Re: Paranormal Activity

Re: Paranormal Activity

Paranormal Activity: Just finish watching it, now i hear there it originally came out back in 07, but they decided to change the ending.

Spoiler

In the ending i viewed, she killed her boyfriend and the cops shot her at the end, how does that differ from the other ending?

About the actual movie, pretty interesting movie. It worked really well because of the the hand camera style. The acting was good. I hated the boy friend though, really in a situation like that, would anyone really go out seeking to bother "it?"

Spoiler

In the theatrical release. She stands over him, then goes down stairs, there is a loud bang and scream. BF runs downstairs, there is yelling and a struggle. Then silence.....the the boyfriends body is throwing into the camera and I think the girl comes back into the room. Not sure if shes leaves again or it cuts off. Then it says that the BFs body was found 2 days later, and the girl has yet to be found.

After she throws her BF into the camera she kneels down by his body for a minute, then slowly moves to the camera and then its look like she was going to bite it and then it cuts off.

My wife

Spoiler

and

I just saw it and we loved it! Very well done and it does a great job of building up.

The ending we got was

Spoiler

Was she throws Micah at the camera. Does she kneel down and kiss him or what does she do when she kneels down over him? I think the one where she is rocking by the bed and the police arrive would have been cool too.

Re: Paranormal Activity

I just saw it and it wasn't a scary movie at all. The only part that was kind of freaky was when

Spoiler

they showed that exorcist woman that had symptoms similar to the girl that chewed her arm off... that was just weird

. Other than that, I was kind of laughing through most of the movie... mostly and I was laughing out loud when

Spoiler

Micah died in the end. I laughed because he was killed by his girlfriend and I just thought it was a funny moment... call me crazy

.

No offense to anyone who liked it, but I just think this was all hyped up. You gotta give em props though. They had something like a $15,000 budget, and they already made over $40 million with this movie.

Re: Paranormal Activity

We're all grown do you actually expect to get scared by a movie? I didn't get scared either, but I still enjoyed it.

I found the movie significantly more enjoyable than I thought I would, but I also found it pretty funny.

It seems 90% of their problems could have been solved by simply locking the bedroom door.

Re: Paranormal Activity

My roommates slept with their light on tonight.

That's just funny

Yeah, a lock on the bedroom door would of stopped the "demon."

I'm 33 years old and hardly even recall being scared by a movie, but this one was a little scary for me.......maybe not so much scary actually, but really creepy and suspenseful. Whatever it was, I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and was pleased that it was even better than I expected.

I think the reason it was scary is because these things happened in a typical american house.

Spoiler

lights turning on/off, doors slamming, hearing footsteps

Watching this movie I felt like this could happen in my house. Where as the Blair Witch Project was in the middle of the woods.
