Title: Paranormal Activity
Post by: Kermit, B. on October 12, 2009, 03:32:19 PM
It's that time of year for horror films.  Anyone else been seeing all about this (http://www.paranormalactivity-movie.com/)?

I saw a preview for it a few weeks ago and it looked pretty cool, but I've also heard some horrible reviews.  It seems like it's pretty much The Blair Witch Project, so if you found that scary, the same will probably apply for Paranormal Activity.  But really, why see anything other than Saw XIV?

Because the Saw series is awful?

I read something yesterday that mentioned that Danny Glover was in the first Saw (which actually wasn't too bad).  I don't remember Glover at all, but apparently he was the main detective.  All I remember was Carey Elwes' AMAZINGLY bad acting at the end.

I think his son died or something like that.  He was looking for Jigsaw and ended up getting to the room they were trapped in right at the end, or he didn't see it, or something.  I don't remember.  Those movies are terrible.

IN BEFORE WEEBS!

Saw this on Friday night.  I didn't think it was the scariest movie of all time like people have been saying, but it had it's moments.  There were a couple of really creepy scenes.  It might make it tough for you to sleep the first night or two after, especially if you live in a creaky house. 
On the bright side, I went to the theater on Western and got to hear 100 minorities yell shit at the screen like "ooooooo boy don't go out there" and "ooooooooooo shit" every time something remotely scary happened.

This is why the Uptown theater needs to be re-opened. I think I was 16 before I realized movies weren't necessarily interactive.

This film scared the living shit out of me. Although I saw it in Jordan Creek Mall in West Des Moines, so the minorities were nowhere to be seen and the comments were limited to "Oh my!" But yeah, I was downright terrified, and fuck the comparisons to that shitty, overrated Blair Witch crap. This movie was legitimately scary.

Yeah but those rankings don't really SEE the quality of the viewers. Like I'm an upright citizen, one fond of watching scary movies, and it terrified me. But those numbers could be inflated by the people who simply tagged along with friends but texted the whole time, or even people who went to see the movie more than once. I'll trust my own eyes, thank you.

I'm probably not going to see this movie anytime soon, but could you (in either a spoilery or non-spoilery way) explain why this is so terrifying?

If you want to PM me to tell me, go ahead, but be aware that poss. hje will have to be included.

It just has a very realistic feel to it, and the way it develops is really convincing. The way events progress from just creaks and bumps in the night that we all deal with up until the moment when you start to realize something demonic really is happening to these people just draws you in. Frankly it was the movie that gave me trouble sleeping, which to me is the kind of experience you want from a scary movie.

The computer rankings seem to agree. (http://www.the-numbers.com/charts/daily/2009/20091029.php)

Yeah but those rankings don't really SEE the quality of the viewers. Like I'm an upright citizen, one fond of watching scary movies, and it terrified me. But those numbers could be inflated by the people who simply tagged along with friends but texted the whole time, or even people who went to see the movie more than once. I'll trust my own eyes, thank you.

I'm probably not going to see this movie anytime soon, but could you (in either a spoilery or non-spoilery way) explain why this is so terrifying?

If you want to PM me to tell me, go ahead, but be aware that poss. hje will have to be included.

It just has a very realistic feel to it, and the way it develops is really convincing. The way events progress from just creaks and bumps in the night that we all deal with up until the moment when you start to realize something demonic really is happening to these people just draws you in. Frankly it was the movie that gave me trouble sleeping, which to me is the kind of experience you want from a scary movie.

SKO hasn't had this much trouble sleeping since that nightmare about having to hail a cab.

Saw this last week and was disappointed by it. It wasn't the scariest movie ever, not by a long shot. It was more of a creepy movie and listening to the noises. Not many scary moments that make you jump, maybe 2 tops.

I liked the change of pace as compared to watching the CGI orgy fests where they have to have something blow up every 2 seconds (Que up the most overblown trailer ever: 2012).

For 15,000 bucks it took to make it was better than 90% of the so called Scary movies that come out each year. I think i just wanted more to happen and to be scared more than it did. Which really wasn't much.

I didn't think the shaky cam was all that awful. When I saw Cloverfield it was bad enough to give me a migraine and led to me throwing up in the parking lot of a Steak n Shake in Peoria, but this movie didn't bother me at all. I'll just call you a silly nanny and wait for your retort.
