20th Century Studios faced a setback as Psycho Killer failed to draw crowds, but the studio’s January horror thriller Send Help continues to hold firm in North America more than a month after release. Directed by Sam Raimi, the film is now closing in on its break-even target while playing in 2,500 theaters across the region.
Send Help Box Office Performance So Far
According to Box Office Mojo, Send Help has collected $87.4 million worldwide against a $40 million budget. Domestic earnings form the bulk of that total, contributing 68.5% with $59.9 million. International markets have added $27.5 million.

Send Help Maintains Top 10 Spot Despite Scream 7 Release
Even during the latest weekend, when Scream 7 posted a record-breaking opening, Send Help held firm. Earnings dipped only 35.3%, bringing in $2.8 million despite losing 300 theaters last Friday. The per-screen average stood at $1,138, a sign that demand remains active. The film continues to rank among the top 10 performing titles in North America.
Break-Even Target At The Box Office & Final Domestic Projection
Reaching break-even will require around $100 million globally, a figure that now appears achievable. With its present earning rate, Send Help is projected to close its domestic theatrical run between $65 million and $70 million, positioning it as a profitable play for 20th Century Studios.
