JonnoTheDev Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Watched this at the weekend. Not even remotely scary. I was expecting to be crapping myself for days. total letdown. The trailers show all the jumpy bits so you know what is going to happen. Anyone else seen it?

zq29 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I very rarely go to the cinema, the last thing I saw at one was Star Wars Ep.III - I find the picture quality poor, the sound quality poor and the people in there annoying. I just wait for shit to come out on BluRay. It could just be that both my local cinemas are crap though! I don't know that much about Paranormal Activity, is it Blair Witch style or something?

JonnoTheDev Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 I don't know that much about Paranormal Activity, is it Blair Witch style or something? Yep Was made back in 2007 with a budget of about $15k. Think Spielberg picked up on it and along with a viral marketing campaign its been put on the big screen. Took over $90 million on the box office. Not a bad return eh? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1179904/ Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/184252-paranormal-activity/#findComment-972721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Duh... I must talk Spielberg into doing this to the movie taken on my prom. It's so scary I've never watched it for second time.

premiso Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 I hate going to the movies soo much. Every time some fuckin idiot is on their cell phone talking or teens are there making retarded jokes or someone brings their infant kid, who when he starts crying, they do nothing about and stay in the theater. Then when you complain to the people at the desk they come in 5 minutes later and everything is quite for the 5 minutes they are there. Retarded, screw that I will wait for the DvD/BluRay. At least that way I can watch it in the comfort of my own home and not have idiots ruining the movie. Why pay $11 to see a movie and be stressed out when you can pay $15 to own it and watch it at home Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/184252-paranormal-activity/#findComment-973003 Share on other sites More sharing options...

waynew Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I actually liked it. Was something different from your usual run-of-the-mill horror/whatever. 8/10 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/184252-paranormal-activity/#findComment-973169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I went to see this at cinema and found it pretty good. Wasn't a 'scary' film but the ending gave me a good jump! Think it's the atmosphere that can make or break a film like this as well... When I saw it everyone shit their pants and screamed, so probably seemed a bit more tense!
