Evil Dead Burn Leads HBO Max Global Movie Charts

Evil Dead Burn has become HBO Max's top movie in the United States after its early October streaming debut, while David Fincher's crime thrillers Zodiac and Se7en are also climbing global charts on the platform across multiple countries.

According to FlixPatrol data cited by Polygon, Evil Dead Burn reached No. 1 on HBO Max's U.S. movie chart days after arriving on the service. The horror sequel is part of the long-running Evil Dead franchise and follows a family facing demonic threats.

The film stars Souheila Yacoub as Alice, a woman dealing with her husband's death who retreats to a secluded family home with her in-laws. Directed by Sébastien Vaniček, the movie also features Tandi Wright, Hunter Doohan and Luciane Buchanan.

Polygon reported that Evil Dead Burn received a 70% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes. The review noted that the film was praised for its inventive kills, camera work and sound design, while criticism focused on how it balanced horror, comedy and themes of grief.

Separately, David Fincher's films Zodiac and Se7en have gained renewed attention on HBO Max internationally. According to FlixPatrol data cited by ScreenRant, Zodiac was trending in 13 countries and ranked as high as third in 10 of those markets.

Se7en, the 1995 crime thriller starring Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman, was trending in 14 countries on HBO Max and reached No. 2 in 12 of them, according to the same data. The film follows detectives investigating a series of murders connected to the seven deadly sins.

Fincher's streaming momentum comes ahead of his next Netflix project, The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth. The film, written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Fincher, reunites the director with Pitt, who returns as Cliff Booth.

The upcoming movie is scheduled for a limited two-week theatrical run beginning November 25, before arriving on Netflix on December 23, according to ScreenRant.
