Week Box Office Report

I am really beginning to believe that horror movies make a lot of money.  But, I don’t like them because they give me nightmares.   Take the top box office movie this week, “Prom Night,” it is way too scary for me, and out of these top ten, I’d go see “Nim’s Island.” What about you?

“Street Kings” and “Prom Night” are the movies to hit the top two box office score. 

“Kings” is rated R while “Night” is rated PG-13; it looks like the “Night” will come out ahead because the rating gives the movie a larger audience base. Although I prefer Keanu Reeves and Forest Whitaker over being scared in a dark movie theater.

A nice gem to try to catch this weekend is “Smart People” with limited distribution. Ellen Page, Dennis Quaid and Sarah Jessica Parker star in this dark comedy.
