Box office blog: 'Prom Night,' like, totally wins
Short, simple and rated PG-13 to drawn in as many high schoolers as possible, the remake of 1980's "Prom Night" was crowned weekend box office champ with a dazzling $22 million. Not bad for a movie that's only slightly better than its terrible, horribly dated predecessor. (Especially since the new version only cost about $20 million to make.) Keanu Reeves' run-of-the-mill thriller "Street Kings" placed second with a decent $12 million, and the painfully uninteresting "Smart People" earned $4.7 million to land at No. 7.
Did "Prom Night" seem like a guilty pleasure worth seeing? Or are you saving your movie-ticket budget for "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," which opens Friday?

Prom Night was still number 1 but actually made $200,000,000 less than first publically stated and Street Kings actually made $400,000 more than was publically stated.
See for yourself.

And more good news for us Street Kings fans...it looks like Prom Night's daily intakes have drastically dropped whereas Street Kings has only a little and Street Kings actually beat out Prom Night for Sunday night's profits so don't count Street Kings out yet. I believe it will have legs and continue to make money whereas Prom Night will continue to drop like a ton of bricks!
Here's the box office standings as of Sunday...
