Run Sweetheart Run made its way to the Sundance Festival in early 2020. It was slated to hit theaters for the general audience in May, but had to cancel indefinitely due to coronavirus concerns. The psychological thriller has so far met mostly positive critical reviews.

With each movie, the budget of the Paranormal Activity films has only grown, while box office numbers (though still strong) have started to dwindle. Paranormal Activity 7 may offer the revitalization the franchise desperately needs to maintain audience faith in its ability to produce quality horror.
