Okay so after weeks of seeing that this is the scariest movie ever made I HAD to watch it and I finally got to without dissapointment! It started off slow, a guy and girl in a house who buy a video camera to try to catch strange happenings in their home. When things started to happen it was just freaky....

Paranormal Activity..... hmm, let me start by saying that anyone who truly knows me knows that I am a believer in the unknown.  That being admitted, I listened to the hype and saw this movie today.  After all, the reviews have been very favorable and it's made a ton of money.

A few weeks ago I saw the preview for this new film, Paranormal Activity. It was advertised as the scariest movie ever made and the clip showed little more than the audience's terrified reaction and a series of reviews from after the show. I am a huge fan of horror flicks and, before I realized I was way to big of a chicken, one day had wanted to be a parapsychologist. This was SO my type of movie. I was incredibly excited and quickly looked to see where it was playing -- only in 13 towns! I was devestated but, to my luck, just a couple of weeks later it opens in a few more locationds and one is...

With all of the "horror" movies that have come out as of late (Saw, Hostel), it's nice to see a genuine scary movie that doesn't rely on gore to get your attention.

Okay so after seeing the  many advertisement's my nieces finally got me to go see Paranormal activity. I was very skeptic  about it. It started out kind of slow  with a young couple moving in a new house and they decide to set up a video camera up to catch activity that goes on at night while they are sleeping. Once the paranormal things started to happen is when it got really good and eerie. The best part was when they poured baby powder on the bedroom floor before they went to bed and what happened next. I wont ruin it for you though. It made me very paranoid and every-time I hear a eerie...

I was one of the original people who wanted this movie shown in my area. I signed up on the paranormal activity website because of all the hype. All the commercials I watched made the movie sound so good. Even my local radio station DJ's touted the movie so much, I couldn't wait to see it. In the end, the movie was just about the hype.

While I was watching the movie, I kept waiting for a good part to come and that didn't happen till the very end. The story was a big waiting game and a stubborn character who insisted on playing with the paranormal. Why they never turned on their lights at night,...

This movie was good at best. Same kind of plot as the Blairwitch. Tries to make you think that this is a real documentary type film. Now if this was real.. it would be one of the scariest things I've every saw but I couldn't get passed the fact that it's not real. I was able to see this movie with an alternate ending which from what I heard the movie theater ending wasn't as good as this ending. Regardless, I have to admit that the thought of "Paranormal Activity" being based on true types of events did get me a bit spooked thinking about it.  I did find myself looking over my shoulder at home...

I am the biggest movie critic I know, I personally am into scary, horror, and paranormal/mythilogical type movies. I wasn't going to see in theater movie released in 2009 Paranormal Activity, assuming it was going to be cheesy graphics and a pointless plot. But everyone online was bloating about how great it was, and how they weren't going to be able to sleep after seeing it because how "scary" and "creepy" it was. So I decided I would go see it. My review; stupid waist of my time. Yes, I will give it to the movie producers, the overall concept of the movie had a good story line, and the the graphics...

My boyfriend and I love scary movies. We don't go to the theater very often, but we had heard some amazing reviews for "Paranormal Activity", so we decided to check it out. The reviews were WAY off! This movie was horrible; not even worth renting the DVD. I would compare the filming to "The Blair Witch Project" in that it was supposed to be a documentary of the demonic activity that the female lead character has experienced throughout her life. Of the approximately 90 minutes, only about 5 were mildly exciting. Do not waste your time or money on this movie. Trust me, you'll regret it.

The new theatre movie Paranormal Activity.Thsi movir is crap and has bad filming it is not even like a real movie it is very amatureish.I hated it and lost intrest in it almost immediately but thought I paid to see the movie so I might as well finsih it.I hated it.I am a huge paranormal guru but this sucked.I have saw better acting amongst 5 year olds.This movie advertizes as a movie,moviw ehen infact it is jst someone using a cam to see a door slam here.a women dragge from a bed,the same women screaming and then the boring end she stabs her boyfriend and kills him the police come as she is rocking...
