2. Five Nights at Freddy’s 2– $19.5M/$95.4M

7. Ella McCay (review)- $2.1M
20th Century Studios dropped James L. Brooks’ atrocious Ella McCay into 2500 theaters, earning a woeful $2.1M in the process. Brooks is a legend whose resume (As Good As it Gets, Terms of Endearment, Broadcast News) speaks for itself, but this one was a disaster from start to finish. Positive word of mouth is nonexistent, with just 22% critical and 55% audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes. That’s despite a starry cast for the political comedy including Emma Mackey, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Woody Harrelson.
8. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (re-release)– $1.8M
9. Eternity– $1.7M/$12.9M
10. The Shining (re-release)– $1.5M
