Description

Five Nights at Freddys Two is defying critics, shattering box office records with over $110 million in its opening weekend, despite being panned as one of the worst films of the year. The horror sequel has broken several records, including the biggest December horror opening and the largest post-Thanksgiving theatrical release. Despite average scores on Rotten Tomatoes hovering between 12-15%, audiences are flocking to see it, drawn by the popular video game series dedicated fan base. The first film also saw success, and actor Matthew Lillard hints at a third installment, suggesting this unexpected success story could continue.
