Morbius is the gift that keeps on giving at the moment, as the film’s ironic popularity continues to grow. You won’t have to remind many Morbheads that the film pretty much bombed at the box office, bringing in a worldwide total of $163 on a budget of $75 million. The film was so bad that it spawned an ironic group of fans that relentlessly extol the virtues of Dr. Michael Morbius. Sony noticed this ironic popularity, thought it could make money off of it, and went on to make Morbius one of very few films to bomb twice.
