Re: Six Days in August D.O.A.?
It appears that the film is now showing in two theaters:
Kaysville Theater (Kaysville, Utah)
The Reel Theatre (Pocatello, Idaho)
It’s been a disappointing performance at the box office. I think it’s fair to say that this “important and remarkable movie project” failed to “change minds and touch the hearts of ... many people.”
Meanwhile, another Latter-day Saint-oriented flick, Heretic, is doing fairly well, having grossed nearly $30 million thus far against a reported budget of $10 million.

I remember in the 1980's when the Kaysville Theater played its first rated R film, Rambo. There were pickets, protests and petitions to protect Kaysville from the horrors that rated R movies would bring. Evidently, rated R films were going to be a gateway to smoking crack and homelessness.Tom wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2024 12:26 amIt appears that the film is now showing in two theaters:

But I digress, Six Days was a horrible film and paraphrasing the Afore, ridiculous films deserve to be ridiculed.

Has it finally died ended its box office run? No reported figures since Tuesday.

The two podunk theaters it’s still playing in probably don’t have internet and have to communicate box office receipts by pony express.I Have Questions wrote: ↑Sat Nov 23, 2024 8:16 amHas it finally died ended its box office run? No reported figures since Tuesday.

Six Days’s final days:
https://www.thekaysvilletheatre.com/ (theater is closed Sunday)
https://www.reeltheatre.com/showtimes-pocatello
I provide this information as a public service. You won’t find it on the film’s moribund website.

And another loss for God’s one true football teamdrumdude wrote: ↑Sun Nov 17, 2024 6:34 amWhat a wonderful cherry on top. Dan has been noting that the low turnout for his film must be due to BYU’s stellar football season. They have been undefeated, you know. Because they’re God’s team. So the low turnout is because God has other priorities.
Until now. Losing to a 6 loss team.
Mormon God sure has a fun sense of humor.

6DIA did $6 on Sunday. Across 2 locations. Are tickets cheaper on Sunday or did the one person that bought a ticket that day demand a partial refund after watching the film?

LOL. Tickets at the Pocatello theater are $3 after 4:30 pm. The film closes tomorrow at that location. The Kaysville theater is not open on Sundays.I Have Questions wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2024 7:59 am6DIA did $6 on Sunday. Across 2 locations.

Re: Six Days in August D.O.A.?
What's the next theatrical film for our denizen of Utah County?
6 rolls in the hay and what the overbearing wife saw - the Fanny Alger Story.
I got my revenge - Brigham Young and Sept 11, 1857.
I just can't help myself - Lorenzo Snow and His Young Brides.
We need more and more - The Ensign Peak Tales.
Who said TK Smoothie is a crutch - A Kolob Midnight Adventure.
