i've read that lots of instances of people seeing ghosts is just hallucinations due to gas leaks.

This movie did so well in the 13 test theatres that it's going nationwide after over 1 million people "demanded" it on their website (it's a marketing feature).

So yea, go and demand it for your town or whatever... I'm not sure if nationwide means a normal distribution or if it's just major theatres.

This movie looks funny as hell

10/10/2009 5:46:38 PM

It was scary.

10/15/2009 12:43:46 PM

where/when is it playing?

10/15/2009 12:44:30 PM

at midnight in raleigh. google it.

10/15/2009 12:49:22 PM

I was hoping it was secretly playing somewhere that wasn't on the other side of Raleigh and not at midnight.

10/15/2009 1:04:33 PM

it's also playing at Southpoint at 10!

10/15/2009 1:34:40 PM

I'm going to see this tonight if my date doesn't back out on me! Then Where the Wild Things Are tomorrow or Saturday!

10/15/2009 1:49:07 PM

I don't like horror sons.

Is this horror son?

10/15/2009 1:50:12 PM

^pussy

10/15/2009 1:55:46 PM

That didn't answer my question son.

Also note that I simply don't like it, I'm not saying that I can't handle it. Although I can say I would never try to "handle it" unless someone I liked wanted me to go. Then I'd go for them.

10/15/2009 1:58:03 PM

If you don't like horror, dude, this isn't the movie for you.

Not in the slightest. Unless, for some reason, you don't include "psychological horror" in your definition of horror. This isn't bodies being ripped apart and demons clawing at your face out of the bushes, it's a slow, creeping, psychological horror--the kind that's worse when you're not entirely sure what happened.

But yea.

10/15/2009 5:56:14 PM

I'm going to see it tonight if my date doesnt back out onme!! I'm soooo cited!

10/15/2009 5:57:11 PM

are you expecting him to?

10/15/2009 5:59:21 PM

you must be 1. desperate 2. ugly 3. both

second time you have told us.

10/15/2009 5:59:27 PM

^my date is a girl. and I'm none of the above. But I think all of us here know that you're an asshole.

10/15/2009 6:27:22 PM

im gonna try and catch this this weekend, hate that i have to drive all the way to southpoint though

10/15/2009 6:27:40 PM

opens at north hills this weekend, ill be ther

10/15/2009 7:00:55 PM

So why the hell is this movie so scary? Now i want to see it. I do like the psychological horror. The new movies nowdays with freaky stuff just dosen't scare me any more.

^Fucking agree with you Mantis. I've been a classic horror fan for a long time, because most of the stuff that flows out of hollywood these days isn't even vaguely scary to me--and no, I don't think things popping out counts as horror--shock and surprise are not elements that require any real depth. So yea, I didn't think I'd ever be as scared by Paranormal Activity as I actually was.

Granted, it's not a Hollywood movie. Paranormal Activity was filmed in 2007 on a Festival circuit at an incredibly low budget. They do not achieve their horror with any cheap gimmicks.

10/15/2009 8:29:34 PM

hope it isn't like the Blair Witch Project

10/15/2009 8:33:34 PM

It is in that it uses the style of filming heavily popularized by the Blair Witch Project.

Except it's effective and scary.

10/15/2009 8:34:52 PM

What is so damn scary about it?

10/15/2009 8:53:19 PM

Save your money. And if you actually get scared during this film you need to be bitch slapped...

10/15/2009 9:21:05 PM

i'll give anyone here a million dollars to watch this with ambrosia and then spend two solid hours with her after the movie

10/15/2009 9:43:36 PM

^^Are you kidding? Either you be trollin' or you are a hollow creature.

10/15/2009 11:23:49 PM

bump-o

10/15/2009 11:46:38 PM

i too want someone to explain what makes this so damn scary

10/15/2009 11:51:30 PM

computers

10/16/2009 4:00:31 PM

i am so curious right now.


but i dont respond well to scary movies

10/16/2009 4:21:05 PM

im going to the midnight showing tomorrow, so ill report back

10/16/2009 5:46:36 PM

I would like to see it but I'm sure I wouldn't be able to get through it. I'm awful with scary stuff...even though I love watching Ghost Hunters and going to Haunted Houses.

10/16/2009 5:49:37 PM

you could hold on to George

10/16/2009 5:50:32 PM

Danny, what the fuck? Chill out. His name is Zach. I don't know why you're going to make a big deal about this. Just simmer down.

10/16/2009 5:53:00 PM

What happened to George?

10/16/2009 5:53:24 PM

Zach Hanson???????

10/16/2009 5:53:31 PM

haha I wish.

btw it's Zac Hanson...there isn't an H after the C

10/16/2009 5:54:02 PM

whatsup sons

10/16/2009 5:58:25 PM

I'M SO STARTLED!

[Edited on October 16, 2009 at 6:00 PM. Reason : inspired by Joie, for some reason.]

10/16/2009 5:59:34 PM

I saw this shit last night.

It's fucking retarded.

10/16/2009 6:02:30 PM

wtf! you are delusional.

10/16/2009 6:03:23 PM

ITT We begrudgingly admit that Netstorm was fucking right about Paranormal Activity going nationwide and making a ton of money.

10/20/2009 1:47:23 AM

went to north hills this past weekend, sold out as we were walking up, will be going again this weekend with pre-bought tickets

10/20/2009 1:49:14 AM

It's the only thing I heard about on Monday.

And every single person went to North Hills to see it, apparently.

10/20/2009 1:53:29 AM

I, too, saw this at North Hills this past weekend

10/20/2009 1:54:02 AM

because its the only place in Raleigh playing it

10/20/2009 1:58:35 AM

^^ were you scared?

10/20/2009 2:17:21 AM

kinda sorta I suppose. It's a fun experience because you get conditioned to be more tense when the couple goes to bed, cause you know something gonna go down. The way it builds up makes it pretty tense at the end, but I like the ending as much. I jumped at several points but I was hoping it would be scarier. Would recommend though
