M. Night Shyamalan's horror-thriller Split stayed atop the North American box office for a third weekend in a row with $14.6 million from 3,373 theaters, the first time the filmmaker has claimed that victory since The Sixth Sense in 1999.

Horror ruled the weekend all the way around. Paramount's Rings, returning the franchise to the big screen after a long absence, placed No. 2 with an estimated $13 million from 2,931 theaters. The new pic had hoped to win the weekend, considering Split is well into its run.

Through Sunday, Split has grossed $98.7 million domestically for Blumhouse Productions and Universal. It is the first Universal title since Straight Outta Compton in 2015 to win the race for three consecutive frames. Overseas, the film, starring James McVoy, earned another $14.6 million from 41 markets for a foreign total of $44 million and a global tally of $142.7 million.

STX Entertainment's younger-skewing space romance The Space Between Us bombed in its launch with $3.8 million from 2,812 theaters and coming in at No. 9. (STX insiders say the company's exposure on the $30 million film is reduced to $3.7 million when factoring in foreign deals, co-financing partners and tax incentives.)

If it's Sci-Fi or comic related, it's on my radar.
