The breakdown of the top five titles are as follows:
Part of what makes fans so looking forward to the new Salem's Lot, other than it being a new adaptation of the beloved Stephen King novel, is due in part to how little we know about it. Despite the movie initially being slated to hit theaters earlier this year, that release date was shifted into next year and currently doesn't have a theatrical release date. Additionally, despite the project having wrapped production long ago, audiences have yet to get an official look at the project in either photos or teasers.
The new Insidious marks the first entry into the series since 2018's Insidious: The Last Key, but this new installment sees the return of Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne as their characters from the first two films, catching audiences up with the Lambert family in the years since their unsettling experiences. Wilson is also stepping behind the camera to helm the project.
The original The Exorcist is considered by many to be one of the most horrifying films of all time, though subsequent installments have failed to capture the same attention as the debut installment. With this upcoming taking on the material coming from David Gordon Green and taking the same approach to his revival of Halloween, by making the new film a direct continuation of the source material, audiences are both excited and intrigued by how he'll handle another beloved property.
