First Look: ‘Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones’ Trailer

Guess what? There’s another Paranormal Activity movie coming to theaters in 2014, however, it’s coming in January rather than October. All four previous Paranormal Activity films opened near Halloween, but Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is hoping people want to be spooked after the year-end holidays instead – as if looking at your credit card bills isn’t enough to make you scream.

This fifth film is also the first of the batch not to be designated with a number in its title. Plus, the trailer shows off a completely different setting for the paranormal activities, probably because the previous four movies have killed off all the family members at this point.

The studio is once again offering select cities advance screenings. Here’s the scoop:

– Upload a photo of paranormal activity in your city to Facebook, Twitter or Instagram tagging your city and #TheMarkedOnes for a chance to see The Marked Ones first.

AMC will be bringing back Small Town Security for a third season as just announced by the network’s EVP Original Programming, Production and Digital Content Joel Stillerman. The network also confirmed they’re moving forward on the unscripted series King of Arms from producers Dan Ilani, Matt Renner and Ethan Prochnik. King of Arms is set in the world of competitive arm wrestling, which apparently is extremely popular, and will follow members from five arm wrestling clubs. Season one will be comprised of ten one-hour episodes set to air early next year.
 
King of Arms, Small Town Security and Freakshow all take viewers inside worlds most have never seen, populated by unique and unforgettable characters,” said Joel Stillerman, EVP Original Programming, Production and Digital Content. “We are looking forward to bringing these new and returning series to AMC viewers and are very excited to be working with Undertow Films on our new unscripted original, King of Arms.”
 
King of Arms Details:
 
King of Arms focuses on arm wrestling clubs across America, embedding with teams in Baton Rouge, New York City, Erie, Sacramento and Kansas City. Each episode culminates with high-stakes mano-a-mano combat where brute strength is often defeated by technique, strategy and heart.
 
Small Town Security Details:
 
Small Town Security is the sometimes hilarious, sometimes poignant, and just plain unusual series that explores a small, family-run security and private investigation company in Ringgold, Georgia called JJK Security. Executive Produced by Ken Druckerman and Banks Tarver of Left/Right Films (This American Life, Mob Wives), the show captures the day-to-day of the business, but it’s really about the curiously entertaining and oddly compelling characters that inhabit this world.

‘Game of Thrones’ is Actually a Comedy Set at a Medieval Theme Park

“Are you a fan of the Pikachu?” Thanks to the folks at Bad Lip Reading, Game of Thrones has just become a lot more lighthearted and funny. And while this isn’t the Bad Lip Reading team’s best effort (that honor goes to their NFL video), the “Medieval Land Fun-Time World” take on Game of Thrones is worthy of six minutes of your time.

“Darth Vader is bad, and his assistant is a mouse.” Just had to type that quote for the first and only time of my life.

The Definitely Not Safe for Work Trailer for ‘That Awkward Moment’

I’m not joking – this one is restricted, adult, and not safe for work. You’ve been warned.

The red band trailer for That Awkward Moment (formerly known as Are We Officially Dating?) features Zac Efron, Miles Teller, and Michael B. Jordan as BFFs figuring out relationships. Or, as the official synopsis includes, they’re “at that confusing ‘moment’ in every dating relationship when you have to decide ‘So…where is this going?'”

The cast also includes Imogene Poots and Jessica Lucas. Written and directed by Tom Gormican, That Awkward Moment opens in theaters on January 31, 2014.
