Paranormal Activity 5 Gets its Director Hot on the heels of yesterday’s announcement that Paranormal Activity 5 had found its writers in Jason Pagan and Andrew Stark (Almanac), we now know who will be taking the directorial reins. Read on for details.

According to Deadline, after serving as the editor and co-producer of the last three Paranormal Activity films and the spinoff The Marked Ones that is being released in January, Gregory Plotkin is going to make his directorial debut on Paranormal Activity 5. He has a long list of credits as an editor or assistant editor on films that include Pleasantville, The Insider, and The Break-Up. He has become more and more involved in the Paranormal Activity found-footage franchises, and now he gets his shot behind the camera.

The Latino-themed spin-off, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones directed by Christopher Landon, will hit theatres on January 3, 2014, and then we’ll see the franchise sequel, Paranormal Activity 5, on October 24, 2014.
