Horror Sales: The Death of Green Lantern, Scream 4, and True Blood

Transformers is easily the highest grossing scifi flick at the Box Office. I’m still surprised to see Super 8 holding on so strong. Green Lantern definitely under performing. Insidious holding strong for horror films at #36. Trollhunter is right behind it at #37, having jumped up the chart more than 15 spots. Hobo With A Shotgun seems to be stalling and we can finally say R.I.P. to Scream 4.

1 2 Transformers: Dark of The Moon $149,210,000 (Total: $213,975,000)

6 5 Super 8 $12,688,000 (Total: $113,231,000)

7 4 Green Lantern $10,895,000 (Total: $106,583,000)

11 7 X-Men: First Class $4,905,000 (Total: $140,616,000)

13 10 Pirates/Stranger Tides $3,647,000 (Total: $235,195,000)

18 16 Thor $649,000 (Total: $178,166,000)

36 35 Insidious $77,000 (Total: $53,643,000)

37 54 Trollhunter $67,000 (Total: $130,000)

64 69 Hobo With A Shotgun $9,000 (Total: $687,000)

Battle: Los Angeles and True Blood still doing well at the DVD Top 30 Chart. Can’t say the same for I Am Number Four or Drive Angry. The new Transformers film caused Revenge of The Fallen to re-debut on the chart.

4 2 Battle: Los Angeles $2,595,000 (Total: $9,982,000)

6 10 True Blood: Season 3 $1,241,000 (Total: $28,294,000)

11 3 Red Riding Hood $1,062,000 (Total: $4,101,000)

15 6 Harry Potter/Hallows Part 1 $863,000 (Total: $72,120,000)

17 Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen $773,000 (Total: $218,364,000)

20 19 I Am Number Four $513,000 (Total: $11,255,000)

28 24 Green Lantern: Emerald Knights $258,000 (Total: $2,075,000)

29 23 Drive Angry $251,000 (Total: $3,822,000)

For Nielson ratings, all I’ll say is…what happened True Blood? You lost half of your viewers in one week! This leaves Falling Skies as the top horror/scifi show of the week. Also, I couldn’t find numbers for Nine Lives of Chloe King or Finding Bigfoot.

Falling Skies – 4,070,000

True Blood – 2,902,000

Supernatural (rerun) – 1,420,000

Twilight Zone (marathon) – 1,360,000

Teen Wolf – 1,208,000

The Vampire Diaries (rerun) – 1,160,000

Haunted Collector – 1,019,000

Hollywood Treasure – 1,010,000
