Box Office: ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ Stays No. 1 as ‘Speak No Evil’ Impresses and ‘Killer’s Game’ Bombs

Tim Burton and Warner Bros.’ Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is losing none of its ghostly mojo in its second weekend and will easily stay atop the box office chart with $52 million or more as it hurtles toward the $200 million mark domestically.

The pic, playing in 4,575 theaters domestically, could fall as little as 51 percent.

Blumhouse and Universal’s new horror-thriller Speak No Evil is also good news for the box office. The pic, coming No. 2, is on course to open to a better-than-expected $12.3 million from 3,375 locations against a budget of just $15 million before marketing. The movie follows an American family as they spend the weekend at a plush British estate only to discover that their host, played by James McAvoy, has a rather sinister side. McAvoy is earning strong marks for his performance.
