A truly independent film made on a minuscule budget, "Paranormal Activity" first created a buzz at Screamfest in Los Angeles, then languished for nearly two years until Paramount Pictures decided to pick up the project and slightly change the ending.
Steven Spielberg is said to be a big fan of this film and reportedly had a hand in its final scene.
The movie is based around Katie and Micah. Katie and Micah are deeply in love with each other, even though they have some slight relationship porblems.
The couple relocates to a home in San Diego which they start to think could be haunted. As time passes, Katie explains her belief in the occult, and suggests that a poltergeist has shadowed her for many years. She even intimates that the ghost may have played a role in her sister's demise.
Micah is not necessarily convinced, so he attempts to make video recordings of any potential spirit activities that occur during the nighttime hours.
The results are not what Micah expects. The tape shows a ghost in the home and Micah concludes that antagonizing the ghost is a good plan.
The couple eventually meets with a specialist in paranormal phenomenon, but obtain few insights. The specialist abruptly ends the consultation, asserting that he does not have the skill or ability necessary to handle this type of ghost.
Micah becomes more and more taunting with the ghost, at one point even placing a Ouija board in the room in an effort to open communications with the malevolent forces. Things continue to escalate until an abrupt and haunting climax.
The film represents a great deal of ingenuity, even if subdued, and is a great example of editorial economy that still manages to grip its audience for the duration of the story.
Overall I found Paranormal Activity very entertaining and quite scary at times. This is definitely a film worth seeing if you're in the mood to be scared.
