Roadkilled
You wanna' know what the lowest-grossing film of the year was?
Zyzzyx Road cost approximately $2 million to make, but took just $30 at the box office.
$30.
Devin Faraci over at CHUD.com first spotted this box office disaster, so he gets the credit for tracking down the following information:
"It was in just one theater for just one week. The lucky theater in question was the Highland Village Park Theater in Dallas ,Texas. It opened on February 25th 2006, and closed six days later."
Directed by John Penney, the unpronounceable (oh, like you can hear that word in your head) film starred Katherine Heigl of Grey’s Anatomy fame, Tom Sizemore of, well, Tom Sizemore fame and Leo Grillo, of, well... nothing. Coincidentally, Zyzzyx Road was made by Leo Grillo Productions. Just try to figure the odds on that.
