Look. No movie is scary unless, to some extent, you want to be scared. So for you people who are brash tough guys and insist that nothing can scare you... you're right, this isn't going to be scary. But you're going into the movie with the wrong mentality for a horror flick. Of course it's not real, it's just a movie, but you have to be willing to suspend your disbelief and buy into the premise somewhat instead of viewing it from a totally clinical perspective and checking off a list of all the things that couldn't really happen or aren't cinematically perfect. That kind of mentality only contributes further to filmmakers resorting to cheap gimmicks and "unexpected shit jumping out at you" scare tactics to try and get some reaction from everyone.

^I completely agree, trust me, I was on the edge of my seat most of the movie. Def. one of the best scary movies I've seen in a long time.

I haven't seen it yet. I just get tired of all the hooligans who come out of the woodwork to swing their dicks around about how nothing can scare them, when in actuality they're doing it wrong. I feel sorry that people like that will waste their money on a movie ticket, and the only satisfaction they'll get out of it is a boost to their e-peen on a message board.

lol, indeed
10/20/2009 2:34:44 AM
I think I'll try and go see it. maybe

10/20/2009 3:21:58 AM

10/20/2009 5:31:18 AM

10/20/2009 9:38:24 AM

^Yea dude, I totally agree. Lets go watch Crank 4: Man Without Borders and talk about how stupid it was, because it's just so stupid.
10/20/2009 1:08:04 PM
this movie suckedcomplete joke and waste of money.save your dollars and wait for it on TPB or $1.50def. not worth my time last night, two thumbs down.
10/20/2009 5:37:24 PM
completely agree.This movie has ZERO originality and was just boring.
10/20/2009 6:11:51 PM
Interesting note, as of last night, not even a week into the nationwide-distribution, Paranormal Activity had 35mil in the box office off a movie that took 15k to produce. What it pulls in over this second week we'll have to see, but it's a very nice revenue indeed.

I liked it. Wasn't scary, though. More interesting than anything.
10/20/2009 11:35:11 PM
i loved it and thought it was scary. i thought the dude in the movie was an insanely good actor. if it was any less real looking all of the scariness would have gone right out the window.
10/20/2009 11:37:01 PM
I liked it. Laughed more than screamed though. there were some pretty freaky parts though
10/20/2009 11:41:21 PM
It was pretty god damn funny and entertaining. It made me feel sick though, since we sat near the front. Camera work a lot like Cloverfield. Guess that's what I get for making fun of the girls who moved because they were too close and would vomit
10/20/2009 11:45:33 PM
^ lol my neighbors are making all kind of weird noise. ugh
10/20/2009 11:47:21 PM
haha, you certainly live around some strange people. every other day you have a new story to tell
10/20/2009 11:48:30 PM
ill tell you whatdespite being absolutely taken out of the movie by a theater of talking, laughing stupid peoplei'm a lil creeped out right nowcourse it could be the fox that just stared me down outside
10/24/2009 2:46:43 AM
I'm kind of sad that the general audience that everyone is seeing it with is full of such idiots. With a psychological thriller it's almost impossible to get the full effect of the movie if you go into it with a negative mindset (of course, a lot of that is just tough guys around here). This worsens when you get the kind of douchebags in your theatre that negate fright with laughter and attempts at undermining the film, which just throws everything off. The crowds that went during the 12-threatre showings were pretty dedicated horror fans, and it was something they were looking forward to enjoy. It really makes a difference.
10/24/2009 3:02:35 AM
pretty muchi mean i can deal with talking during most moviesbut in a movie that relies on quiet and tension build upnaw they killed italthough the two girls who ran screaming out of theater kind of made up for itbut not really
10/24/2009 3:06:36 AM
awww see i would've totally scared myself to death...before the movie even started. ugh scary movies are my pleasure and simultaneously the bane of my existence.
10/24/2009 3:11:53 AM
