After hearing so many things from so many different people about Paranormal Activity for the last month, I was extremely excited to go see it. It was hyped as the scariest movie of the last 30 years and after hearing from people who have actually seen it, I was convinced it was true. If you haven't seen it, I'll tell you this... It's not true. In fact, it wasn't scary or even good at all.
The movie is about a couple who have been experiencing some "paranormal activity" so they buy and video camera and record their lives to try and figure out what's going on. The whole thing is recorded on a video camera like Cloverfield so if you get motion sickness, that may be a slight problem for you.
The pace of the movie is extreeeeemely slow. It's almost as if they made the movie boring and slow so that whenever something happened it seemed exciting and that did work but only because so little was happening and even those things weren't that exciting. I will say the last ten minutes were awesome but that doesn't make up for the rest of the movie.
Overall I thought this movie was a waste of time. Didn't live up to the hype, it wasn't scary, and it was very slow.
If you do want to see this movie, though, it did reach it's 1 Million demands to get a full release so it'll be in all theatres soon.
Also, the Paramore concert I was supposed to go to on October 2 was postponed until November 10, so I'll be posting about that then and also my review of their album will go up at the same time. I wanna do both at once.
