Psycho Killer Box Office Bomb: 0% RT Score

Psycho Killer, a new horror flick from 20th Century Studios, has stumbled at the North American box office, failing to find an audience amidst existing genre competition. The film garnered a mere $710,000 from 1,100 theaters, resulting in a low per-screen average of $645. This performance is particularly concerning given its production budget was less than $10 million.

Adding to its woes, Psycho Killer has received overwhelmingly negative critical reception, holding a 0% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with an audience score of 33%. This critical drubbing often deters potential moviegoers. The film's narrative centers on a police officer, played by Georgina Campbell, hunting a serial killer known as 'the Satanic Slasher' after he murdered her husband.

This release comes during a mixed year for horror films in 2026, with some critically praised films also underperforming commercially. Psycho Killer's projected opening weekend of $2 million to $3 million raises doubts about its longevity in theaters.
