Scary Movie opened to $55 million in its debut weekend, the biggest opening in the parody franchise's history. Competing newcomer Masters of the Universe earned about $29.3 million, while A24's Backrooms and Focus's Obsession each passed $200 million worldwide. Super Mario reached $1 billion globally this weekend, reinforcing its role as the summer's dominant family tentpole. The strong Scary Movie start signals studios that mainstream audiences still reward broad horror parody and raises the odds of another sequel.
