“Lisa Frankenstein” didn’t come to life at the North American box office in its first weekend in theaters.The horror comedy written by Diablo Cody and starring Kathryn Newton and Cole Sprouse earned $3.8 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.It debuted in second place on a very slow Super Bowl weekend, behind the spy thriller “Argylle.”Matthew Vaugn’s “Argylle” got first place with only $6.5 million, which brings its running domestic total to $28.8 million in two weekends. The $200 million production is Apple’s first major theatrical flop.Universal Pictures oversaw the North American release for the streamer, where it is playing in 3,605 locations.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter Matthew Vaughn’s spy thriller “Argylle” emerged victorious over newcomer “Lisa Frankenstein” in a moribund box office with both films struggling to show signs of life. “Argylle” claimed the No. 1 spot again with $6.5 million from 3,605 North American venues, marking a steep 62% decline from its disappointing debut.

Marc Malkin Senior Editor, Culture and Events SPOILER ALERT: This story contains mild spoilers for “Lisa Frankenstein,” in theaters now. Zelda Williams has no problem admitting that her feature directorial debut “Lisa Frankenstein” isn’t destined to be considered a cinematic masterpiece. “First and foremost, this movie ISN’T a groundbreaking spiritual journey that will change your worldly perceptions,” she wrote in a filmmaker’s statement, “but it IS a ride — so maybe just try to put your hands in the air and let the coaster take you!” And that it is — a rollercoaster homage to 1980s slasher films.

Super Bowl weekend, despite its damper on Sunday business, was frame that could still yield results, even for films aimed at dudes, i.e. 2015 when the 6th weekend of American Sniper drummed up $30.7M, or 2020 when the third weekend of Bad Boys for Life did $17.6M.

Nobody will leave writer Diablo Cody’s new horror-comedy “Lisa Frankenstein” shouting “it’s alive!” “It’s amusing,” maybe.The “Juno” scribe’s wacky contribution to the litany of riffs on Mary Shelley’s novel — from Boris Karloff to “Young Frankenstein” and “Frankenweenie” — makes the gothic tale into an 1980s teen sex comedy.Running time: 101 minutes. Rated PG-13 (violent content, bloody images, sexual material, language, sexual assault, teen drinking and drug content). In theaters Feb.
