What’s It All About: Animated feature based on director Shane Acker’s short film of the same name. In a post-apocalyptic future where humanity seemingly no longer exists, a group of rag doll-like creatures band together to survive the onslaught of machines intent on their destruction.
Why It Might Do Well: Based on the trailer this looks like an imaginative and beautifully designed film and it doesn’t hurt that one of the producers is Tim Burton. **
Why It Might Not Do Well: 59% at Rottentomatoes.com is a little discouraging.
Number of Theaters: 1,638
Prediction: $9 million

What’s It All About: A crazed killer is messily dispatching college students who were responsible for the death of a schoolmate.

Why It Might Not Do Well: **No star power and a story that looks even less original than most slasher films. **
Number of Theaters: 2,500
Prediction: **$8 million
