USA box office on first weekend of October (2017-2023)

 
USA box office on Friday of the first weekend of October 2023 is  up 39% compared to last year when "Smile" was the top-grossing movie.  

But it's down 62% compared to the 2018 peak when "Venom" was the top-grossing movie.

The sequels — or, in two cases, prequels — to “The Exorcist” have all been unqualified turkeys. There is now a movement at hand to declare that John Boorman’s crackpot insect-swarm fantasia “Exorcist II: The Heretic” (1977) was some sort of misunderstood masterpiece, but that’s an act of revisionism every bit as loony tunes as “Heaven’s Gate” revisionism. 
That said, the “Exorcist” genre has never left the culture.
