    John Dies At The End. Weird, sci-fi horror comedy that nobody saw

    Budget <$1 million, box office $141,951

    The story was originally written as a serial and released on a web site for free before getting sold as a book, the movie cuts out big sections that makes some scenes meaningless or contradicting earlier scenes. I think it’s pretty fun to watch and it has a low budget sci-fi charm, but I get why it didn’t do well. Given another screenwriter/director I think it could be retried.
