The sound of silence has never been louder as Paramount Pictures' surprise hit A Quiet Place climbed up to the No. 1 spot in Philippine box-office for its 2nd week of release, earning more than its opening weekend. This according to Columbia Pictures, the film's local distributor.
For the period April 18-22, the suspense thriller about a family trying to survive in a world with aliens that hunt based on sound, grossed a thunderous P79.5 million, almost doubling-up its opening weekend gross of P41.7 million. A rare feat that only happens because of fantastic world of mouth and repeat viewings.
Current total earnings for the Emily Blunt-John Krasinski team-up now total at a whopping P144.9 million, becoming the 9th biggest grossing horror film of all-time and 2nd biggest thriller in Paramount Pictures' history, after World War Z.
Columbia Pictures forecasts A Quiet Place to continue its phenomenal run this week as most screens are extending exhibition, despite new movies coming out.
In the U.S., A Quiet Place brought its domestic tally to $132 million; globally, it has racked up $206 million, with major markets China and Japan still to open.
In the modern horror thriller A Quiet Place, a family of four must navigate their lives in silence after mysterious creatures that hunt by sound threaten their survival. If they hear you, they hunt you.
