Although critical reactions have been very mixed about the latest Halloween movie, it continues to do very well in cinemas and on NBC's Peacock streaming service. The film has already crossed the $100 million mark globally and it continues to drum up viewership via digital streaming. According to NBC/Universal, Halloween Kills was the biggest non-live premiere in the short history of the outlet. The film was produced on a small budget of only $20 million and is still racking up numbers at the box office and in homes via Peacock.
According to Samba TV (a digital tracking service) the film drummed up over 1.2 million viewers in its first weekend alone. However, the service only tracks data on certain Smart TV's. It's estimated that the numbers are actually much higher. As the Halloween weekend continues, the movie will definitely strike up extra revenue at theaters and on streaming. NBC and Peacock are obviously happy with the success of the movie so far.
The final movie in this trilogy, Halloween Ends is set to premiere in 2022. This will officially end the latest timeline in the Halloween saga.
