The latest movie in the Alien franchise is terrifying fans, and this week, following its release on disc, Alien: Romulus rose to Number 1 on the Official Film Chart.

Thanks to strong physical sales following its release on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K UHD, the film lifts three to earn a place at the top of the chart for the first time.

Meanwhile, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice re-enters the chart this week, matching its previous peak of Number 2, while Christmas classic Elf ascends six places up the Top 10 to Number 3.

Four more Christmas films feature in this week’s Top 10; Love Actually, which flies ten (4), The Polar Express, up seven (5), last week’s Number 1 The Grinch (2018) (7) and the live-action 2000 version of The Grinch (9), lifting four places.

This week’s highest new entry is 2023 epic Godzilla Minus One, which makes its debut at Number 6. We also see former Number 1 Wonka soar up 16 places to Number 8, marking its 23^rd non-consecutive week in the Top 10.
