Interesting, but not the best

Rating: 8/10 (4 January 2020)

An interesting and thought-provoking horror flick, but ultimately unfulfilling. The film does indeed have a unique and fun concept, and the way it is short makes for some truly new claustrophobic horror that hasn't been truly done this way before. The actors do a rather decent job in whole, even though there is probably about 4 of them, the movie does depend on them and they are able to carry the film for the most part quite nicely. The film is only about an hour and a half long, but the pacing of the film makes the entertainment factor ultimately fall rather flat. The film can be engaging at times, but at times you can't help but feel distant and even a bit annoyed at the fact that this film can't seem to do as much as they could with the scenario. In the end, Paranormal Activity is a fun found footage film, which like Blair Witch, is able to hold itself rather well with the actors, but rather flimsy when it comes to concluding a true story.
My Rating: 8.25/10
