‘Lisa Frankenstein’ fails to come to life at the box office
Fox News
It was a slow weekend at the box office as new releases competed with the Super Bowl. Lisa Frankenstein earned $3.8 million, according to studio estimates.
Focus Features released "Lisa Frankenstein" in 3,144 locations. A 1980s-set teenage riff on Mary Shelly’s classic tale, "Lisa Frankenstein" was the directorial debut of Robin Williams’ daughter Zelda Williams. Reviews overall were mixed to negative with a 49% on Rotten Tomatoes. AP’s Mark Kennedy wrote in his review that it was "a real monster — stitched together from previous movies, painfully incoherent and deeply, deeply dumb."
Audiences were mostly female (61%) and under the age of 35 (71%), according to exit data. But while the opening weekend was low, the production budget was also relatively modest at a reported $13 million.
