Sister Sister 3 seizes Vietnam demand lead with FDI of 77.5

Clayface moved past Karaoke Murder, The Journey of Heroes and Death Whisperer: Saming the Werebeast as the local leader changed hands.

  • Sister Sister 3 rose 69.7 points in a week.
  • Clayface climbed to second place with an FDI of 6.0.
  • Godzilla Minus Zero has Unlock advance tickets before release.

Sister Sister 3 is now the film Vietnam most wants to see, rising from fourth to first with an FDI of 77.5 on the SEATmio Film Demand Index (FDI) after gaining 69.7 points in a week. FDI measures a film’s percent share of all tracked tickets in Vietnam, including the last 7 days of screenings and advance sales. Ticket figures are rounded SEATmio estimates, and Sister Sister 3 drew Unlock tickets in the last 7 days with Unlock more in advance sales.

Nguyễn Hữu Hoàng’s local romance-thriller drama, from the director of Song Song and Ma Da: The Drowning Spirit, stars Ninh Dương Lan Ngọc, Quốc Anh, Kỳ Duyên, Chi Pu and Steven Nguyễn in a story of secret love and social constraint in traditional Northern Vietnam. Its move reshaped the market: Sister Sister 3 passed Karaoke Murder, The Journey of Heroes and Death Whisperer: Saming the Werebeast since last week. It now sits ahead of Clayface, which has an FDI of 6.0, and Karaoke Murder, which has an FDI of 5.9.

Clayface is the strongest global challenger. James Watkins’ horror-thriller, from the director of Speak No Evil and Eden Lake, climbed from seventh to second after overtaking Karaoke Murder, The Journey of Heroes, Death Whisperer: Saming the Werebeast, Cõi Nguyền and Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom. The film, about the disfigured actor Matt Hagen’s destructive pursuit of revenge, rose 4.5 points and sold Unlock tickets in the last 7 days.

Vietnamese production remains the central story beyond the leader. Lê Hoàng’s Karaoke Murder, a comedy-mystery thriller about a pilgrimage killing after a neighborhood karaoke feud, fell 42.1 points from last week’s lead to third place. The Journey of Heroes, the local action-thriller about an escape from a scam compound, fell 16.9 points to fourth place and has an FDI of 4.8.

Last weekend, Sister Sister 3 sold the most tickets after opening with Unlock from October 30 to November 1. KARAOKILL was second with Unlock after falling 82% from the previous weekend. Clayface opened in third with Unlock, ahead of The Journey of Heroes with Unlock after a 69% drop, while Death Whisperer: Saming the Werebeast took Unlock and fell 82%.

The next wave arrives on November 6, led by Godzilla Minus Zero with an FDI of 0.9 and Unlock advance tickets. Takashi Yamazaki’s science fiction-horror action film, from the director of Godzilla Minus One and The Eternal Zero, brings Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe and Yuki Yamada into a postwar story of renewed threat. Local drama Flying Cows follows with an FDI of 0.6 and Unlock advance tickets, while Paradise Lost has an FDI of 0.2 and Unlock advance tickets.
