Weekend Wrap-Up: Rental Extends its Lease on Top of the Box Office Chart
August 4, 2020
The Rental remained in top spot on the weekend box office chart, this time earning $290,000 in 242 theaters. This was down just 28% from its opening weekend and pushed its running tally to $890,000. It will join films like The Wretched and Relic in the $1 million club. That latter film just reached that milestone this past weekend.
Deadline’s reporting has The Goonies in second place with $208,000 in 156 theaters, putting it just ahead of Jurassic Park at $192,000. Jaws ($142,000) and Grease ($138,000) round out the top five.
As for new releases, there’s not much to talk about. Summerland made close to $29,000, but it was playing in nearly 100 theaters. Its theater average was lower than even Killer Raccoons 2: Dark Christmas in the Dark, which earned nearly $3,500 in four theaters.
