John Krasinski’s acclaimed horror film A Quiet Place was the runaway victor this weekend at the box office, while Black Panther continued its rise up the all-time charts.
Per Box Office Mojo, A Quiet Place secured the #1 spot this weekend with an impressive $50 million haul.
After debuting at SXSW last month, A Quiet Place generated very positive buzz for its inventive premise and directorial prowess.
A Quiet Place most definitely is a smashing success, as its $71 million worldwide total far eclipses its tiny $17 million production budget. It wouldn’t be surprising if Paramount looked to make a sequel to their new horror blockbuster.
