BOX OFFICE: DREDD 3D Ends Domestic Run With A Paltry $13.4 Million
After a disappointing $6.3 million opening at the North American box office back in September, DREDD 3D has finally ended it's theatrical run and the domestic total for the critically acclaimed reboot confirms that it had one of the worst wide releases of the year.
What a terrible shame. The superb DREDD 3D has finally concluded its run at the North American box office with a measly $13,414,714. According to Box Office Mojo, that means it had one of the worst wide releases of 2012. It failed to ever take off in the US, but had no problem taking the #1 spot in the UK. Internationally, the reboot made $10,100,000, giving DREDD a total of $23,514,714. With a budget of $45 million, you can now just about guarantee that a sequel will NEVER happen.

During a routine day on the job, Dredd is assigned to train and evaluate Cassandra Anderson, a rookie with powerful psychic abilities thanks to a genetic mutation. A heinous crime calls them to a neighborhood where fellow Judges rarely dare to venture- a 200 story vertical slum controlled by prostitute turned drug lord Ma-Ma and her ruthless clan. When they capture one of the clan's inner circle, Ma-Ma overtakes the compound's control center and wages a dirty, vicious war against the Judges that proves she will stop at nothing to protect her empire. With the body count climbing and no way out, Dredd and Anderson must confront the odds and engage in the relentless battle for their survival.
