King Kong’s box office take this weekend fell by 50% to $12.5 million, leaving it behind ‘The Chronicles of Narnia,’ which brought in $15.4 million, and a little horror flick called ‘Hostel,’ which captured the number one spot bringing in an impressive $20.1 million. This was reported by boxofficemojo.com.

‘Hostel,’ which cost only $4.8 million to make, is about young Americans who become unwilling subjects of a pay-to-torture service during a pleasure trip to Europe.

King Kong’s domestic box office now stands at $192.5 million, leaving it in a good position to top the $200 million mark by the end of the week.
