Mon 05 Mar 10:00 AM

New star-studded comedy "Wild Hogs" has roared straight to the top of the US box office chart. The movie, which sees Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence, John Travolta and William H. Macy star as a group of middle-aged, suburban bikers who hit the road in search of adventure, earned an impressive $38 million over the weekend (March 2nd - 4th) while second place went to another new entry - serial killer drama "Zodiac", which took just over $13 million. The film charts the hunt for the notorious murderer in '70s San Francisco and stars the likes of Jake Gyllenhaal, Mark Ruffalo and Robert Downey Jr.

Last week's No. 1, comic book adventure "Ghost Rider", fell to third while family fantasy "Bridge to Terabithia" and creepy thriller "the number 23" took fourth and fifth respectively.
