Overview
- Mark Fischbach wrote, directed, starred in, financed, and self-distributed the film, adapting David Szymanski’s 2022 indie horror game on a reported $3 million budget.
- Exhibitor interest fueled by fan outreach expanded the release from a planned 50 or so screens to 3,015 theaters across North America.
- Opening receipts reached about $17.8 million domestically and roughly $21.5–$21.7 million worldwide, far exceeding production cost.
- Reviews show a sharp split, with critics around 50% on Rotten Tomatoes and audiences around 89–90% after the first weekend.
- After briefly disappearing from some box-office trackers, the title is listed again, and Fischbach told fans in an emotional livestream that the theatrical run will be short with fewer theaters next weekend.
