 Film adaptations of games are often underestimated. But the presence of Five Nights at Freddy's managed to break the 'video game movie curse' with fantastic results.

Airing on Halloween, Five Nights at Freddy's has a fairly high audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Despite its great success, this film, written by Scott Cawthon, Seth Cuddeback and Emma Tammi, still received criticism from film critics.

"This film is fun to watch for game fans, but for those new to the story this is a little less scary," wrote user Paul McGuire Grimes, quoted by Rotten Tomatoes.

Even so, this film directed by director Emma Tammi managed to break records even when the film was broadcast on the Peacock streaming application.

Box Office With Extraordinary Achievements

As of November 6, the rating of this film has an Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes of 88%.
