Will Scary Movie 6, opening this weekend, top $50 million at the domestic box office?
54% of users predicted NO — the community missed this one. 28 predictions cast.
Scary Movie 6 opened to $55 million domestically in its debut weekend of June 5-7, 2026, surpassing the $50 million threshold and setting a franchise record for opening weekend in the United States. The film's global three-day total reached $105 million, adding roughly $50 million from international markets. The previous franchise high was $49.7 million, set by Scary Movie 4 in 2006.
Produced on a reported budget of approximately $30 million, the film delivered an outsized return in its opening frame. It topped the domestic chart by a wide margin, outperforming Masters of the Universe — which opened the same weekend to $29.3 million — and benefiting from strong general-audience appeal while its rival drew an older, nostalgia-driven crowd.
The horror-parody genre retained a broad following two decades after the franchise's peak, helping Scary Movie 6 exceed analyst expectations. A majority of the community (54 percent) had predicted the film would fall short of $50 million; the actual result proved that assessment wrong.
