If your idea of a good time in horror involves psychotic would-be mother figures, demonic dolls, or drag queens, then June was your kind of month at the movies! A total of 9 horror flicks and 1 thriller lured North American movie-goers into theaters; almost half of the titles were released in June while the rest were carried over from May, April or March.
June also saw audiences bid farewell to two flicks, but was it in the form of a fond kiss or a swift kick?
Keep reading for a comprehensive list of the horror/thriller box office winners and losers of June, as well as the R.I.P. reveal of those films without any box office life left in them.
