Paranomal Activity Review

This biggest movie let down I have ever experienced.
I was one of the first people to request Paranormal Activity in my area. It looked so realistic and scary I was for sure it was going to scare the crap out of my and wanted to be able to see it before someone spoiled it for me.

The movie is filmed much like Cloverfield and the ever famous Blair Witch Project. I, unlike many others, LOVE this way of filiming. Yes, Cloverfield made me very motion sick when I saw it in theatres, but I think that extra creepy feeling one gets when it is truly hard to judge weather it is real film or just a Hollywood-made movie.

I digress, back to Paranormal Activity. The movie gets off to such a slow start. I was expecting to be terrified from beginning to end based on how scary they made the previews out to be. It has some super creepy parts that made you a little freaked out to be in your room the night of, but on the hole you were afraid for the last 5 minutes of the movie it ended and you were a little frustrated.

The actors: They were alright. I thought the female lead did not do a very good job of walking and talking creepy/ possessed. The male lead made me so angry the whole movie! All the problems could have been avoided without him. What a jerk, I would have for sure immediately broken up with him!

I’d give the movie 1 and a half stars because the previews showed the only real scary parts, and led you to believe the movie was a lot more scary than it truly was. Also a lot of questions go unanswered, and the movie abruptly ends. Maybe they are leading into a second one???

Let me know what you think!
