'Ouija' and 'Nightcrawler' Top the Halloween Movie Box Office

Halloween weekend saw a fright fest at the box office. Jake Gyllenhaal's 'Nightcrawler' and board game horror 'Ouija' shared the number one spot, raking in $10.9 million each. 'Ouija' tells the story of a haunted board game that raises the dead, while low budget thriller 'Nightcrawler' stars Gyllenhaal has a creepy ambulance chaser who shoots gory footage for the local news. When final figures are announced on Monday there could be a slight shift in the winning positions but the horror genre retained a firm grip on the weekend sales. It was one of the quietest release weekends of the year for Hollywood studios, as Halloween cannibalized mainstream Friday night movie goers.
