What it's been out a week aren't we supposed to give it time? Oddly enough. The movie cost 5 mil and only made 7.5 mil. Aren't horror films usually flops ?

It made about 4.5 million. Most horror films open low, but have decent runs to make up for it. Star Wars/ Jumanji are going to make this hard for it to keep screens and get decent showtimes.

It’s also not a good movie. And it’s not bad in a fun way like some horror movies are. The first 2/3 of the movie feels like a hybrid of a freshman gender studies paper and fan fiction. And the last 1/3 just goes off the rails.

I wouldn’t look at that as a flop. all the buzz around this movie alone is saying something. Free advertisement. I look at it like horror movies are financially good as long as they make a profit over the expenses. Horror is a small niche anyway and not many people are into horror to the extent that we are but we are a loyal fan base - they will probably make up the back end off streams alone . And of course there will be the inevitable Black Christmas 2.
