I want to set the record straight here and now with Paranormal Activity. In my opinion... This was the most awful display of horror I have ever witnessed... Ever. The Movie is brilliantly shot, great performances by the cast (i mean they aren't Super! great but they played their parts well) Sound was executed well. I mean when you boil everything down there was little money... So you look for faults as to Why there's no horror. The writer/Dir, must have had some crazy illusion/fantasy and must have really thought this was gonna scare people because no one in the theater was screaming, jumping, Anything... Matter of fact many people laughed (myself included) at many of these "horror" scenes.
Im gonna try to dissect this a little more for you, The film is on a documentary hype trying to best the Blair witch project in my opinion and it fails terribly. The entire movie was strings, mirrors and a few little fire effects. Nothing gruesome or horrifying up until the last scene where she gets possessed and does what? nothing because they don't say anything afterward its like a big joke that no one got. Everyone saw the ending and started marching straight to the ticket counter for refunds. I mean I was bored almost the entire time up until the last scene where I thought the movie was getting somewhere... Obviously not. Its either a bad attempt to make a sequel or just terrible writing/directing of the film leaving everyone in the theater waiting for something to happen other than the OBVIOUS!
I will say one more thing; If my little comment wasn't enough to convince you not to go, then I encourage you to go, waste your money and be terribly upset for not listening. I want to stress the upset for not listening part, honestly the 10 bucks to see this wasn't the worst part. What makes me upset is this big god damn joke everyone keeps trying to pull on IMDb telling people this movie is good. It is Not... I repeat not good. You have to be either extremely Dense or still in diapers to be afraid by the antics performed in this movie. I went to see this movie with high expectations after reading these "great" reviews; Despite my instincts (by instincts i meant watching the trailer was sufficient to see this movie was not up to par with its cohorts or for people to compare it to great movies which really just discredits these idiots who call themselves movie critics)telling me to avoid it in theaters and wait for a DVD release. I dare you to watch the trailers carefully... I promise you if you do you will see people laughing in the theaters... at the premiere. Lol
