Sandra Bullock and Billy Bob Thornton‘s “Our Brand Is Crisis” landed with a thud and Bradley Cooper‘s “Burnt” was toast in its debut Friday and, with moviegoers distracted by Halloween, the weekend box office looking like a graveyard.
“The Martian” and “Goosebumps” were battling for No. 1 for the third straight weekend, but it was largely by default with the low-budget teen horror comedy “Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse” tanking in its debut, too.
Fox’s Matt Damon sci-fi saga had a slight edge Friday with $3.5 million to the roughly $3 million scared up by Sony’s Jack Black family comedy.
