We must be getting close to Halloween."Zombieland" topped the box office this weekend with an estimated $25.0 million, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com
The low-budget horror/comedy Woody Harrelson was a surprise hit with audiences, knocking "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" out of the No. slot it held the past two weekends.
Also of note: Michael Moore's much-hyped "Capitalism: A Love Story" went into wide-release this weekend but grossed just $4.8 million to finish in 7th place. The film has made a disappointing $5.2 million in two weeks.
