Katie Featherston and Micah Sloat in Paranormal Activity (2007)

Review by ejames6342

Paranormal Activity

5/10

Do Not Believe the Hype!!

Maybe I'm a bit jaded by all the horror movies I have seen in my life and it takes something really spectacular to scare me. Maybe I just don't get scared that easily anymore like I did with "The Exorcist" and the original "Halloween" or the original "Last House on the Left". I don't know. But I do know one thing -- this movie, to me, was boring. Oh sure, the last several minutes were not, but on the whole I found it not to be scary at all. As a matter of fact, I found it boring. It was so boring that my husband nodded off and I had to wake him and tell him it was "getting ready to be good". After doing this three or four times, I just let him sleep because I didn't feel it was going to be getting any "better".

The girl in the movie, Katie Featherston, was a really good actress and we should all see more of her because she played this part with all her might and tried to be convincing. But even she could not save it. I've seen many movies where "things go bump in the night," so the storyline was not new and, to me, the plot never really thickened until the last 60 seconds of the movie. Luckily I went to a matinée and only paid $8.50 for the ticket. I believe that if I had paid $12.00 for a ticket I would have demanded my money back.

If I were you, I would wait for a better movie to come along like "Shutter Island" which will soon be released.
