Evil Dead Burn raking in the cash with old school gore

Evil Dead Burn dropped on July 10 and already pulled in around 65 million worldwide on a 20 million budget. That's more than triple the money back in just a couple weeks, with 29 million domestic and the rest overseas. Sébastien Vaniček directed this one and Sam Raimi produced it, keeping the chainsaw and cabin vibes heavy without pulling any punches on the blood and guts.

The movie hit fourth place opening weekend at 13.7 million domestic but held decent after that. Critics are giving it 72 percent on Rotten Tomatoes for being the meanest and nastiest entry yet, with some saying the practical effects and relentless pace stand out. It stars Souheila Yacoub and Hunter Doohan in the lead roles, and folks are calling it a solid win for horror fans who want straight scares over anything else.

Numbers like these show people still line up for unfiltered franchise entries that deliver on the original promise. The second weekend dropped but it still added another 5 million or so, proving the word of mouth is carrying it. If you like your horror raw and without modern lectures baked in, this one checks the boxes from what the early numbers and reviews are saying.
