As previously speculated, Paranormal Activity 5 is officially moving from this October to 2014 — October 24, to be exact — with the Latino spinoff, dubbed Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones, set for January 3, 2014 (a slot previously occupied by fellow “found footage” fare The Amityville Horror: The Lost Tapes, which is now apparently homeless).

If you think there are too many big-screen horror remakes nowadays, you might not want to turn on your TV for the next few years. That’s because small-screen remakes of horror classics seem to be the next big trend. Earlier this year, we had Bates Motel revisiting Psycho and Hannibal revisiting the Hannibal Lecter franchise, while this fall will witness NBC’s Dracula (not to mention the successful Teen Wolf, the failed attempt at Zombieland and long-gestating shows based on Clarice Starling and the Hellraiser movies), and now there’s word that Rosemary’s Baby and The Exorcist are the next to be targeted as TV series.

Child's Play isn't the only horror franchise moving from theaters to the direct-to-video realm this fall; Fright Night 2: New Blood will land on home video on October 1. Ostensibly a sequel to the 2011 Fright Night remake starring Colin Farrell, Fright Night 2 is actually a standalone re-imagining of the same storyline, with young Charley Brewster, his girlfriend Amy and friend Evil Ed once again stumbling upon a vampire named Gerri Dandridge -- this time a woman (their college professor) -- and enlisting the help of Peter Vincent (returning to the horror host role of the original film) to defeat the bloodsucker.

Perennial nice guy Michael Cera takes a dark turn in Magic Magic, the latest effort from acclaimed Chilean filmmaker Sebastián Silva (The Maid). It's the story of a young American woman (Juno Temple) who finds herself in a remote house with three strangers (including Cera) who may have ominous intentions. Fans of psychological thrillers like Black Swan and the works of Roman Polanski might want to check it out. Read about it in my review of Magic Magic.
