'Venom: The Last Dance' Dominates Box Office Amidst Fierce Competition
"Venom: The Last Dance" continues to lead the box office for the third consecutive week, earning $16.2 million, despite a lackluster domestic performance. New releases "Heretic" and "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" debuted with $11 million and $8.9 million, respectively. "Heretic," starring Hugh Grant, received mixed audience reviews but is expected to be profitable due to its low budget. Overall, box office sales remain sluggish, but upcoming major releases are anticipated to boost theater attendance.
