just saw the trailers. not that scary. but when i went to the movies with my friends, i went to go see another movie while the other group went to see this movie. when i met up with my friends, they told me the movie was so scary and unexpected.
what are your thoughts? |

Yeah, I'm hyped for it too. I haven't seen a scary movie in a while, and I sorta dig the ones that involve ghosts, demons, etc. like that.

it may not hit theaters, & it probably shouldn't. most of the "hype" concerning this movie is entirely invented by the studio. but, i did go to a screening in chicago & i did see a few satisfied people. however, ultimately, i don't feel my theater (700+ people) was particularly impressed. the film moved from some very creepy & interesting staging or ideas, but ultimately fails in its execution: the acting is poor, the pacing is horrible, the film lends itself to corniness & absurdity. nonetheless, it's not that scary @ all.
if you want to support a feature murdered by the studio... go buy trick r treat on dvd or bluray, it's far more entertaining & even, in some ways, "scarier." |

Actually, Paranormal Activity is going to play nationwide now because it hit like 1000 demands or something like that. :P

My friend saw it and said that it was kind of boring at the beginning but the ending was scary.
 Still want to see it.

I was scared just because my guy friends were creeping me out. I laughed a lot throughout the movie. It was predictable and it was only good towards the end. Everyone in the theater was around my age and most of them were satisfied..  LOL my friend and I thought her leg was gonna get chopped off when she started to get dragged off the bed. Who else thought that too?

My friends went to the midnight showing of it and said it was not scary at all and a total waste of time. I don't think I'm going to go see it.

i aint gonna lie.. i went to see it in the theater last friday, it really was a disappoinment. It wasnt scary at all... just some things moving around and jumping out... other than that it kinda sucked. It was a good movie for a $7000 budget, believe me i give them props for that. i just dont believe it was voted scariest movie.

For a low budget movie, it attracted many people. :/
