SEBRING, October 27, 2008 – A souped up TV movie slammed into the Silver Screen and produced gold for Disney, while an imaginative gorefest filled the plates of horror movie fans for Halloween.
The No. 1 film in North America is High School Musical 3, The song and dance spectacular with Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens grossed $42 million – almost four times its puny $11 million budget.
It was followed by the film that has made Tobin Bell as household name and a household face, though not always his own. Saw 5 finished No. 2 with a gross of $30.5 million. Budgeted at a mere $10.8 million, Saw 5 is also a smashing success in just its opening weekend.
Both films play in Highlands County at the Fairmount Cinema 6.
Nobody else came close to these two. No other film scored in doube digits. It’s lonely – but wealthy and healthy – at the top.
