Paranormal Activity

Let's just push both the movie and it's prequel/sequel in this section, let me clear this up first...

WARNING - SPOILERS

Better, lol
Let's discuss it, IMO, it was way over-hyped, the whole demon was weird, of course the perception that all demons are evil and out after your soul (which would be a waste of time, souls are everywhere and if one is too stubborn and hard to obtain they can easily turn the corner for an easier subject if we're going to focus on soul eaters or whatever else) fuels this series.

By the way it's going, there will be a third unless budgets weren't good enough this film. First one had more popularity because it was "fun" to scream at whatever occured. The whole startle effect reigns in this film and in the 2nd one, even moreso in the 2nd one because the demon (with dinosaur footprints) is a lot more active.

2nd one starts off 60 days before Micah's (spelling?) death and then overlaps the events of the first to show how it came to be JUST before the events of the 1st film, you'll see the opening part of the first film of her pulling into the house and seeing the camera for the first time, then time jumps again to the moment of the finale of the 2nd where it connects the 1st film.

The first film it's just the adventures of this couple who has a specified demon coming for her soul. The 2nd one is all about the child, apparently a family member in the past made a deal with the demon to get rich and had to offer up the soul of the first born son. Here's where the story kicks in and is all understandable. This film was as bad as I expected it to be, only reason why I went to watch is because my friends wanted a "scary" movie for Halloween. I warned them and they complained after the movie, don't worry, I did NOT brag or got all snotty because I was right (the whole "I told you so" is SO last year )

I don't want to spoil too much, but I might as well because this film doesn't even get a 5/10 rating. If you watched the 1st film, you know they will try the typical scare tactic, every night there's activity and probably once or twice during the day like the first one. They over look obvious settings like the 1st, and you can tell you're going to witness the demon's actions by the flat noise in the background and the certain fog sound effect (i would say white noise but it's not white noise effect). So of course the stomping etc, get used to it
