Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Following a 2023 that saw several breakout horror hits arrive in the domestic market—led by day-and-date release Five Nights at Freddy’s, which opened to $80M in late October before legging out to $137.2M domestically—the first half of 2024 failed to deliver a horror title that crossed over to general audiences, leaving A Quiet Place: Day One to snag the “top-grossing horror movie of 2024” title within mere days of its June 28 opening. Though Sony horror release Afraid won’t surpass Day One when it hits theaters in wide release on August 30, given the state of horror this year it has a solid shot at cracking the top five. Additional horror films to come to cinemas in 2024 include Smile 2, They Listen, and Terrifier 3.
