After outgrossing Keanu Reeves’ iconic sci-fi action blockbuster, The Matrix, the latest Conjuring installment now ranks among the top 300 highest-grossing films of all time. The Conjuring: Last Rites has also surpassed the $300 million mark internationally, and combined with its $172.4 million domestic haul, the horror movie has earned an impressive $473 million worldwide.
Among 2025 releases, Last Rites currently holds 11th place (per Box Office Mojo), trailing behind the Marvel superhero film The Fantastic Four: First Steps, which has earned $521.8 million globally.
So, entering the year’s top 10 seems unlikely even for this blockbuster horror title. After cracking the all-time top 300 list, the Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson-led film has also surpassed the well-received monster movie Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) at the global box office. Here’s how the two films stack up in worldwide earnings.

The Conjuring: Last Rites Is Inches Away From Becoming the 2nd-Highest-Grossing Horror Movie Ever
As of now, The Conjuring: Last Rites stands as the third-highest-grossing horror film ever (per The Numbers), trailing behind Andy Muschietti’s 2017 supernatural blockbuster, It ($702.8 million), and its 2019 sequel, It: Chapter Two ($473.1 million). To claim the second spot, Last Rites needs to earn just around $51K more. At its current pace, the film is expected to reach this milestone very soon.
What Is The Conjuring: Last Rites About?
