But it wasn't all bright-pink doom and choreographed gloom this Halloween weekend. Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri (the Make a Porno is optional) brought in $10.6 million for second place -- the second-highest opening weekend for Smith after Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, and slightly better than Clerks 2. The only other new release in the top ten was The Haunting of Molly Hartley, which came in at #5 with $6 million. It probably would have done better if Saw V and Changeling hadn't sucked up all the scary-movie Halloween money to score the third and fourth spots. Also, a few more Gossip Girl and 90210 cast members in the movie couldn't have hurt.
