After last weekend’s Straight Outta Compton versus War Room battle, the box office is now looking a bit more seasonal.

The Visit opened to great box office numbers in its early debut. The movie was labeled as another potential dud for writer-director M. Night Shyamalan, but grabbed the attention of enough horror fans to settle into second place, upon early calculations. After a series of critical and fan disasters, Shyamalan decided to fund The Visit […]

In an interview with […]

M. Night Shyamalan must now deal with an aide who stole $15,000 from him.
