Transformers III is easily the highest grossing film at The Box Office, but that will all change with Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part II numbers next week. As far as horror goes, Trollhunter is stalling, Hobo With A Shotgun is steadily rising, and Insidious actually moved up a couple spots. Maybe the increase in sales is due to the DVD release?

True Blood fans recouped after last weeks disaster, and made it the number one horror themed show this week including to the Nielson ratings system.

Despite not so stellar numbers, Teen Wolf was renewed for season two on MTV.

Interesting stats… but a bit depressing to see Insidious take a fifth of what Transformers has taken so far!
