‘Regretting You’ and ‘Black Phone 2’ neck-in-neck on slow Halloween box office weekend

Box Office Weekend: 'Regretting You' and 'Black Phone 2' Lead

The movie exhibition business is experiencing one of its slowest Octobers in over 25 years, with a sluggish Halloween weekend.

Studios avoided opening major new films due to the holiday falling on a Friday, instead opting for re-releases like "Back to the Future" and "KPop Demon Hunters."

Despite no films earning more than $10 million, 'Regretting You' and 'Black Phone 2' are neck-in-neck for the top spot.

No major new films were opened due to Halloween.

According to Paul Dergarabedian, the slow weekend is a notable end to October.
