The latest Blumhouse film Five Night At Freddy’s has become the production outfit’s biggest-grossing movie. The film has just surpassed the film’s previous record holder, Split, which grossed $279 million. Five Nights At Freddy’s has scored a whopping $295 million from a reported mere $20 million budget.
When you think that Blumhouse has been behind some of the biggest genre films from the last decade or so, including Get Out, M3GAN and The Black Phone, this is a remarkable achievement.
Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio with Mary Stuart Masterson and Matthew Lillard lead the cast of the film, produced by Jason Blum and Scott Cawthon, and directed by Emma Tammi.
Recently fired and desperate for work so that he can keep custody of his little sister, Mike (Josh Hutcherson; The Hunger Games Franchise) agrees to take a position as a night security guard at an abandoned theme restaurant: Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria. But Mike soon discovers that nothing at Freddy’s is what it seems. Mike’s nights at Freddy’s will lead him into unexplainable encounters with the supernatural and drag him into the black heart of an unspeakable nightmare.
The news comes as the film is released on home premiere to rent or own for that slightly higher premium price.
