[James Gunn @JamesGunn]

[Sam Bussell @BussellSamuel]

This looks INSANE!!! Been looking forward to this one and the trailer does not disappoint!! #Onslaught

[A24 @A24]

They made a new kind of weapon. And they’re testing it on us.

Buckle up for Adam Wingard’s super soldier slasher ONSLAUGHT, starring Adria Arjona, Alex Pereira, Dan Stevens, and more. In theaters Sept 4.

No surprise after watching the finale. #Euphoria had its moment and now it’s time to move on. HBO will and does have plenty of other hits that can replace it going forward.

This is truly an unprecedented weekend at the Box Office! Who would have thought a year ago that two low budget horror films would DOMINATE the movie space right now. The future has arrived and I’m very curious to see how the town responds to this new wave. #Backrooms #Obsession

[Erik Davis @ErikDavis]

BOX OFFICE: #Backrooms opens #1 with $81.4M (dom), $118M (global). #Obsession is #2 w/ $26.4M. Some stats:

- It’s the biggest opening weekend in @a24 history.
- The biggest opening ever for an original horror property.
- Kane Parsons becomes the youngest director ever with a #1 movie.
- He also has the biggest opening ever for a director under 21.
- It’s the 4th biggest horror opening weekend ever domestically (5th biggest worldwide).

Meanwhile…

- #Obsession crosses $100M and is now Focus Features’ highest grossing film ever, domestically.
- Its 3rd weekend is up +10%, which is unheard of for a wide release.
- For the first time, Blumhouse-Atomic Monster have both #1 and #2 movies at the box office.
- Also an incredibly rare moment for two original horror movies to top the box office. Not sure when that has happened previously.

The duo I’ve always wanted to see onscreen in the MCU😍😍

[Empire @empiremagazine]

EXCLUSIVE 💀

The Punisher in Spider-Man: Brand New Day will still be “authentic to the Frank Castle we know” without an R-rating, says Tom Holland.

“There are fun ways to get around the fact that he swears and kills people,” he tells Empire.

Clearly showcasing to people this time around that YES this is more than just a gritty crime show. This is my most anticipated DCU project this year and both trailers have proved my point as to why that's the case. Bring on August!!! #Lanterns

[James Gunn @JamesGunn]

Are you afraid?  
#Lanterns premieres August 16 on @hbomax.

[Sam Bussell @BussellSamuel]

#TheMandalorianandGrogu delivers on bringing A Galaxy Far Far Away back to the big screen! While not a home run, Jon Favreau understands the assignment and manages to deliver big Star Wars spectacle for the whole family to enjoy. The sequences filmed for @IMAX were incredible!
