The horror film topped "John Wick" film starring Keanu Reeves last weekend at U.S. box office, as per Daily Mail. "John Wick" follows the life of an ex-hitman as he comes out of retirement to trace the gangsters that took everything from him. The action thriller film has grossed $14,150,000 in the United States since its release, claiming the second spot.
Meanwhile, the American war film "Fury" starring Brad Pitt goes to the third place, grossing an estimate of $13 million. It is set during World War II in April 1945, the last month of war in Europe and in a time when the Allies proceed to their final push into Nazi Germany.
Film began in mid-December 2013 in Los Angeles. The film is piloted by tiles White and co-written by White and Juliet Snowden. Jason Blum, Michael Bay, Andrew Form, Bradley Fuller, and Bennett Schneir are the movie producers, with David Emmerichs in cinematography.
Movie co-producer Bennet Schneir gave information about the Ouija board as revealed in Bloomberg. There are certain rules to follow when using the ouija boards, also known as spirit boards or talking boards. They should not be used when "alone or in graveyards and always saying goodbye."
President for domestic distribution at Universal Pictures Nikki Rocco spoke her thoughts in a statement in Reuters. The movie budget was $5 million. "The results speak for themselves," she said.
