PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Tyler Perry's comedy, Boo! A Madea Halloween, made it two weekends in a row at the top by finishing first at the box office over Halloween weekend, earning an estimated $17-million.
The runner-up spot went to the second Da Vinci Code sequel, Inferno, the Tom Hanks starrer from novelist Dan Brown and director Ron Howard, which took in a disappointing $15-million, well below the performance of its two predecessors.

The Tom Cruise sequel, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back, was third with $10 -million.
Fourth, with $9-million, was the action thriller, The Accountant.
And the horror sequel, Ouija: Origin of Evil, was fifth with $7-million.
Overall, industry-wide totals were well below those of last weekend, but slightly above those of last year's Halloween weekend.
