We start with director Emma Tammi’s Five Nights at Freddy’s, which will be making the transition from theatrical venues to the physical media marketplace on Dec. 12 with a full-spread of consumer buying options.
The ARR is an ultra-swift 46 days. Box office receipts currently stand at $132.7 million.
This is a record … no film released since the launch of the DVD format in 1997 — that has grossed in excess of $100 million at the box office — has made the move from your local multiplex to the home entertainment arena in just 46 days.
The previous record was 60 days, held by both A Quiet Place, Part II and Free Guy (both in 2021).
Planned for release on Dec. 12 are Combo Pack editions for both the 4K Ultra HD (with Blu-ray) and Blu-ray (with DVD) formats, plus a stand-alone DVD purchasing option.
Arriving the following week, Dec. 19, is director David Gordon Green’s The Exorcist: The Believer. This too will be a full-spread physical media release package.
The ARR works out to 74 days … the domestic box office take was $65.5 million.
As with Five Nights at Freddy’s, the same release configurations will be in play for The Exorcist: The Believer.
Bonus features begin with commentary from director (co-writer) David Gordon Green, who is joined by his co-writer Peter Sattler, executive producer Ryan Turek and F/X whiz Christopher Nelson.
There are also a half-dozen production featurettes — “Making a Believer,” “Ellen and Linda: Reunited,” “Stages of Posession,” “The Opening,” “Editing an Exorcism” and “Matters of Faith.”
