Weekend Results: 20th to 23rd February 2014 - Mick Taylor brings on another Gorefest...

As expected, Wolf Creek 2 opened on top of the charts over the weekend, handily eclipsing the the first film by 37% on it's first full weekend with a total of 1.7m. The original film of course went onto make 6m.  Wolf Creek 2 does have a slightly advantage given that it's only MA15+ rated against the original films rating of R18+.  Right behind Wolf Creek 2, was american war film, Lone Survivor with 1.5m.  Last weekends leader The Wolf of Wall Street, fell to 3rd with a further 1.1m and a total of nearly 20m.  The wolf has had an amazing run and looks to finish in the mid 20m's at this point.  4th was Last Vegas down 46% with Robocop rounding out the top 5 now with with a running total of 5.8m.

As expected, most films took a dive after the bump that most films received from Valentines Day.  Of note, Gravity just doesn't seem to want to go away, with it re-entering the top 20 this week (it's 21st week in the chart) and now with a running total of 21.8m.  Lastly, Moshi Monsters The Movie, attempted to bring the world of moshi monsters to life but only succeeded in scaring audiences away instead. Moshi somehow scored 119 screens but barely managed to scrape into the top 20 with a woeful average of only 717.  Still it's not a complete wash given it only cost 1.5m pounds and no doubt will already have made it's money make in the UK.
