Dispite bad reviews the movie is making $:
The box office good times continued for Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey's "Party Monster" as it opened in New York, L.A. and Chicago following its debut last weekend, capturing the top spot in the indieWIRE: BOT for the second week. New Yorker Films bowed "Taking Sides" and managed the second place on the chart, while Wellspring's "Carnage" opened in the third position as measured by per screen average. Miramax's "The Magdalene Sisters," meanwhile passed a box office threshold in its sixth weekend in theaters.
Strand Releasing's "Party Monster" remained number-one for a second weekend, keeping the box office high going on seven screens grossing $134,157 for a fabulous per screen average of $19,165. Since opening the previous weekend in San Francisco, "Party Monster" has cumed $161,190. Speaking with indieWIRE last weekend, Strand Releasing co-president Marcus Hu expressed his "thrill" at the film's opener in the Bay Area. He also said that he anticipated a "big opening" for the film in the three big U.S. cities, which most likely must have been great news for the Strand team who are here in Canada for the Toronto International Film Festival. The film took in $20,102 at the Castro Theatre in its debut last weekend.
