Smile 2 - starring Naomi Scott, Lukas Gage and Jack Nicholson's son Ray - emerged as the winner <br>
<br>
after a horror movie box office showdown.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>The fright flick eclipsed hot contender Terrifier 3 <br>
<br>
for the top spot.</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Smile sequel starring Scott, 31, as a pop star who begins experiencing terrifying and inexplicable <br>
<br>
events as she prepares for a world tour, opened wide <br>
<br>
in more than 3,600 theaters, pulling in a payday of $23 million.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Ray, whose mom is Nicholson's former partner Rebecca Broussard, shocked fans with an eerie grin in the new <br>
<br>
movie, which was near-identical to the Oscar-winner's maniacal smile as <br>
<br>
Jack Torrance in the 1980 Stanley Kubrick classic, The <br>
<br>
Shining.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In a legendary scene, an insane Jack hacks at a bathroom door with an axe as his cowering wife Wendy (Shelley <br>
<br>
Duvall) screams inside. As he busts a hole <br>
<br>
in the door, he sticks his face through, grins and exclaims:<br>
<br>
'Here's Johnny!' in an improvised line.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The original Smile, released in September 2022, and starring <br>
<br>
Sosie Bacon, was a sleeper hit, which was well received and earned $217,408,513 globally.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>

<br>
Smile 2 has received a 83-percent critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an 83-percent Popcornmeter rating from <br>
<br>
audiences. <br>
