Carrie
An outcast high-schooler (Chloë Grace Moretz) with telekinetic powers gets revenge-y at her prom, and the Liberal Media just blames it on her religious mother (Julianne Moore). Based on a book, movie and first-person shooter. (Screen Gems)

Riddick
In the third and final(?) installment of the series, Riddick (Vin Diesel) finally decides to get the hell off of the stupid desert planet (good call) and sends a signal to the mercenaries out to capture/kill him (bad call). Oh, and now he has a pet! (Universal)

Army of the Damned
Followed by reality-TV cameras, a police chief (Sully Erma—yes, the singer of Godsmack) and his men battle a small-town zombie outbreak. Also starring rassler Tommy Dreamer, porn star Jasmin St. Claire and … Joey Fatone?! (Screen Media)

StreetDance 2
After being dissed by a rival crew, Ash (Falk Hentschel) only has six weeks to assemble the best dancers from around the world for a rematch. Who set this unreasonable deadline? And what kind of budget is StreetDancers working with? (Phase 4)

You’re Next
A gang of ax-wielding killers take a rich family hostage in their home, and it’s up to a 98-pound houseguest (Sharni Vinson) to save everyone from the animal-masked assailants. Surprise! They all die. So, who’s next? StreetDancers? (Lionsgate)
