A24’s You Can See Everything Tops Halloween Weekend With $10.6 Million

A24’s documentary You Can See Everything finished first at the U.S. and Canada box office for the weekend of Oct. 30 to Nov. 1, 2026. Studio estimates put its take at about $10.6 million in its third weekend, according to Box Office Mojo and The Numbers.

Warner Bros.’ Clayface was second at an estimated $10.4 million, about $200,000 behind. NBC News reported that the frame, which fell on Halloween Saturday, was expected to be the year’s second-lowest-earning weekend. The figures are estimates, and final numbers were due Monday, Nov. 2.

A narrow win in a slow frame

The Numbers lists You Can See Everything at $10,600,684 from 3,243 theaters, bringing its domestic total to $63,882,597. NBC News cited a count of 2,655 theaters for the weekend; Box Office Mojo and The Numbers show 3,243. Rotten Tomatoes said the film added 588 theaters and now plays in more than 3,000.

Clayface fell 57% in its second weekend. NBC News put the gap between the two films at $200,684. The Numbers shows Clayface in 3,478 theaters with $44,064,000 after 10 days.

Wildwood, the Laika film distributed by Fathom Entertainment, was third at an estimated $7.5 million, down 39%, for $25.9 million in total. Box Office Mojo lists Wildwood’s actual weekend gross at $2.4 million, 67.9% below its estimate. Wicker took about $4.1 million in its second weekend, according to Rotten Tomatoes, and Paramount’s Street Fighter earned about $3.2 million in its third weekend, according to NBC News. Rotten Tomatoes put Street Fighter’s total at $53 million after 17 days.

The Numbers’ chart counts 33 reporting films with a combined weekend gross of $55,969,119. Rotten Tomatoes said it may have been the lowest weekend since Jan. 23-25. NBC News said the Halloween holiday drew audiences away from theaters on Saturday.

Budget vs. gross
NBC News reported a $7 million budget for You Can See Everything against a $63.9 million domestic total. It reported $44 million for Clayface against $44.1 million.

Budget against gross

The Numbers lists a production budget of $7 million for You Can See Everything. The film opened Oct. 16 in 855 theaters with $15,601,418, which is 24.4% of its domestic total, and reached a peak of 3,243 theaters.

NBC News reported the $63.9 million total against the $7 million budget. The Numbers puts worldwide box office at 9.1 times its budget. The film runs 174 minutes and is rated R. It was directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, features Elizabeth Holmes, and is listed under the Telluride Film Festival 2026.

Clayface carries a reported $44 million budget, according to NBC News, and its domestic total of $44.1 million has just reached that figure. Rotten Tomatoes reported $83 million worldwide and projected a domestic finish of $60 million to $70 million. That is the outlet’s projection, not a studio figure. The outlet also said the film’s small budget could allow a minor profit.

A rare documentary at No. 1

Rotten Tomatoes reported that the film is the first non-concert documentary to top the weekend chart since Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11 opened in June 2004. The outlet also said it is only the fourth documentary to play in more than 3,000 theaters. The other three involved Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift twice.

Rotten Tomatoes put the total at $63.8 million after 17 days, the seventh-highest for a documentary. It still trails Fahrenheit 9/11 and March of the Penguins on the non-music list.

The outlet also looked at whether the film could reach $100 million. It said Argo, The Ring and Captain Phillips are the only October releases with $60 million to $70 million after 17 days and a third weekend above $10 million that went on to $100 million. The Social Network missed at $96.9 million.

The chart also carried event programming. A BTS live viewing from São Paulo, distributed by Trafalgar Releasing, placed sixth at an estimated $2.8 million, per Box Office Mojo. Netflix reported grosses for The Mosquito Bowl, which took $455,000 from 349 locations, and La Bola Negra, which took $418,000 from 38 locations, NBC News said.

A24’s documentary finished first for the weekend, about $200,000 ahead of Warner Bros.’ Clayface.

What it means for the holiday slate

Studio estimates suggest the weekend total is unlikely to surpass $56 million. Even so, NBC News reported that domestic box office is up more than 17% on last year, at nearly $8.5 billion year to date.

Rotten Tomatoes described the coming weekend as the start of the holiday season. Its list of openers includes the animated The Cat in the Hat, with Bill Hader voicing the title character, and Godzilla Minus Zero.

Others are Martin McDonagh’s Wild Horse Nine, with John Malkovich and Sam Rockwell, and Sony’s Ramayana: Rise of a Legend. Angel Studios’ Drummer Boy, Fathom’s Jimmy and the limited A24 release Club Kid are also due. The outlet said The Cat in the Hat may end Warner Bros.’ drought of $100 million films.

Rotten Tomatoes said Thanksgiving does not arrive until Wildwood’s sixth weekend, and scores of other releases, including The Cat in the Hat, may lead audiences to move on by then. Final domestic figures are due Monday, and the figures here are estimates as of Nov. 2.
