Still, we expect her to try – or to take some kind of action – but she seems to want to get on with her life. She´s had encounters with a ghost (or ghosts) since she was a child: an apparition by her bed as she sleeps, she can feel it breathing on her neck.īut she can´t just leave their house, as an expert (Mark Fredrichs) explains: the demon will follow her wherever she goes. He´s bought the camera because his girlfriend Katie (Katie Featherston) has been recently experiencing the titular activity and he wants to attempt to document the evidence. Micah (Micah Sloat) has just purchased a new video camera the film begins as he turns it on for the first time. That seems about right Paranormal Activity opens ten years after Blair Witch I´m not sure the moviegoing public could take more than one of these per decade. It´s the same setup as The Blair Witch Project, and the similarities don´t end there. The film begins by thanking the families of Micah and Katie what we´re about to see is purported to be real, “found footage” of the couple, who we presume from this opening are no longer with us. It´s thoroughly creepy though, and there are a couple boo! moments that might catch you off guard.

The film has been sold as the scariest movie ever made, with trailers showcasing audiences jumping in their seats and not a single frame of the actual movie. But really – is that all there is?Ĭonsidering the hype machine that preceded the release of Paranormal Activity, disappointment was inevitable. Kudos to writer/director Oren Peli for turning this unpretentious home video footage into an entirely watchable film, the folks at DreamWorks for discovering it, and the Paramount marketing team for turning it into a must-see event. “ That´s it?” was my immediate reaction as Paranormal Activity ended and, after a brief copyright notice (no credits), the screen went black.
