Late August to mid September are typically slow, and The Possession did about a good as could be expected. I can't help but think if Lawless had someone else as the kid brother besides Shia LaBeouf, it would have opened better.
As far as political documentaries go, 2016 has passed Capitalism: A Love Story and is on pace to pass Bowling for Columbine. If it can catch Sicko's $24.5 million, it'll be the second highest grossing political doc of all time.
The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure also opened, and it now has the dubious distinction of being the worst opening in history of any movie over 1000 screens. It debuted at #26, averaging $207 per screen on 2160 for a total of $448,000.
