No, you aren’t dreaming. That is the reboot of A Nightmare on Elm Street sitting atop the box office chart today with a ridiculous $15 million Friday night gross — a horror genre record $1.6 million of which came from midnight screenings on Thursday. For reference, that’s more than the rest of the top-ten grossed combined . However if you think Elm Street proves audiences will literally see anything with a suffocating marketing campaign, there’s Furry Vengeance . The Brendan Fraser disaster opened with a Monkeybone -like $2 million on Friday to land in fifth. At least some people still have standards. The top-five ahead.
