Currently, The Conjuring 4 is the #330 highest-grossing film ever at the domestic box office. To enter the top 300 highest-grossers list in North America, Mel Gibson’s What Women Want’s $182.8 million domestic cume will have to be knocked down. Last Rites is less than $8 million away from beating What Women Want’s domestic haul and achieving this remarkable feat, but can it make it?
