THE UK TOP TEN

This week on the chart we see three new entries into the placings. To make way for these titles, we must say farewell to Smile 2, Alien: Romulus, and Despicable Me 4. But what are these titles and where have they entered? Let’s go sailing the high seas and find out together.

MOANA 2 MAKES A BIG SPLASH AT THE TOP OF THE CHARTS!

The sequel to 2016’s much-loved animated Disney film, Moana 2, sails straight in at the top on digital downloads only. 3 years after the events of the first film, Moana (Auliʻi Cravalho) receives an unexpected call from her ancestors, sending her on a journey to the far seas and into dangerous, long-lost waters on a whole new adventure.

FANCY A BITE WITH NOSFERATU? 

And that’s all there is for the top ten chart for this week. However, if you’re in the mood for a bite, may I suggest checking out Nosferatu? The film has made its debut on PVOD this week. It is a remake of the film Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror (1922), which was an unauthorised adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. This new version stars Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hoult, and Lily-Rose Depp. The supporting cast includes Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney, and Willem Dafoe. Being a horror fan, I loved the film. Written and directed by Robert Eggers, the film could be his magnum opus. If you feel like a good scare or two, rent the film for £15.99 or buy it early for £19.99 from your preferred site.

Will Count Orlok manage to take a bite out of the chart next week? There’s only one way to find out. Check back here next week to see what’s hot and what’s not in the official UK chart. So, until next time…

Whatever you decide, whatever you buy, stay safe, be kind, look after each other, and happy viewing!
