- ‘Other Mommy’ topped the box office this weekend.
- ‘The Social Reckoning’ opened fifth.
- ‘Verity’ slipped to second.
It doesn’t always hit, and negative reviews didn’t help in this case, but the horror genre once more proved a robust box office performer. Universal’s ‘Other Mommy,’ which stars Jessica Chastain, survived its critical reaction to open top of the charts with $27.5 million.
It pushed down last week’s champ ‘Verity’ to second place, with $11.48 million.
The other new arrival for the week, Aaron Sorkin’s ‘The Social Reckoning,’ opened softer, landing fifth beneath expectations with $5.5 million.
