You know, horror fans, sometimes you bust open the bank?and sometimes, like this week, the bank busts you. Horror floundered with a poor showing this weekend, with the only notable film even registering on the radar being the PG-13 Prom Night, which dropped from third place to sixth this week, and brought in $4.4M for an impressive three-week total of $38.1M. Hardcore horror hounds should brace themselves for the inevitable onslaught of upcoming PG-13 slasher remakes that are bound to follow the moderate success of Prom Night.
