Paranormal Activity - Crap or Not?

[Millefleur]

Should I waste a couple of hours of my life watching this film, or is it worth it? Will I piss/shit my pants like all my old friends nearly did?

I saw it, it's okay. Suspend your disbelief for a while and it's quite enjoyable.

[Animavore]

Never seen it, but it looks like complete crap. If suspending your disbelief is something you can do (it's something I can do in most horror but not when presented like a documentary for some reason) then watch.

Crap.

[Millefleur]

Bollocks, well got it now so might as well give it a go.

You can always make fun of it. We did.

Well that was 1 hour 37 minutes and 42 seconds of utter shite. Spent the first hour waiting for something to happen and wondering how these two young people, one a student, could afford a gigantic house, cringed at the ouija board bit and the rest was just meh. Have had a year of 'OMG this film is soooooo scary' etc on facebook and at least expected to jump. Pfft.

[Trolldor]

It's a bunch of wank.

Rule one of scary movies: Check the content.
Rule two: Check the audience

If 1) involves ghosts - not scary, no matter what.
if 2) New age fans - not scary, no matter what.

I hate those flicks! They inevitably portray skeptics as irrationally closed minded.

[Millefleur]

I just really fucked me off, it was fucking stupid. The footprints in the flour, what the fuck were they, dinosaur prints? They're being haunted by a ghost dinosaur that slams doors and runs away like a pre-schooler? And the reactions too, if this bollocks could actually happen you would either put a lock on the door and sit in the corner in a puddle of piss or get the fuck out of the house, not sigh and go 'Ooh, I'm a bit scared' then go back to fucking sleep

[Mallardz]

I think it's bad but I would say watch it anyway unless you have something/anything else to do.
If you have a bottle of wine that's probably better.

i cant get into a scary or suspenseful if the plot isnt plausible but suggests a realistic threat. like when m. night shamalan in his movie "signs" made the alien invaders fatal weakness water. im sure nobody who's taken one course in biology appreciated that.

I was more pissed off with the series of coincidences than that, funnily enough.
