Send Help has scared up a major box office milestone.
The new horror film starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien follows two colleagues who are shipwrecked on a desert island. It’s directed by Sam Raimi, known for The Evil Dead, and has been well-received by critics, earning a 93% ‘Certified Fresh’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The movie is also doing well in theaters, having been the top-grossing film domestically for two weeks in a row.
According to Variety, the movie Send Help is expected to reach a total of $53.7 million worldwide by the end of its second weekend in theaters. Of that amount, approximately $35.8 million has been earned in the U.S. and Canada, with another $17.9 million coming from international showings.
If current projections hold, Send Help (2026) will be just the second horror film directed by Sam Raimi to earn over $50 million worldwide. The first was 2009’s Drag Me to Hell, which eventually made $91.4 million globally. Here’s a look at how all of Raimi’s horror movies have performed at the box office:
| Title | Worldwide Box Office |

| The Evil Dead (1981) | $29.4 million |
| Evil Dead II (1987) | $5.9 million |
