The lowest-grossing movie in 2012 brought in a measly $264

As "Skyfall" clears the $1 billion mark at the box office, it's time to ask what 2012's lowest-grossing movie was. No, it wasn't a mumblecore indie flick, it was "Playback," a horror film that starred the very recognizable — and once we would have said bankable — Christian Slater. Here's the math to make his agent weep: "Playback" cost an estimated $7.5 million to make and cleared $264 dollars after screening for one week at one theater. It's estimated 33 people saw the movie (and those people should seriously consider holding annual reunions because they are an elite bunch). Don't worry though; Slater will have a chance to redeem himself in upcoming movies "The Power of Few" and "The Nymphomaniac." [Source]
