## Summary

A sparse weekend for new film releases brings National Geographic’s *Everest: The Other Side* and psychological horror film *Breeder* to specialist cinemas, alongside two independent wide releases. With Halloween falling on a Saturday, the preview describes these as the only new wide releases, while several existing films continue to draw audiences.

Directed by Jimmy Chin and Chai Vasarhelyi, *Everest: The Other Side* follows Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson’s attempt to climb and ski Everest’s difficult North Face, a route no one had successfully skied down. *Breeder*, starring Daniel Doheny and Dot-Marie Jones, opened on 777 screens on Wednesday and was heading into the weekend with about $275,000; it had an 86% Rotten Tomatoes score from 37 reviews. *Christmas At The Kringles* opened on 1,825 screens, and *Sight & Sound Presents: Joshua Live!* on 1,230.
