Oh, fuck.

Y'know...I knew that Saw VI hadn't opened well, but I held out some hope that surprisingly good reviews and word of mouth might extend its life over Halloween.

Nope.

After last weekend's disappointing opening, Saw VI dropped nearly a whopping 61% over the Halloween weekend box office, taking in a paltry estimated $5.56 million (per Box Office Mojo). The usually dependable horror franchise has yet to even surpass the miserable remake of The Stepfather in total box office. Could it be that audiences have finally tired of Jigsaw's games?

I'd imagine that a certain amount of finger-pointing has been going on this past week or so at the Lionsgate (they distribute the Saw films) offices...
