So tonight we watched Paranormal Activity finally. I have to say that an episode of Ghost Hunter might have been more interesting than this movie. I think I spent more time complaining about the boyfriend being an idiot than I did wondering about the paranormal “activity”. seriously, is anyone as stupid or idiotic as this boyfriend? Who is as stupidly “macho” as this guy? Do these guys really exist that they are too proud to ask for help because “this is my house, I will fix the problem”. Come on seriously?
The other thing was the amount of nothing going on. I understand that you have to develop the story. But you know, there was so much hype about this movie that we already knew the gist of the story, we knew there was a very bad ghost (or demon), and we didn’t need to have about 70% of this movie. The only thing I got from all the boring parts was the fact that the boyfriend was a total ass.
Now, I know I gave the movie 2 stars on Netflix.com, but I was really tempted to give it 1 star. The only redeeming factor to this movie was that there were some really creepy moments in there. And the end? Creeeeepy. But I have to say the creepiness was too few and too far in between.
I think this may be the first movie I’ve seen where the beginning sucked and the last 5 minutes rocked. Normally it’s reversed.
