THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE and GERALD'S GAME director Mike Flanagan's adaptation of DOCTOR SLEEP – Stephen King's sequel to THE SHINING –  hit theaters last weekend and snagged a surprisingly weak $14.1M. Super. Bummer. And today we have word that the film dropped a whopping 56% in its second weekend landing outside the top five with an estimated $6.1M. That brings its domestic total to just $25M after two weeks in release. Overseas, the movie scored $5.2M on 7,650 screens in 71 markets for a worldwide total of $28.8M.

Meanwhile, DOCTOR SLEEP is rated R for "disturbing and violent content, some bloody images, language, nudity and drug use", and runs 2 hours and 32 minutes. Did YOU go see DOCTOR SLEEP in theaters this weekend? What did you think? Let us know below!

It has the following synopsis: 

Still irrevocably scarred by the trauma he endured as a child at the Overlook, Dan Torrance has fought to find some semblance of peace. But that peace is shattered when he encounters Abra, a courageous teenager with her own powerful extrasensory gift, known as the “shine.” Instinctively recognizing that Dan shares her power, Abra has sought him out, desperate for his help against the merciless Rose the Hat and her followers, The True Knot, who feed off the shine of innocents in their quest for immortality.

Forming an unlikely alliance, Dan and Abra engage in a brutal life-or-death battle with Rose. Abra’s innocence and fearless embrace of her shine compel Dan to call upon his own powers as never before — at once facing his fears and reawakening the ghosts of the past.

The flick stars Ewan McGregor as Dan Torrance, Rebecca Ferguson as Rose the Hat, Kyleigh Curran as Abra Stone, and Carl Lumbly as Dick Halloran. Alex Essoe also stars with Bruce Greenwood, Zahn McClarnon, and Jocelin Donahue. DOCTOR SLEEP is NOW PLAYING.

GO. SEE. DOCTOR. SLEEP!
