Those whippersnappers have once again snapped up the box office crown. Over the Halloween weekend, High School Musical 3 got top marks at the box office for the second weekend in a row, this time bringing in just over $15 million. According to Variety, this pushed "its worldwide total to an estimated $146.8 million after 10 days in release."

Kevin Smith's raunchy comedy Zack and Miri Make a Porno debuted at No. 2, just barely beating out Saw V with each movie raking in something in the $10 million range. Opening nationwide over the weekend, Clint Eastwood's Changeling nabbed the fourth spot with an estimated $9.4 million. Per location, however, Changeling is the big winner, with an "average of $5,085, the best of any film in the top 10 chart." The Haunting of Molly Hartley rounded out the top five with approximately $6 million over its opening week.

Love It or Leave It: The Haunting of Molly Hartley

'Tis the season for spooky movies, and this one (opening Oct. 31, natch) includes two recognizable faces for any fan of current CW teen shows: Chace Crawford (Nate on Gossip Girl) and AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi on 90210). In fact, the trailer for The Haunting of Molly Hartley itself takes place at a private school and generally smacks of CW teen angst. I love to see that on my TV each week, but I wonder if this scary movie will be equally satisfying. The story seems more intriguing as the trailer gets toward the end, in my opinion, but what do you think? Will you watch The Haunting of Molly Hartley someday when you feel like having a scare?
