Morbius is back in cinemas, despite the fact that no one asked for it, and its unpopularity is just growing. After returning to over 1,000 cinemas on Friday, the picture only grossed $85,000, bringing its domestic total to $73.6 million (via Forbes).

Morbius was first published on April 1st, and it was met with mixed reviews. Our TV and film writer, Charles Pulliam-Moore, writes in the review of the picture that Morbius’ pace, narrative, and star actors’ performances feel “ill-conceived,” and that it “calls into question Sony’s grand project of building an entire cinematic universe on Spider-Man’s back.”

Sony most likely re-released the film in the hopes that increased interest in the “it’s morbin’ time” meme will spark a second wave of people interested in seeing the Spider-Man spinoff.
