Even though Rob Zombie's Halloween II finished it's opening weeked at the number three spot, it did pull in $17,405,000
Due to the box office take over the weekend, Bob Weinstein announced that Michael will return for another trip down the streets of Haddonfield in Halloween 3-D.
The investment it takes to shoot movies in digital 3-D has proved particularly lucrative for horror films. For The Final Destination, this weekend's number 1 movie, theaters with at least one 3-D screen earned 3.25 times as much as those that showed the movie in 2-D only, according to distributor Warner Bros. Back in January, the horror flick My Bloody Valentine earned 6.4 times as much from 3-D theaters as it did from 2-D on its opening weekend.
Weinstein said Rob Zombie, who directed Halloween II and 2007's reboot of the 31-year-old horror series, won't return for Halloween 3-D. He said the studio is in negotiations with a new director, whom he declined to name, who has experience in horror and has a "different take" on the franchise!
