One of the movies delayed by the pandemic, A Quiet Place Part II, made almost the same as the first movie’s $50 million that it made in its opening weekend a few years back, with $48.38 million coming from the regular weekend and an additional $10 million boost from the additional Memorial Day holiday.
In stark contradiction to its title, A Quiet Place Part II has been making a lot of noise at the box office, taking $58 million during Memorial Weekend.
While many horror sequels have a habit of abandoning that which made the original so successful, in the case of A Quiet Place the mostly unseen creatures and a very tight script that focused as much on the intimate plight of a struggling family as it did on the monsters, A Quiet Place Part II seems to have kept true to its roots.
With many of the early reviews pronouncing A Quiet Place Part II a worthy sequel and a legitimate continuation of the story, it would not be surprising if that rumored third installment is already well on the way to being green lit.
