Pulp Fiction director Quentin Tarantino reclaimed top spot at the box office over the weekend with the second half of his latest effort. "Kill Bill: Vol. 2," a unique mixture of action and comedy starring Uma Thurman, raked in $25.6 million in the United States. The latest comic book adaptation, "The Punisher," debuted in second spot with $14 million Ñ not as big an opening as producers had anticipated. "Johnson Family Vacation" placed third with $6.42 million, "Hellboy" fourth with $5.7 million, and "Home on the Range" fifth with $5.4 million. Shaggy and the gang continue to draw the crowds, as "Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed" brought in $5.13 million, good for sixth spot. The sequel has now taken in an impressive $72.2 million since its March release. Rounding out the top ten films were "Walking Tall" ($4.6 million); "Ella Enchanted" ($4.42 million); "The Passion of the Christ" ($4.19 million); and "The Alamo" ($4.05 million).
