LOS ANGELES — The undead were alive and well at movie theaters as Woody Harrelson’s horror comedy “Zombieland” opened on top with $25 million over the weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday. But the general box office was less lively as a flurry of new releases did solid to ho-hum business.
Sony scored a one-two punch with “Zombieland” and “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs,” which took in $16.7 million, slipping to second place.
At No. 3 was a double-feature reissue of Disney’s “Toy Story” and “Toy Story 2” in 3-D, with $12.5 million. “The Invention of Lying” took in $7.4 million; and “Surrogates” finished in the No. 5 spot with $7.3 million. The Associated Press
