"It" Passes "The Exorcist" For Highest Grossing Horror Movie

It will pass The Exorcist this week to become the highest-grossing domestic horror film of all-time. Upon its initial release in 1973, The Exorcist grossed $193 million, followed by an additional $39.9 million from two director’s cut releases in 2000 and 2010, for a total of $232.9 million. It currently has $228.4 million after adding $4.2 million on Monday and $5.3 million on Tuesday. The movie should easily pass The Exorcist record this week — as early as last night. It's the highest grossing R-rated film of 2017 so far. While Kingsman: The Golden Circle is expected to win this weekend box office, but It is still expected to make roughly $30 million, putting it around $265-270 million by Sunday. Other films It is expected to pass include Gravity, the highest grossing October release with $274 million.
