reading from file giving me weird numbers

stc5097 (9)
Hello everybody. i am trying to create a function called void theaterPrices(int prices[]) that reads in 15 numbers from a txt file and stores them in the array prices. the function then displays the prices. when i display the prices, it displays them all as -858993460. i have tried everything but can't seem to get it to display the numbers correctly. I even deleted the file name and it is still displaying this weird number. I am not sure what do to so if any body can help i would appreciate it. below is my code.
