After an unexpected resurrection over Easter weekend with a jaw-dropping $48 million debut, Sinners promptly staked A Minecraft Movie, the reigning box office champ, right through its pixelated heart. Since then, the bloodbath has continued. The thriller raked in $23 million during weekdays alone, with a solid $7.8M on Monday, $8.6M Tuesday, and $7.1M Wednesday, bringing its domestic tally to a chilling $71.5 million.

Sinners next target, $100 million!

Sources told The Hollywood Reporter that Sinners is now charging straight toward the $100 million mark, a milestone that would not only cement its status as a pop culture phenomenon but also outgross horror legends like Hereditary, The Witch, and even Jordan Peele¡¯s Us.

But wait, the stakes are getting higher.

This weekend, Sinners will go fang-to-fist with Accountant 2, a gritty R-rated thriller starring Ben Affleck and backed by a 75% Rotten Tomatoes critics score. That is a 20% glow-up from the original Accountant, but insiders say Coogler and Jordan¡¯s atmospheric juggernaut has nothing to fear, except maybe how many repeat viewings fans will need to fully process the madness.

Critics are already calling Sinners a ¡°career high¡± for Coogler, with many praising the film¡¯s ability to go beyond typical horror tropes. Fans online are sharing reactions that range from ¡°absolutely traumatised (in a good way)¡± to ¡°I am never sleeping with the lights off again.¡±

The message is clear: Sinners is not just a box office win. It is a genre shift, a cultural quake, and a full-blown horror moment. And judging by the way ticket sales are still bleeding red, this vampiric victory is far from over.
