Christopher WaldeckParanormal Activity has finally made it on top!
October 26th 2009 21:26
this week the ridiculously overdone Saw franchise met it's lowest debut of 16.8 million as it was trumped by paranormal activity at the box office. the little horror movie that could continues to scare in the 20 million range and prove that creativity and independent filmmaking can still be done to Perfection. all the other films dropped in profits from last week, but still remained high on the list. the former first and second are now third and fourth. that's right I'm talking about Law abiding citizen and Where the Wild Things are. The rest of the new releases this week tanked at the box office. That sucks for Paul Weitz who directed Cirque De freak which was panned by most critics and did horrible at the box office which proves to be another Universal studios dud. They better call Spielberg. Paul now has to watch his brother Chris rake in the dough with New Moon.
