IT is now on track to become the highest grossing domestic horror movie ever, beating long-standing classic The Exorcist.
According to Deadline, Warner Bros. is calling it a record from a pure genre outlook with Jaws, The Sixth Sense, and I am Legend considered as horror movie hybrids.
Before IT came around, New Line dominated the genre, but it looks like Warner Bros. just took over that throne and in record time.
IT devoured its competition in its debut weekend, earning a record breaking $123 million dollars domestically, making it the highest grossing horror movie debut of all-time.
