I'm a pretty big horror fan, and like to watch terrible horror movies, but I consider that home viewing, DVD-rental fare. I wouldn't exactly hit the cinema to catch most of this tripe. I'd rather stya at home and save my cash and watch some show about motorhome towing or some crap on TLC.
Anyways, the top 2 grossing movies this week at the box office are THE Final Desitination (I seem to remember about 60 sequels of just "Final Destination", but I may be wrong) and the remake of Halloween 2.
"The Final Destination," from Warner Bros.' New Line label, was No. 1 with an estimated $28.3 million worth of tickets sold in the U.S. and Canada, boosted by sales at pricier 3-D screens.
Weinstein Co.'s "Halloween II," meanwhile, landed at No. 3 with a solid $17.4 million. Each movie had been expected to take in close to $20 million based on pre-release audience polling.
"Inglourious Basterds" declined a relatively modest 47% on its second weekend to $20 million, good enough for second place. Combined with the $19 million it grossed overseas, the Quentin Tarantino-directed drama has garnered $132.9 million worldwide in just 10 days, a strong showing given its production budget of about $70 million and good news for the two studios behind it, Universal and financially strapped Weinstein Co.
