Paranormal Activity – A Low-budget Feature Film That Is Freaking Out Americans Moviegoers
The other day when I was at Noel home troubleshooting his laptop, he introduced to me a current low-budget horror movie that is freaking out American moviegoers. The title of the movie is Paranormal Activity.
A total of US$20,000 was used to produce this film and during it initial screening in college theater, it was such a hit that Paramount Pictures buy over the rights to screen the film in cinemas all over the US.
Synopsis:
A haunted house makes no secret of the fact it is not pleased with its new tenants in this independent tale of supernatural horror. Katie (Katie Featherson) and Micah (Micah Sloat) are a twentysomething couple who’ve just moved into a new home in San Diego, California. Katie has an interest in the paranormal and believes that malevolent spirits have been following her since childhood, though Micah is not so easily convinced. However, after several nights of loud noises and strange happenings, Micah starts to agree with Katie that some sort of ghost may have followed them to the new home. After a paranormal researcher tells the couple he can’t help them, Micah decides to take control of the situation and sets up a battery of video cameras so that if a spirit manifests itself, he can capture its behavior on tape. Once the surveillance cameras are in place, Katie and Micah bring in a Ouija board in an effort to talk to the spirits, a move that deeply offends the ghosts. PARANORMAL ACTIVITY was the first feature film from writer-director Oren Peli.
I bet this film will be a hit just like how Blair Witch Project makes moviegoers silver with fear after watching it. I hope Paramount Pictures/Sony Entertainment will screen the film here in Singapore as I can’t wait to watch it.

my fondest memory of the blairwitch project:
i was 13, my family had just moved to calgary alberta, canada. after much persuading, my dad took my brother (11 at the time) and i to watch the movie in the cinemas. i think it costs like C$4.20 or something like that.
anyway, an hour into the movie, my brother turns to my dad and asks “when is the movie starting?”
LOL.
update: i JUST watched the video.
conclusion: those folks won’t last a DAY at tekong. LOL!
Tekong is nothing… lol… I have experience worst
Ummm. The house is not haunted. Have you even read the synopsis right? The girl has a demonic presence around her wherever she goes. It’s not the house. If it was the house, the plot would have lasted 5 minutes. Pick up Phone. Call movers. Pick up phone. Call taxi. Leave. The end.
If you read the synopsis I have written in this blog, you should know that I mentioned, “Katie has an interest in the paranormal and believes that malevolent spirits have been following her since childhood,”
