The teen thriller "Disturbia" led the North American box office for a third weekend, as another slew of lowly new releases tried to get a toehold before next Friday's release of "Spider-Man 3," the first big film of the lucrative summer moviegoing season.
"Disturbia," a low-budget homage to Alfred Hitchcock's nosy-neighbor thriller "Rear Window," sold $9.1 million worth of tickets in the three days beginning Friday, distributor Paramount Pictures said on Sunday. It's the lowest tally for a No. 1 movie since "The Covenant" earned $8.9 million in the second weekend of September 2006.
