Verity‘s time at the top of the box office was short lived as Other Mommy took the top of the box office with an estimated $27.5 million. The horror film also grossed $17.7 million internationally for a worldwide debut of $45.2 million.

Verity slipped to second place with $11.5 million domestically to bring its domestic gross to $53.9 million. It doubled its total internationally over the week and has grossed $60.1 million. That puts the film at just under $114 worldwide after two weeks.

Heart of the Beast held on to third place with $7.1 million to bring its domestic gross to $49.7 million. The movie grossed $21.4 million over the week internationally to bring that total to $81.7 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $131.4 million.

Resident Evil slipped to fourth place from the last weekend’s second. The movie added $5.8 million to its domestic total which is now just under $136 million. Over the week, it grossed $61.2 million over the week internationally and now stands at $181.7 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $320.2 million.

Forgotten Island moved up one slot to fifth place with $4.5 million domestically and has now grossed $30.3 million. The movie has also grossed $19.9 million internationally for a worldwide total of $50.2 million.

Worldwide, the movie has grossed $98.3 million. The movie would need to gross around $120 million for Ketchup to make a profit and it’d have had to have grossed $140 million if Warner Bros. released it.

Numbers have 60 movies grossing $86,395,058 from 36,377 theaters for an average of $2,374.99. That is compared to last week’s 70 movies grossing $99,411,984 from 37,993 theaters for an average of $2,616.59.

Verity takes the weekend box office while Digger isn’t dug. Avengers: Endgame passes Avatar.

Verity took the weekend box office with an estimated debut of $32.6 million domestically and $30 million internationally for a worldwide debut of $62.6 million. With a budget of just $40 million, it’s a good opening which makes it highly likely the film will turn a profit for Amazon MGM Studios.

Resident Evil slipped one spot to second place with $12.5 million. It’s just a 45.7% drop, not bad for a horror movie or “blockbuster” which tend to open strong then quickly drop. The movie has grossed $124.9 million domestically. Internationally, the movie added $27.5 million over the week and now has grossed $120.5 million. That brings the film to $245.4 million worldwide. It’s the top grossing film domestically in the franchise and currently third for worldwide gross, behind 2010’s Resident Evil: Afterlife and 2016’s Resident Evil: The Final Chapter.

Heart of the Beast held on to third place with $11 million bringing its gross to $38.4 million. Over the week, it over doubled its international gross adding $30.2 million to that total to bring it to $60.3 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $98.7 million.

Primetime remained in fourth place with a little over $8 million to bring it to $34.1 million domestically. Internationally, the movie has grossed $53,653. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $34.1 million worldwide.

Digger rounded out the top five with a disappointing $8 million domestically and $12 million internationally for a worldwide total of $20 million. Originally greenlit with a budget of $125 million, the budget climbed to $160 to $180 million. With a reported $100 million marketing budget, the movie would need over $300 million worldwide to be profitable. That’s highly unlikely at this point and a flop for Warner Bros. before its acquisition by Paramount Skydance.
