The post-apocalyptic horror franchise A quiet place continues to prove its stamina with the latest edition, A quiet place: day oneand brought in solid numbers at the box office. The film, which serves as a prequel to the original 2018 hit, has managed to achieve success of its own, even if it faces the daunting task of living up to its predecessors. On the weekend of Friday, August 9, to Sunday, August 11, A quiet place: day onegrossed an estimated $475,000 from 468 locations across the United States, bringing the domestic total to an impressive $138.5 million and demonstrating how popular the film is with audiences who continue to flock to theaters despite the film’s availability on VOD.

International, A quiet place: day one earned $255,000 in 46 markets in its seventh weekend, bringing its foreign total to $122.2 million. While these numbers are respectable, they show that Day one lags behind the previous entries in the franchise.

Is “Day One” worth watching?

In her review for Collider Emma Kiely praised the film for its fresh approach to the franchise’s established premise.

“A Quiet Place: Day One has a lot more to say about humanity than the trailer suggests,” writes Kiely. “We’ve seen people fight for survival in every possible situation.
Day one
manages to stand out in both its subgenre and franchise by tackling man versus monster in a different way. It may not be the best horror film or action film, but its brilliant characterization, simple yet effective script, and outstanding performances make it a strong contender in the action/alien/survival subgenres.”
