves are turning brown, Spirit Halloween stores are in full swing, and it is time to get audiences ready for the spookiest time of the year. While Hollywood had been trying to replicate the success of Marvel Studio’s shared universe concept, James Wan has lowkey created his own shared universe within the horror community with the Conjuring series and spin-offs. The newest entry in the world of hauntings premieres this weekend as The Nun 2 makes its debut in theaters.

Deadline is reporting that the demon in the habit has opened with $3.1 million in advanced preview Thursday screenings in 3,200 theaters. Although the mid-budget movies tend to become modest enough hits, this entry is not expected to best the first movie’s record-breaking total of $53.8 million. The Nun 2 is still estimated to jump-start its run with just over $30 million.

Even if you don't know his name, you've probably seen the work of Javier Botet. Specifically, if you've watched a horror movie in the 21st century, you've almost surely seen him. Or rather, you've seen his creatures. After scaring the pants off audiences worldwide with his terrifying work in the modern classics "Rec" and "Rec 2," Botet became horror's go-to "monster guy," sliding into the unsettling skins of ghosts, demons, zombies, aliens, and even non-Pennywise incarnations of the titular creature in "It." On the small screen, he played creatures in "Star Trek: Discovery" and "Game of Thrones." On the big screen, his credits include  "Mama," "The Conjuring 2," "Crimson Peak," "His House," "Insidious: The Last Key," and so much more. He's the century's definitive monster performer. 

Born with Marfan syndrome, Botet has utilized his physical differences to pull off characters who feel like walking, actually-there special effects. He stands 6' 7" tall and he's impossibly thin,...

In Bram Stoker's 1897 novel "Dracula," the titular Count travels from his remote castle in the Carpathian Mountains to a new home in England on a ship called the Demeter. He travels with multiple coffins filled with earth and is sealed in a coffin of his own. Weeks after departing, the Demeter drifts into Whitby Harbor. No one is on board. Instantly, readers knew the story: Dracula -- requiring human blood to survive -- sneaked out of his coffin at night to pick off the Demeter's crew one by one. The reader is left to imagine their harrowing experience. 

In André Øvredal's upcoming, long-gestating film "The Last Voyage of the Demeter," however, one no longer needs to imagine. The film is set entirely on the Demeter, depicting the crew discovering their dwindling numbers and the slow realization that a demonic vampire may be on board. The film stars Corey Hawkins,...

With this weekend’s grosses, Sony/Screen Gems/Stage 6 Films/Blumhouse’s Insidious: The Red Door has become the biggest horror movie of the year globally at $182.5M. It edged the worldwide cume of Blumhouse’s own M3GAN ($180.8M) which is now the No. 2 horror title of 2023 to date. The current Red Door frame was worth $2.5M from 59 overseas markets for an international cume of $101.8M. Through Sunday, the Insidious franchise has earned over $735M worldwide.

Already last frame, the Patrick Wilson-directed and starring fifth in the series had become the highest-grossing of the 13-year-old franchise. The Red Door is a direct continuation of the first two movies and also stars Rose Byrne, Ty Simpkins, Lin Shaye and Leigh Whannell.

When it originally opened in early July, it nabbed the top launch for a horror title since 2019 internationally. Domestically, it bowed at No. 1, higher than the last...

After five years, “Insidious” is taking fans to the Further once more with “Insidious: The Red Door.” The latest installment is now available on Digital, which means now is the perfect time to catch up on the creepy franchise (or experience it for the first time). Beginning with “Insidious” in 2010, the horror films center around a family who finds themselves haunted by demons from another realm, along with the people who try to help them.

Created by horror veteran Leigh Whannell (who also created the “Saw” franchise along with James Wan), each installment of the “Insidious” takes viewers deeper into the Further, a nightmarish dimension populated by tortured spirits and ruled over by a malevolent demon. “The Red Door” will be the fifth installment in the franchise, and will once again focus on the Lambert family, with Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, and Ty Simpkins all reprising their roles from the first two films.

While "Insidious: The Red Door" may be nearing the end of its box office run (it's available on Digital as of today), the movie is rounding out its time in theaters on a high note. With its most recent weekend in the books, Patrick Wilson's feature directorial debut now stands alone as the highest-grossing entry in the wildly successful horror franchise.

As of this writing, "The Red Door" has earned $174.8 million worldwide (per The Numbers), meaning it has overtaken 2018's "Insidious: The Last Key" ($172.8 million) to become the biggest entry in the series to date. For Sony Pictures, the best part is that the movie carries an extremely reasonable $16 million production budget. Even better? That still makes it the most expensive film of the five that have been released thus far. These movies have been made on the cheap and have consistently delivered the goods. In this case, it...

Yesterday, we shared the news that Insidious: The Red Door, the fifth film in the Insidious horror franchise (you can read our review Here), has officially become the highest-grossing entry in the franchise at the worldwide box office, with its $174,382,000 leaving previous record holder Insidious: The Last Key‘s final count of $172,811,971 in the dust. Now the film has been given a premium VOD release, showing up on outlets like Vudu and Amazon (rent or buy it at This Link).

Insidious: The Red Door marks the feature directorial debut of Insidious and Insidious: Chapter 2 star Patrick Wilson. The screenplay was written by Halloween Kills co-writer Scott Teems, based on an idea from Leigh Whannell, who created the franchise with James Wan. The story catches up with the family from the first two films, the Lamberts, ten years after the end of Insidious 2. Josh Lambert heads east to drop his son Dalton off at an idyllic,...

Officially the highest grossing film in the entire Insidious franchise, new sequel Insidious: The Red Door is still raking in money in theaters, and it’s now available to watch at home.

Catching us completely by surprise this morning, Insidious: The Red Door is now available to purchase ($24.99) or rent ($19.99) on Digital platforms including Amazon and Vudu.

As a special, scary treat, Vudu is also offering an exclusive offer in celebration of the new movie’s at-home premiere – the entire Insidious 5-movie collection on Vudu for $39.99.

To further celebrate Insidious: The Red Door coming to the platform, Vudu is also sharing an exclusive extended scene from the film, which you can check out down below.

The worldwide total for Insidious: The Red Door as of this writing is $174,417,507, passing Insidious: The Last Key‘s former franchise-best worldwide total of $167,885,588.

The horror franchise’s original cast is back in Insidious: The Red Door,...

I haven’t seen much chatter about Insidious: The Red Door, the fifth film in the Insidious horror franchise (you can read our review Here), but movie-goers have obviously been showing up for it. The film had a very successful opening weekend, drawing in $32.65 million at the domestic box office and $64 million worldwide on a budget that’s said to be around $16 million. Now The Numbers has confirmed that Insidious: The Red Door has managed to become the highest-grossing film in the franchise at the worldwide box office. It’s currently sitting at a total of $174,382,000, surpassing its predecessor Insidious: The Last Key‘s final count of $172,811,971. And its theatrical run isn’t over yet.

As of right now, Insidious: The Red Door‘s domestic number sits at $78,082,000, so Insidious: Chapter 2 still holds the domestic record of $83,586,447. But if The Red Door can manage to pull in another $5 million and change at home,...

In its fourth week of release in theaters, the Patrick Wilson-directed Insidious: The Red Door found itself in the #9 spot on the domestic box office charts this past weekend, officially crossing a major milestone for the franchise. The Red Door, primarily a sequel to the first two Insidious movies, is now the highest grossing film in the entire Insidious franchise.

The worldwide total for Insidious: The Red Door as of this writing is $174,381,584, passing Insidious: The Last Key‘s former franchise-best worldwide total of $167,885,588.

The Red Door has scared up $78 million of its franchise best total here in the United States, while a massive $96 million of the film’s total has been earned internationally.

Over the weekend, the film made another $3 million here in the United States.

The production budget for The Red Door was reportedly a mere $16 million, so the fifth franchise installment has proven to be incredibly...

In its second weekend of release, fifth franchise installment Insidious: The Red Door has been bumped to the #3 spot on the domestic box office charts, largely thanks to chart-topping new release Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One. But that’s not bad news for the new Insidious movie, which has now officially passed the $100 million landmark.

Worldwide, Insidious: The Red Door has scared up $122,585,554, $58 million of which was made here in the United States. The international number is currently $64.5 million.

To date, the highest total worldwide number for the franchise is $167.8 million (Insidious: The Last Key), so that’s currently the number for Insidious: The Red Door to beat.

Will The Red Door become the highest grossing movie in the Insidious franchise in the coming weeks? We’ll be keeping a close eye on the box office charts. Stay tuned.

It’s important to note that the production budget...

Tom Cruise‘s action flick “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One,” the seventh installment of the franchise that began way back in 1996, opened across the country and did decently, but maybe not as well as some hoped or expected. Read on for the weekend box office report.

“Mission: Impossible 7” opened early on Wednesday with previews on Tuesday, but it came into the week with absolutely fantastic reviews with 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. Directed by Christopher McQuarrie (his third movie in the franchise), Cruise was once again joined by Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames and Vanessa Kirby, with new players in Hayley Atwell, Esai Morales and Pom Klementieff.

For the first time in five years, the Insidious franchise is back on the big screen with Insidious: The Red Door, a brand new sequel to the first two movies that was directed by franchise star Patrick Wilson. The Lambert family’s saga comes to a conclusion in The Red Door, which just scared up a pretty impressive opening weekend domestically and worldwide.

Insidious: The Red Door topped the domestic box office charts this weekend, besting Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny in that film’s second weekend. In 3,188 theaters across the United States, The Red Door opened up to $32,650,000 over the weekend, giving the franchise its highest opening weekend since the release of Insidious: Chapter 2 back in 2013.

Here are the domestic opening weekend numbers for each film in the franchise…

Insidious (2010) – $13.2 million Insidious: Chapter 2 (2013) – $40.2 million Insidious: Chapter 3 (2015) – $22.6 million Insidious: The Last Key (2018) – $29.5 million Insidious: The Red Door (2023) – $32.6 million

Worldwide,...

Indiana Jones’ reign atop the box office was short-lived. In its second weekend in theatres, the Disney release was usurped by another franchise fifth – “Insidious: The Red Door.” The horror film starring and directed by Patrick Wilson scared up $32.7 million in ticket sales from 3,188 theatres, according to studio estimates on Sunday.

It did better than the last installment, “Insidious: The Last Key,” from 2018 and is the most any PG-13 horror movie has earned in its debut in the past two years.

“Insidious 5” was not well reviewed — but modestly budgeted scary movies are often critic-proof when it comes to the box office. This Blumhouse-produced franchise starring Wilson and Rose Byrne began in 2011 under the direction of James Wan and has been responsible for over $570 million in global box office returns — and none of the films have cost more than $16 million to produce. Only the first movie received a “fresh” rating...

Fired up by a lively...

Update: Busy weekend at the international box office with a strong scary new entry, some unexpected spark in holds and a milestone for a long-running franchise.

Out of the gate this frame, Sony/Screen Gems/Stage 6 Films/Blumhouse’s Insidious: The Red Door knocked out the biggest overseas horror debut since 2019. With $31.4M from 52 markets; this is also the best for the franchise in like-for-like markets. Including domestic, the global bow is $64M.

Offshore, the Patrick Wilson-directed and starring fifth in the series, which is a direct continuation of the first two movies, is tracking 27% ahead of Insidious: The Last Key at current exchange rates, and bigger than recent horror franchise releases Evil Dead Rise (+58%) and Scream VI (+30%).

Horror-leaning Mexico led play with a No. 1 $5.8M, marking Sony’s biggest ever horror opening in the territory. The scarer also scored a record in the Philippines as the highest horror...

Indiana Jones had a short-lived box office reign. Disney’s action-adventure “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” dropped to the No. 2 spot in its second weekend of release, earning $26.5 million from 4,600 North American theaters. It was dethroned by Sony’s horror-thriller “Insidious: The Red Door,” which beat expectations with its $32.6 million debut from 3,188 venues.

Ticket sales for “Indiana Jones,” the fifth and final installment to star Harrison Ford’s swashbuckling adventurer, declined by 56% from its $60 million opening weekend, continuing the theatrical misfortunes for the nearly $300 million-budgeted movie. “Dial of Destiny” added $31.8 million at the international box office, bringing worldwide ticket sales to $247.9 million. It has a long and winding journey to get out of the red, at least in its box office run.

The fifth “Insidious” movie cost just $16 million to make, so it’s already reaping big rewards in its box office run. That improves on the start of its predecessor,...

Sunday Am Writethru after Saturday update: Post Covid, there are a lot of studios that have been able to make horror work at the box office, including Paramount with Smile, Warner Bros with Evil Dead Rise, and Universal with M3GAN and The Black Phone.

But not Sony. Until now.

Red Door is opening to $32.65M this weekend, the second-best start in the Insidious franchise after Chapter 2′s $40.2M, entombing Indiana Jones in second place with a $26.5M second weekend. Red Door also reps the best start in the last two years for a PG-13 horror movie. More pom-poms for Sony: their Marvel Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse just outstripped Disney/Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3 as the highest-grossing movie of the summer, $357.6M to $357.5M.

For Blumhouse, Red Door is its 16th title to open at No. 1. While tentpoles get all the glory in the post-Covid marketplace,...

Sony/Screen Gems/Blumhouse’s “Insidious: The Red Door” is beating both “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” and its own box office projections to take the No. 1 spot at the box office, earning $15 million from 3,188 theaters on its opening day as industry estimates now have it earning $31 million this weekend.

Earlier this week, independent projections had the fifth “Insidious” film earning a $22-24 million opening. Instead, “The Red Door” — a film that marks the directorial debut of series star Patrick Wilson and concludes the story of his character, Josh Lambert — is set to pass the $29.5 million opening of “Insidious: The Last Key” in 2018 to set a new high for the horror franchise. It is just above the $30.4 million opening of fellow Blumhouse production “M3GAN” earlier this year.

Like the rest of Hollywood, the famously thrifty Blumhouse has not been able to avoid the toll of inflation on production...

Insidious: The Red Door, the fifth film in the Insidious horror franchise, is now in theatres (you can read our review Here). A spin-off, Thread: An Insidious Tale, is already in the works… and producer James Wan, who also directed the first two Insidious movies, has implied that there could be many more Insidious spin-offs in our future. One franchise cast member who has ideas for further Insidious sequels or spin-offs is Lin Shaye, who has played psychic medium Elise Rainier throughout the series. Speaking with Screen Rant, Shaye said she might start working with her son to put together a treatment and/or lookbook so she can pitch those ideas to the powers that be.

Shaye said, “I have some ideas, I’ve thought about doing a little treatment with some thoughts I have about where (Elise) is in The Further, what she could be doing in The Further.

“Insidious” is a strange franchise in that it has often been overshadowed by James Wan’s other Patrick Wilson-starring supernatural haunting series (“The Conjuring”). Also, after two installments from Film District and another two from Comcast, “Insidious: The Red Door” comes courtesy of Sony. They are certainly pulling their weight if Thursday previews are any indication.

The Patrick Wilson-directed installment is the first present-tense sequel since “Insidious: Chapter 2” in 2013 as “Chapter 3” in 2015 and “The Last Key” in 2018 were prequels giving a spotlight to Lin Shaye’s ghostbuster. Absence has apparently made the heart grow fonder, as this one nabbed $5 million in Thursday previews. For reference, the last three “Insidious” films earned $5.18 million in Thursday previews *combined*.

The Sony/Screen Gems/Stag 6/Blumhouse entry, set a decade after “Insidious: Chapter 2” and serving as a quasi-legacy sequel for the main haunted Lambert family, pulled a better Thursday figure than...

The mega-budget movie bubble is seeing some imploding this year, with summer tentpoles sporting highly recognizable IP names taking some blows at the box office. Meanwhile, mid-budget movies that seem like riskier ventures are enjoying modest success. One film that straddles the line is the fifth entry in the popular Insidious series. Insidious: The Red Door continues the scares and capitalizes on a loyal audience fanbase looking for good old-fashioned horror fun.

Deadline is reporting that the Thursday preview numbers for Insidious: The Red Door is doing such good business that it nearly locked out Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny at the box office last night. The James Wan-produced horror sequel is helmed by the film’s star Patrick Wilson and boasts an epic conclusion to the story. Insidious: The Red Door was able to conjure up $5 million from early previews that screened at 2,806 locations...

Sony starting latest ‘Insidious’ film, Picturehouse has ‘Smoking Causes Coughing’ for independents.

Elemental, the latest Disney-Pixar animation collaboration, is the widest opening title at this weekend’s UK-Ireland box office, which sees reduced location numbers due to the immediate closure of six sites in the Empire Cinemas chain.

The chain, which has 14 cinemas and 129 screens, is entering administration, with venues at Bishop’s Stortford, Catterick Garrison, Sunderland, Swindon, Walthamstow and Wigan all closing today.

Elemental will therefore start in 625 venues, down slightly from its anticipated number. Directed by Peter Sohn, Elemental is set in a city where fire, water, land...
