What's the standard Italian term to indicate that a movement isn't finished at the end of the page, and that it continues on the following page?

Segue? Volti (subito)?

V.S. (I've heard different ideas of what it stands for, but to an orchestra musician it means turn fast because there's more coming up!)

Segue means something new follows quickly, often a transition to the next movement, but that's a different sense. What you're looking for is that something continues. Typical in a Broadway book--a warning that an applause segue is coming up so get ready for a quick cue.
