Hitting 505 screens last weekend, Dead or Alive raked in a paltry $232,000 over the 3-day weekend.  That’s just over $150 a day per screen, which means that approximately 15-25 people were watching each screen that was DOA-dedicated.  This is yet another indication that film adaptations of video-games are following in a tradition steadily-decreasing quality.  Although the average rating of DOA on IMDB is 4.8/10, I highly doubt that half of the people who have seen it are genuinely satisfied.
