As a fan of “scary movies”  and a film maker I never understood the big deal with the Paranormal Activity movies. I understand that it was made with a very limited budget but as a film maker, it’s very obvious to me how they made all the special effects and what not. But it’s okay. I don’t have to like it. What I really don’t understand though is why people keep watching the same movie over and over again, when the only thing they change is the number in the title.

This year Paranormal Activity 3 came out. Yeah I predicted that last year already 😛 I saw the first two movies and they are pretty much exactly the same. And from what I’ve heard in the third movie is more of the same. Why won’t people just quit doing sequals and prequals and remakes already and maybe TRY TO MAKE A DIFFERENT KIND OF MOVIE?! I think that’s why people enjoyed the first PA. It was different. Now the franchise is just doing the same thing over and over.  It wouldn’t surprise me if in two years there will be a Paranormal Activity 5. It’ll happen. You’ll see! 🙂

Anyway. This Halloween I’ll just put on my movie elitist barrett and watch a good horror movie. Like “The Thing” (1982) or “Pontypool” (2008).
