Suspense thriller took in $23 million to debut at number one last
weekend



U.S. theatergoers chose suspense over skating, as Disturbia unseated
Blades Of Glory for the U.S. box office championship. The peeping tom
thriller starring Shia LaBeouf and David Morse took in $23 million to
debut at number one last weekend.

The real winner continues to be DreamWorks Pictures, distributor of
both Disturbia and Blades Of Glory.

LeBeouf, who plays a teen under house arrest who suspects a neighbor
of murder, is also on the upswing. The 20-year-old actor has been
confirmed to appear in the fourth Indiana Jones movie, set for
worldwide release in May, 2008.

He will also provide the lead voice for this year's animated penguin
comedy Surf's Up, while starring in the science fiction adventure
Transformers.
