IT FOLLOWS
After a seemingly innocent sexual encounter, 19-year-old Jay (Maika Monroe) suddenly finds herself plagued by nightmarish visions; she can’t shake the sensation that someone, or something, is following her. As the threat closes in, Jay and her friends must somehow escape the horrors that are only a few steps behind.

EX_MACHINA

Caleb (Domhnall Gleeson), a programmer, is sent to a remote facility when he’s given the job of evaluating his company CEO Nathan’s (Oscar Isaac) experiment in artificial intelligence – a robot named Ava (Alicia Vikander).

What was supposed to be a routine check turns into much more when Caleb forms a friendship with Ava, who raises doubts as to whether anything Nathan says can be trusted. For his part, Nathan questions Ava‘s motives, and Caleb begins to wonder if he’s doing the testing or if he’s being tested himself.

Despite mixed Reviews from Critics, 20th Century Fox‘s HOME hits a home run with Audiences garnering not only an A CinemaScore, but also the top of the Box Office this weekend with a strong $52.7 million from 3,708 theatres.  On the Tomatometer at Rotten Tomatoes, the Animated Feature which showcases the voicework of Rihanna and Jennifer Lopez,  tallied-in at 48%.

Debuting in second with $33 million from, 3,175 theatres was Warner Bros.‘ raunchy Comedy GET HARD starring Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart.  Critics didn’t think much of it with a 32% on the Tomatometer, but Audiences thought much more highly of it with a B CinemaScore.

INSURGENT continues to perform well in third in its second week out with $23.9 million this weekend. It was last week’s Box Office Champ.  Thus far, the Action/Fantasy and second Film in The Divergent Series, has grossed $88.1 million domestically for eOne Films/Lionsgate Films.

CINDERELLA in its third week out earns $17.3 million for Disney, thus far earning $150 million in its North American run.

IT FOLLOWS expands to 1,218 theatres this weekend, good enough for fifth with $3.7 million for RADiUS (The Weinstein Co.)/Mongrel Media. In three weeks it has made $4.2 million.
