Summer is rapidly winding down. There are three wide releases coming out next week, none of them are expected to be midlevel hits. The only one that even has a shot at $50 million is Sinister 2. Horror films tend to do well in late summer, or at least they tend to perform better than most other genre. Because of this, Sinister 2 is the only real choice for the target film for this week's Box Office Prediction contest. In order to win, one must simply predict the opening weekend box office number for Sinister 2.
Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going over, will win a Frankenprize, comprised of Little Loopers on DVD and one previously reviewed DVD / Blu-ray.
Whoever comes the closest to predicting the film's opening 3-day weekend box office (Friday to Sunday), without going under, will win a second Frankenprize, comprised of The Last Days of the Nazis on DVD and one previously reviewed DVD / Blu-ray.
Finally, we will be choosing an entrant from the group of people who haven't won, or haven't won recently, and they will also win a third Frankenprize, comprised of It Happened Here on DVD and one previously reviewed DVD / Blu-ray.
Entries must be received by 10 a.m., Pacific Time on Friday to be eligible, so don't delay!

There were five contenders for Pick of the Week, three of which were in the TV on DVD category. This includes the eventual winner, Orphan Black: Season Three.
