Halloween Horror Countdown: Paranormal Activity

(I don't think the ghost is here to tell you the good news)

A young couple begin to experience supernatural occurrences in their home and document their experiences. Naturally shit escalates and the couple begins to wonder not if their home is haunted, but how evil is it.

The indie that kicked off an entire franchise that we're now kinda of tired of, (Just like Saw) Paranormal Activity  reignited the found footage horror film genre. How it's different from today's saturated subpar genre is that it doesn't have any shaky cam. Instead a majority of the film is shot on a stationary camera that is positioned in the couple's bedroom looking down the hallway. Believe me, that alone builds a lot of suspense when you can hear footsteps on the stairs but still can't see anything there. There's also not a lot of fake out cat scares in the movie but actual horror. Bed sheets moving, creepy ass sounds, people being dragged by invisible forces, all that fun stuff that has the hair on the back of your neck stand up.

So if your looking for a good real feeling scare from ghosts and not sleeping soundly by yourself for a few nights, check out Paranormal Activity. 5/5
