Friday Box Office: Jason's Back!

New Line/Warner Bros./Paramount's redo "Friday the 13th" grossed $19.3 million as it debuted Friday in theaters, pulling off the best opening day gross ever for President's Day and the second best gross for a horror movie after "Hannibal," which posted a Friday gross of $19.7 million. Some might not consider "Hannibal" a horror movie, since the original "Silence of the Lambs" was nominated for an Oscar..

"Friday the 13th" should hit $50 million for the four-day weekend. Gulp.

Battling it out for No. 2 is 20th Century Fox's hit "Taken" and New Line/Warners holdover "He's Just Not That Into You." Coming in No. 4 on Friday was Disney debut "Confessions of a Shopaholic," which couldn't quite compete with "He's Just Not That Into You."

Stay tuned.
