Despite its strong cast and fascinating concept, Brightburn failed to perform at the box office when it hit theaters in May.
Brightburn also has a strong cast, with Elizabeth Banks, Breaking Bad’s Matt Jones and The Office’s David Denman filling out Brandon’s family.
It’s just too bad the horror movie didn’t perform well enough for a dark origin story universe to take shape.
Brightburn makes my list of best horror movies for the year mostly because of the grisly way the title character’s powers are used throughout its runtime.
