Even though we’re already well into November, this week showed that it’s still a spooky season. Heretica horror thriller about two Mormon missionaries tortured by Hugh Grant as he tried to test their faith fell behind Poison at the box office for opening weekend. But just like in the film, not all hope is lost in the end. It is estimated to make around $10 million this weekend and will be one of the highest grossing openings for A24; possibly take third place afterwards Civil war ($25 million) and Heir ($13.6 million.) Heretic barely passing the light palate cleanser The best Christmas parade ever, which earned about $9.5 million this weekend, but still did quite well and could potentially break even next weekend. Now we wonder if A24 will share how well Heretic did in Utah, given the critical acclaim of the Whitneys’ film.
