11th - Extraterrestrial - Premiere - April (Brittany Allen) is reeling from her parents' divorce, and is dragged back to the vacation cabin she spent fond summers at as a child accompanied by a group of friends.

The college friends soon find themselves caught in the middle of something bigger and more terrifying than they ever thought possible.

18th - Dark Skies - The Barrett family start to experience an escalating series of disturbing phenomena occurring around their suburban home, leading them to believe that they are being targeted by an unimaginable deadly force. They soon realise that they must uncover this deadly mystery, by any means necessary, before it's too late.

25th - Skyline - The residents of Los Angeles are awakened in the dead of night by an eerie light which is hypnotically drawing people outside before they suddenly vanish into thin air. As the world unravels, a band of survivors soon discover they must fight against the onslaught of a mysterious alien horde. Who or what are these extra-terrestrials and how long before mankind succumbs to their overwhelming power?"
