The eighth film of the Resident Evil series, one of the eagerly anticipated productions of the arts and culture world and adapted from the popular 90s zombie video game, attracted great interest on its opening weekend in Turkey and settled at the top of the box office.

The summit at the Turkish box office changed

Resident Evil, the eighth film in the series, managed to be watched by a total of 57,528 viewers on its opening weekend in Turkey.

With this result, the film ended the seven-week leadership streak of the production Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which had been in first place at the box office for a long time.

It broke records in the US

Achieving a box office gross of 60 million dollars on its opening weekend in the US, the production performed well above the expectations of 40-50 million dollars.

This figure enabled the 24-year-old horror franchise to break its record for the highest opening box office to date.

Past records left behind

Previously, the 2010 film Resident Evil: Afterlife, starring Milla Jovovich, had achieved the highest domestic opening of the series with a gross of 26 million dollars.
