‘Black Adam’ remains on top of a declining Spanish box office

The Spanish box office drops to € 4.1 million over the Halloween weekend, according to data from Comscore. Theaters lost 160,000 spectators compared to the previous weekend, and that three previews managed to sneak into the top three.

However, “Black Adam” keeps number one and does it without any problems. It loses 45% compared to the weekend of its premiere, but still adds € 1.19 million to a total of almost € 4 million, remaining very close to the total of “Elvis”. His first rival to beat when it comes to superheroes would be “Morbius,” who earned € 4.72 million, so it’s a no-brainer for Dwayne Johnson. Will you be able to reach € 10.79 million for ‘The Batman’? Without such powerful rivals, it reached an average of € 3,136 per cinema and nearly 600,000 spectators have already gone to see it.

Álex de la Iglesia conducts the strongest premiere of the week. ‘The fourth passenger’ debuts in second position with 643,500 euros and an average of € 1,808 per cinema. Therefore, it gets a premiere similar to that of “Halloween: The End” a few weeks ago.

In third position, “The Crooked Lines of God” continues to hold up wonderfully, which gets 427,960 euros more in its fourth week. It only falls by 27%. Its total is already 4 million euros. Only two Spanish films have grossed more than her this year (“Tadeo Jones 3” and “Padre no hay más que uno 3”), but they are still far behind.

‘Smile’ celebrates Halloween in style with a minimum decrease of 10% compared to the previous weekend. It occupies the fourth position and sums 416,037 euros for a total of 4.8 million euros.

“Lilo, my crocodile friend” drops 43% in its second weeka little stronger than other family films, but its € 345,500 this weekend goes to over € 1 million in total.

Previews don’t break the barriers

The previews of the week of the majors failed to catch on. “Amsterdam”, distributed by Disney, is in seventh place with € 200,303 and an average of € 655 per cinema. She had a cast full of well-known faces, but criticism didn’t accompany her and she already came from a weak figure in the United States. Worse went to “Bros – More Than Friends”, the first romantic comedy starring a gay man in charge of a major Hollywood studio like Universal Pictures. Played by Billy Eichner, it debuted in Spain at number 15 with € 35,025 at the box office and only € 180 per theater. Although he wanted to open these kinds of stories to the general public, he failed to break down the barriers he aspired to. Maybe it will have a second life like many romantic comedies when it comes to streaming. The other premiere that sneaks into the top 20 is the lively ‘Hopper, el polloliebre’, which occupies the eighth position with 161,677 euros.

“Black Adam” will continue for another week with no competition. The first major of the week is Félix Viscarret’s “Don’t Look Into The Eyes”, with Paco León leading the cast.. José Sacristán becomes a priest in the terrifying “13 exorcisms”. ‘Corten!’, ‘Forging a Champion’ and ‘Vasil’ are other previews this week.
