Analysts are now predicting that the sci-fi horror film I Am Legend, starring Will Smith, will go over the $400 Million mark of box office dollars internationally. Last weekend was the fifth consecutive weekend in a row that I Am Legend has been at the top of the international box office, a feat that has not been pulled off since the animated Ratatouille.

I Am Legend dominated the Mexican box office with its launch there and also became the third highest grossing film debut ever for Warner Brothers in Brazil.

Other horror films vying for box office and producing results right now include Sweeney Todd, which has gained considerable ground after being nominated for Golden Globes and Alien Vs Predator: Requiem was tops at the British box office and came in second in Russia. Anyone who was not a fan of the Alien Vs Predator film will grimace to learn that it has done around $70 million already internationally and at this rate is fully expected to surpass the $91 million mark made by  the first Alien vs. Predator film. Also, the new film Cloverfield was released in a limited amount of theatres internationally with a solid start of $4.3 Million. Considering the success it had in wide release in the USA alone, the international sales figure for Cloverfield are expected to jump substantially in the near future.
