...and punched in the face?!?! damn... so what you're trying to say is, you didn't like it. ;)

Well, you know what they say; "an opinion is like an asshole, we all have one and they all stink." (I'm not really sure who "they" are, but I f*cking hate em' for being right all the time!)

Paranormal Activity
 

i was pretty surprised when i found out that paranormal activity was a low budget movie. why cant other good independent movies out there wasnt as good as paranormal activity?

im pretty sure there are a few indie movies out there that are just as good or even better, and some people just wont know cus its an independent film

my list of good independent films i liked and would like to see:
The Blair Witch Project
In the Company of Men
The Evil Dead
Donnie Darko
Chain Letter

And don't forget... Dark Remains. ;)

...I just caught the non-theatrical ending for this movie and it was as mediocre as the one I saw in the cinemas. I just can't think of a good way to end this film...

Katie wakes up and finds a note on the bed.

"Sorry. Good luck.
Goodbye forever.
-Micah.
P.S. I did BUY the Ouija board."

Sounds feasible. I've dumped girls for more insignificant reasons than demon possession... but I have seen the dumping process bring out the devil in some women. If Micah wasn't so p*ssy-whipped, he'd have walked when Katie put on that 20lbs only six months after they started dating.

I think I would have ended it like this: Micah looks for Katie downstairs in the dark. His body is flung up and hits the camera, knocking it over. Katie lumbers in and drags Micah to a blind-spot in the hall (just outside the bedroom door) and slowly dismantles him. Camera switches to dash-cam of police cruiser with radio chatter about "domestic disturbance". Squad car stops in front of house, with front door in full view. Police enter, ruckus ensues and one officer crawls out crying and holding a bleeding face. Silence apart from gurgling cop. Katie comes ripping out the front door with officer in pursuit. He fires and hits her in the back of the head which sprawls her out over the cruiser's hood (face cracks windshield for effect). Her eyes roll up into her head and slowly a smile appears in the corner of her mouth. Auto dash cam loses focus and screen goes black. Case number and date pops up in plain white text... no credits.

PRESTO!!! A good ending!

I have read that some people love this film and some people hate it. I have seen the posters and all the quotes of opinions and i have to say that i am amped. I have not seen a preview to this and i will wait until it it is actually released to cinemas in early december here.....

Who needs Decepticons, CGI or motion-capture when you've got slamming doors, billowing sheets and a hand-held camera?

Paranormal Activity has passed the $100 million mark at the U.S. box office, making it, dollar for dollar, the biggest cinematic success story of 2009. It has also become the top grossing "R" thriller of the past decade.

Sure, it's no Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen-size $400 million, but Michael Bay's special-effects extravaganza required at least $200 million to make everything go boom.

Paranormal Activity, which features five unknowns and a demonic presence, cost $15,000 to make. That's T-H-O-U-S-A-N-D.

The goosebump-inducing (albeit a tad overhyped) horror flick spent its opening weekend playing in 12 theaters total, before hurling into wide release on Oct. 16.

The film-masquerading-as-found-footage is also the fifth-highest-grossing R-rated film of '09, trailing only The Hangover, Inglourious Basterds, District 9 and Watchmen—and only $19 million separates it from the No. 2 spot.

"What is truly amazing about Paranormal Activity is the depth of commitment from fans who demanded to see it," said Paramount Pictures chief executive Brad Grey. "All of us at Paramount are proud to have been involved with his revolutionary project."

brilliant movie.

should be used as a tool to teach fim school

a textbook example of effectiveness without excess.

Hahahhaa... Autistic memory?
