LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The North American summer movie-going season officially closed on a scary note on Monday as the horror sequel "Jeepers Creepers 2" scored a record opening for the Labor Day holiday weekend.
The low-budget film earned about $18.5 million in the four days since opening on Friday, beating the old Labor Day record -- held by its 2001 predecessor -- of $15.8 million.
The champ for the previous two weekends, another horror franchise, "Freddy Vs. Jason," slid to No. 7 with $8.1 million in its third round.
The No. 2 slot went to the hit Jamie Lee Curtis comedy "Freaky Friday," which rose two places and earned $11.7 million. The police thriller "S.W.A.T." fell one place to No. 3 with $10.5 million. Both were in their fourth weekends.
Two films tied at No. 4, both with $10.2 million: the Kevin Costner Western "Open Range," and the Johnny Depp swashbuckler "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl".
"Jeepers Creepers 2" was released by United Artists, the art house unit of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc . "Freddy vs. Jason" was released by New Line Cinema, a unit of AOL Time Warner Inc . "S.W.A.T." was released by Columbia Pictures, a unit of Sony Corp . "Freaky Friday," "Open Range" and "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" were all Walt Disney Co. films.

Pirates is still going strong and only needs about $5million to pass Matrix Reloaded to move into the number 2 spot on the year. Disney is having an awesome year.
You're waiting for a train, a train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you can't be sure. But it doesn't matter - because we'll be together.

Well, it's not hard for Jeepers Creeps to debut at #1. Not a single movie that's even smelled like it had significance has come out since SWAT. Freddy vs. Jason and JC2 did well because there is zero competition. Why don't the studios get this? They're all fighting tooth and nail for release dates in May and June when August is wide open! Signs came out in August last year and freakin' dominated! When will the suits learn?
Are you a Mexi-CAN or a Mexi-CAN'T?
