Disappointingly Average Movie

Rating: 2/10 (20 May 2011)

I find it hard to believe that so many people think this movie is fabulous and soooo scary. What? Did I just watch the same movie? Strangely, the answer is...yes..yes I did! I had to go through 5 pages of reviews on this site to finally find some people who also were unimpressed with this film.
I'm not even bothering to go into the whole plot. It reminded me of "Poltergeist", but no where near as thrilling and suspenseful. No. Where. Near. The buildup was so damned slow and the plot wasn't very good either. It was a totally average kind of horror movie. Maybe not even average. I thought it was kind of stupid. People were laughing in the audience. Not good when it's not a funny scene on the screen. It wasn't scary or suspenseful. I don't understand how people can call this movie frightening and unsettling. It's totally not either. Of course, I didn't think Paranormal Activity was scary, suspenseful or very good.
I guess, if you liked Paranormal Activity...have at it and watch this. If, like me, you though PA was totally over hyped...then don't watch this. It'll be a waste of your time.
