Paranormal Activity

In this acclaimed thriller, a young couple suspects that their house is haunted by a malevolent entity, so they set up video surveillance to capture evidence of what happens at night as they sleep. Their surveillance and home videos have been edited into the feature film Paranormal Activity. Ain't It Cool News says "All I can say is—believe the hype. This is one of the scariest films I've seen in years. And it's not just run-of-the-mill scares either. It's unpredictable, hyper realistic, and left me (and much of the audience) physically shaking." The New York Press concurs: "Paranormal Activity is great: calculated, subtle, authentically scary without being overtly manipulative. Better than Blair Witch."
