I would say that having it playing in ONE theater in each of a handful of towns and making over 300 grand would mean that the theaters were packed. Or am I way off base on that?

Cinemas pay for the film by the week here and make a decision based on how well something opens in that they would just not bother with it if they couldn't see it selling as well as something else current.
A lot of films do seem to just vanish and end up as DVD only or will get shown in just one country but never end up in the cinema in any other countries based on the first country's sales.
