2026 has been an interesting year for horror cinema. At one end, films like 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, which received widespread critical acclaim and were expected to do well at the box office, failed to deliver big numbers. On the other hand, multiple films like Iron Lung and Undertone, which were made on small budgets, went on to earn a staggering ROI.
With the exception of the slasher sequel Scream 7, no other horror film released in 2026 currently ranks among the top ten highest-grossing titles of the year, according to Box Office Mojo’s yearly chart. Now, all eyes will be on whether some of the eagerly anticipated movies like Insidious: Out of the Further, Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil, Clayface, and Evil Dead Burn will give a big boost to the box office performance of horror films.
Among the above-mentioned horror films, Evil Dead Burn is set to hit theaters at the earliest—on July 10, 2026, in the U.S. Let’s find out what the Sébastien Vaniček-directed feature would need to earn to become the highest-grossing horror film of 2026 at the global box office.
