‘Annabelle: Creation’ Overtakes ‘Get Out’ As Most Profitable Horror Film Of The Year

With a world wide gross of 253 million dollars, Annabelle: Creation is now the most profitable horror film of the year, beating Get Out’s 252 million. Neither is a shabby haul, with both films far exceeding expectations. However Get Out being both an original I.P. and critically adored had many rooting for it to succeed over Annabelle: Creation, the fourth film in The Conjuring Universe and a prequel to the not very well liked at all Annabelle, released back in 2014. Overall it’s been an underwhelming year not just for horror, but movies in general, with several of the lowest box office weekends in recent history, and a steady stream of high profile flops. For every Get Out there seemed to be at least two releases like A Cure For Wellness. With It released this weekend and on track to pull in more than a few pennies , there’s still plenty of time for the year to turn things around.

What’s The Salary Of You’re Favorite Superhero?

While superhero’s tend to fight monsters rather than celebrate them like we at Horrorfuel do, they’re still a huge part of pop culture. And plenty of comic book characters can be suitably horrific in their own right (The New 52 Joker comes to mind). The folks over at Zippia.com, who love tight wearing do-gooders even more than we do, have put together an interesting and well researched graph into just how much our favorite superhero’s are making. Turns out not all of them have that Batman dead parent swag going for them, with jobs ranging from brain surgeon to ice-cream scooper. No wonder Ant-Man was a former thief.

David Birke has been brought on board by Lionsgate to pen the script based on the 1890 novel by Oscar Wilde.
