The Fog, starring Selma Blair and Tom Welling, earned a rather modest $12.2 million, but still came in at number one. The film is a remake of the 1980s version, in which a coastal town is terrorized by a mysterious mist and some rather unfriendly ghosts and the remains of a 100-year-old shipwreck.
Last weekend?s number one film, Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit, dropped to second place with sales of $11.7 million.
The Cameron Crowe film Elizabethtown, starring Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom, opened in third with a somewhat unimpressive $11 million.
U.S. and Canadian business for the top 12 films Friday through Sunday was down more than 18 per cent from the same time last year, making it the third straight weekend of declining revenue.
