It might have been controversial at first<\/u> for daring to adapt the feel of the games rather than the story and characters, but Zach Cregger\u2019s Resident Evil<\/u> is a massive success. The horror flick has passed $360 million at the global box office, and is outpacing some big horror hitters.<\/p>\n
After last weekend’s $22.6 million haul, Resident Evil is now on $361.1 million worldwide, a figure that makes it the highest-grossing Resident Evil movie ever, and Cregger’s biggest commercial hit. According to box office watchers, at the five weekend mark, Resident Evil is outpacing Alien: Romulus ($330 million), Backrooms ($331 million), and Obsession ($287 million).<\/p>\n
Resident Evil could hit $400 million by the end of its run, putting it ahead of Sinners ($370.4 million), but it may struggle to overtake Backrooms and Obsession’s final figures ($400.6 million and $522.8 million respectively). Both those movies had remarkable staying power in theaters, fueled by strong word of mouth. Indeed, Obsession is the fifth highest-grossing horror movie of all time (unadjusted for inflation).<\/p>\n
