Paranormal Activity

Scary horror movie. The movie is about a couple who experiences paranormal activity in their house. Katie thinks that they are haunted by a ghost, and Micah doesn’t take her that seriously. Micah buys a video camera and insists on filming every thing, also their bedroom when they are asleep. The recorded videos show some interesting stuff, which surely can’t be regarded as normal activity...
This movie is kind of based on the footages from the video recording, which are taking place in the story. This actually gives some kind of realistic feeling of the all, just like Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield.

The unique concept of the movie is a huge plus. It differentiates away from the so-called traditional horror movies with lots of blood and gore, and instead uses other fear elements. Said that, some parts of the movie are too lengthy, despite the movie’s total length of around 1 hour 30 minutes. This creates somehow boredom.

There are several versions of the movie with different endings. The ending in the Norwegian version wasn’t that bad actually.

Rating: 4 of 6
