'Other Mommy' tops the box office with $27.5M; 'The Social Reckoning' opens to $5.5M

The Jessica Chastain horror film "Other Mommy," released by Universal Pictures, topped the North American box office this weekend with an earnings of $27.5 million, drawing a larger audience than expected.

In contrast, the new release "The Social Reckoning" experienced a lackluster box office start, opening to $5.5 million.

The strong performance of "Other Mommy" marks another commercial win for the horror genre.
