Passenger recovers budget in 4 days & moves towards the break-even target
According to reports, the horror thriller was made for $15 million. It has already recovered its budget in just four days. The movie received mixed reviews from the critics, but it recovered its budget. The break-even target is also not hard to achieve if it holds strong at the box office worldwide. However, Obsession is already there, stealing all its thunder.
Applying the industry’s 2.5x multiplier rule, the horror movie needs around $38 million to break even at the box office. It is below $50 million, which is not a hard target for a film, but it has to deliver a strong performance to stay in the game and meet its target. The film follows a young couple whose lives spiral into terror after they witness a gruesome highway accident and unknowingly bring home a demonic entity known as the Passenger. This relentless supernatural force will stop at nothing to claim them both. Passenger was released on May 22.
