Yesterday we introduced you to lists of highest-grossing films of the year in General, but today let’s examine the data on collections of a genre film.
Although, when it comes to genres, there’s always something to argue about. Especially if you are dealing with Hollywood blockbusters that usually are created according to certain patterns and use elements of different genres, including horror, and Comedy. Can you relate to the horror blockbuster movie “Kong: skull Island”? Or “the Dark tower”?.. A big question, but we felt that to a certain extent, with some reservations, is still possible. Yes, it’s a mixture of genres, but who would be “skull Island” was interesting without giant monsters?.. Whoever heard of “the Dark tower”, not whether it’s a movie based on the books by Stephen king?..
This year in the U.S. many have called “year of horror” – not implying (well, almost no meaning) with some political connotations. FIVE genre films and okolosustaveh were able to collect in 2017, more than a hundred million dollars in overseas box office – the result is really outstanding. And “It” and does have updated a number of cash records – not only for horror, but in General.

Among the highest-grossing genre and okolosustaveh tapes Russian hire there was a place and Patriotic project “Gogol. The beginning”.

There were, however, successes, and absolute horror films – “Bride” became the highest grossing Russian horror in history, with around 180 million rubles. However, it was not enough to get in the top grossing premieres.
