Vampires and werewolves kept their grip on teenage girls at the multiplex this weekend, as the fourth installment in the “Twilight” franchise had the fifth-best domestic opening of all time at the box office. “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 1” raked in $139.5 million, according to an estimate from distributor Summit Entertainment. While that was an impressive opening, “Breaking Dawn” still fell just short of breaking the $142.8-million opening weekend record held by the second installment in the series, 2009's “New Moon.” “Happy Feet Two,” the weekend’s only other new release, did not have as much to smile about. The 3-D animated sequel starring dancing penguins collected a disappointing $22 million.

Heading into the weekend, Summit said it was not expecting “Breaking Dawn” to gross more than $125 million this weekend, though prerelease audience surveys had forecasted an opening of as much as $150 million.
