Paranormal Activity movie - anyone else see it? (no spoilers) - john dough - 10-22-2009
[spoiler=For those who have seen it]
I thought that the acting was nowhere near realistic and not scary at all. More like a little creepy, imo. I thought Blair Witch was FAR scarier and more like a documentary of things going very, very wrong.

Was it worth ~90 minutes of your time?

That's the name of the movie-- Paranormal Activity?

I thought it was OK, not that bad. It was interesting to learn that the movie was shot in 7 days with a $15,000 budget.

It also grossed 19.6 million in ticket receipts last weekend. Not a bad return.

....the 'quality' of the filming supposedly isn't great....the movie studio was going to reshoot with a bigger budget but decided to release 'as is,' so if you don't like bad lighting, etc that comes with 'low budget' movies (in other words don't expect big budget movie studio film 'quality'), it might not be for you.....
