Ranging from the outdoorsy to the artsy, here are the local weekend events.

Another easy choice this weekend: The decision to cast Haley as the villainous Krueger, who kills young people in their dreams, is one of the most interesting choices in a long time. Haley is bound to give this horror remake some real adrenaline.

A romantic comedy starring Jennifer Lopez is so nine years ago. Sorry, J-Lo. “The Losers” seems promising, if only because Morgan proved in 2008’s “Watchmen” that he plays the wise-cracking action hero perfectly.

“Down the Way” is the sophomore album release from Australian brother and sister duo, Angus and Julia Stone. Those passing by might quickly group this duo with the likes of The White Stripes, but the sound is incredibly different.

Though watching Tracy Morgan in anything is worth the money, “Kick-Ass” is the major choice this weekend. If the now notorious trailers do the film any justice, “Kick-Ass” is a legendary film in the making.

Icelandic band Sigur Rós is on hiatus for the year, but lead guitarist and vocalist Jónsi has released a solo album to rival all other albums this year. The album was produced by Peter Katis and includes composition work from Nico Muhly.

Recommended: “Date Night”
The movie choice this weekend is easy. The first-time pairing of comedy heavy-hitters Fey and Carell promises to bring major laughs.

The Dum Dum Girls, an all-girl band from Los Angeles, released “I Will Be.” The Dum Dum Girls have a retro throwback sound with elements of 1960s garage rock meshed with a 1970s punk attitude. The sound is comparable to garage rock revivalists, The Raveonettes.

Recommended: “Clash of the Titans”
It’s a hard decision this week as both major releases seem slightly uninteresting. When all else fails, choose the 3D movie. At least moviegoers can get a few good visuals.

English duo Alison Goldfrapp and Will Gregory have released their fifth studio album in the past 10 years with “Head First” from Mute Records. Both members play the synthesizer with Goldfrapp on vocals.
