The first film released by The Weinstein Company following reports of sexual harassment and rape allegations against founder Harvey Weinstein was a box office failure. “Amityville: The Awakening,” starring Bella Thorne, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Cameron Monaghan, grossed just $742 domestically after opening in 10 theaters Saturday, according to Box Office Mojo. The film, distributed by TWC’s Dimension Films, has gone through a rocky release outside of the Weinstein scandal. According to Variety, it was supposed to premiere multiple times since last year before the movie was made available for free on Google Play Oct. 12, with a one-day theatrical release on Oct. 28. The 2017 movie follows a teenage girl (Thorne) who moves into a new house with her family, and, yes, strange things begin to happen.
