©Sony Pictures/Courtesy Everett Collection The zombie virus is spreading to the box office as Sony’s “Resident Evil” reboot is taking over this weekend.
From “Weapons” director Zach Cregger, the new and original take on the horror video game series has made $8.8 million in previews at the box office. It’s aiming to make $40 million to $50 million domestically this weekend, but some projections put it closer to $60 million due to positive reviews. The movie cost $75 million to produce, so it’s on pace to become a back-to-back, box-office hit for Cregger after his horror movie “Weapons” ignited last year with $270 million globally after opening with $43 million. In comparison, “Weapons” started out with $5.7 million in previews.
