Saw 3D took the top place at the box office this week with a strong $22.5 million. Paranormal Activity 2 had almost a 60% drop-off, but it still managed to hang onto second place with a take of $16.5 million. Both these films earnings suggest that fall dangers signs for genre were not terminal. Horror may no longer be king at the box office, but the right project can still make a princely sum.
