Reading the Globe this morning, I stumbled across a little bit about Zyzzyx Road. I'm still having difficulty believing what I've read.
Zyzzyx Road is a $2-million vigilante thriller starring Katherine Heigl and Tom Sizemore that grossed a grand total of $30 at the box office in 2006. It ran in one theatre in Dallas for six days.
I think I could release Christmas videos of my kids opening their presents as a documentary and score more than $30. If the tickets were only $6 it would take only five paying customers to hit the $30 mark. Dallas is a big enough city that there are at least six people who would go to everything or anything.
Zyzzyx Road is the lowest grossing movie in the modern record keeping era.
