  • I think it was WAAAYYY too hyped. I have seen scarier kid's shows! It was boring and a waste of my time. I was really hoping to be scared. At least the 2nd one was FUNNY. I have a good feeling about he 3rd one though....

  • This movie, fucking blowsssss. Guy is a douchebag, girl is a bitch, the scares are too subtle. And as for making certain scenes look legit, it's called editing. Edit the guy dragging the girl down the hall out....speilbergs a genius. 2/10 and thats being generous

  • i was really scared after i saw it, but a few days later, i forgot =\

  • This movie sucks. It is overrated. It is boring and made up of 1/2 the film being still shots of an empty bed or a couple sleeping in a bed.

  • I thought this was boring. I jumped once, at the 30 second long ending.

  • i oundit boring, if it was real it would be scary but i feal in a fantast/fiction horror movie you gotta show a little more

  • The Shining was better then that he copied that? Looks like it 

  • Worst porn movie ever. Horror yeah Horribly bad. I rather watch discovery channel Ghost adventures, the haunting, Or damn the haunted one on animal planet. I just had to make my self watch it by myself all the way through. Nothing else can't say nothing more. Since people are really scared bout it. Watch the real documentaries. That film maker is a hustler hustler yall to get scared buy cheap pg13 porno

  • "wow you hype things to extreme" when its a bucket of crap don't waste your money guys you talk too much about nonsense

  • I don't see what people see so scary about this movie!

    The only moment i jumped abit was when Mika came flying towards the screen, and that wasn't even a scary jump, it was just a "caught off guard" jump.

    If people really are so easily scared then, what does Nightmare House 2 do to them? How would they react to one of the most scariest games i've ever played!

  • you see.. this movie is fricking good and would have awsome ratings but the media got a hold of it and a bunch of tweenie boppers and retarted teens watched it and cant appreciate the fear and suspense involved with this movie. Scariest movie i have ever seen and no movie has scared me since i was 10.

  • i honestly loved this movie, the only real part i absolutely hated, was the baby power and foot prints, the foot prints couldve looked a little bit better >,<

  • @ja2829 @ja2829 oh you non-americans always thinking our movies represent our real lives, guess what its make believe, and frankly its an indie film made for loose change that got lucky not everyone is gonna enjoy the low budget style and thats what we enjoyed with it, and look at the horror films that have come out of america in recent years, the genre is DEAD. dont generalize it makes you sound like an uneducated ass and a waste of a comment

  • @ja2829 I agree. I saw the movie in theaters and it was so scary, simply because the audeince made it scary. i then saw it at my house and fell asleep twice to it hahah

  • @ja2829 Lol its really sad how you make such a huge, generalizing judgment based off a faux-documentary, shitty movie. You non-american sack of crap ;)

  • @ja2829 Americans run this world bitch!!

  • @ja2829

    What is this?? A Brit making a silly generalization about Americans? Tis unheard of! People weren't scared because of the film, people were screaming because of the energy of the theater. It's simply part of the experience. I bet you that if you put most of those people by themselves at a computer to watch it, they would rarely flinch.

  • @muzik313 That is actually a really good point. i saw paranormal activity on dvd by myself nd ther wasnt much atmosphere, but went to see paranormal activity 2 with sum mates at the pictures 2day and the feeling was completely different

  • Just finished watch PA. It kept my attention but wouldn't say it was scary. I downloaded it so I am at my computer and totally alone and in the dark. Well except for the demon in my hallway mirror, It reminded me of when i was younger & went to see Amityville Horror 1977 showing my age. And being scared the F&$%@ out of me for days. Seems to be the reaction from this movie. But now that i am old nothin scary anymore.. lol

  • please friend me i love gh too

  • how the fuck is this movie scary? this movie is a pile of crap. it is by far the worst horror movie I have ever seen. paranormal activity is boring and nothing ever happens.

  • Comment removed

  • this movie scared the shit out of me

  • its an awesome film, I just bought it today on dvd. I'm not sure if i dare watch it in the dark on my own with surround sound

  • @jimbo222000 I DARE U

  • Amazing film, tho yes it was over hyped, still creepy and refreshing in an aura that rely's on gore and voilence to be 'scary'.

  • this movie was completely wack. i watched it last night, and honestly, i couldn't sleep the whole night, but it was still terrible. like just. bad.

  • u should be takling to the camra not to him i thoght u were telling us about it

  • Scariest Movie of the year? Like omfg I hated it I thought it would make me scream but it didn't

  • I was genuinely cheeped out by the move, sometimes startled, It was very good and succeeded to do what all horror movies strive to do, make me not want to watch, and yet it kept drawing me in. I thought it was very good.

  • First off the haunting in conneticut wasn't scary at all, plain and simple. This movie was definatly very creepy and it did have it's scary moments, but it wasn't as scary as everyone said it was.

  • this movie was shit i liked it but i didnt get into it until they put flour on the ground and you could see the demon walking on it.

  • This film is over hyped - creepy yes - but scary - not really. Its a film meme - but for the budget well made. Acting is a bit dodgy in parts to be fair. Plus the mechanisms employed so that they can't leave the house are a bit laboured. Just my opinion ^^

  • I honestly have to say that i didnt think this movie was that good, to me it just wasnt believable and didnt look real, and in some spots it was poorly acted. On the other hand the Blair Witch Project had me looking up stuff online to make sure that it was fake, you guys should review The Blair Witch Project

  • I actually thought they WERE a real couple. I love this film

  • The original ending is better than the alternate ending on dvd.

  • whats the alternate ending?

  • @shawnleezam7

    the guy is still down stairs after she walked down and strted screaming and she slowly walks up stairs and walk up to the camera and slits her own throat

    and i do think the orginal ending is scarier

  • I COMPLETLY agree with what they say about everyone should have seen it in theaters cause its a better way to get the full scarefactor. but I love the movie no matter wat

  • the reason it was scary is because this stuff really happen and i watch it online i turned the lights off turned my fan and tv off and that shit had me jumpin

  • Can someone please tell me what happened in the end, cuz when i ask poeple they just say the ending was really scary and they just dont know how to explain it

  • @Minifresh123

    SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    kate kills micah and then she jumps at the screen and they say the whereabouts of kate are unknown. I liked the one where she slit her throat better.

  • the chick gets taken over by the demon and throws the dude at the camera and kills him then it shows her face and its all messed up and thats the end

  • im 13 and i didnt think it was as scary as everyone was sayin. it was just the right amount of scary for me cus im a chicken lol. i just liked the way it was filmed. the sound effects made the movie. it was rlly entertaining.

  • I lovd dis movie!!

    i got me shit arond fr hours!!

    creepy a bit

  • 5 stars for you. Want more paranormal activity. Check us out this is real paranormal activity. Not a movie yet. Annie

  • it wasnt that scary! it didnt really scare me: not really at all! i've seen alot more scarier films than paranormal activity

  • The movie wasn't BAD, but to me, it wasn't really that scary, the atmosphere the same as Blair Witch, what do you expect. I was a little disappointed though, there was so much suspense and then just a sound, etc. I didn't even jump, I had my eyes covered for nothing

  • better than drag me to hell!!!!!!????!!

    god damn it these guys are stupid and have a horrible taste in movies. Drag me to hell was one of the masters of horror returning to his seat as a horror director.

    GOD 2/5!!!

  • @StarWarsFanUltimate

    omg drag me to hell is shit i mean come one its about a gypo who didnt get a benifit from the main lady!

    drag me to hell is crap didnt make me scared. are u 6. i was laughing all the way through it. a 6 year old would be scared

  • hahaha

    im not talking about the scariness, Im talking about the quality of the movie. It was sam raimi going back to his roots. You just sound like one of the teens who liked the movies like friday the 13th remake and the TCM remake. If you hated this you are likely a teen or not a true fan of horror

  • @StarWarsFanUltimate hmm we can see here that your name is starwars fan ultimate. ok. and i named my name after the Medal not the game. so its sad of you to think tha. and iv seen drag me to hell and every one hates it. its crap. friday the 13th is crap. andi didnt make me logo. my friend did. you dont know horror. drag me to hell. u think thats a good horror. please! Iv seen paranormal activity, and its good. your just a person who has a bad taste

  • @StarWarsFanUltimate this shit aint scary!

  • @davidgaudryluckins

    im not talking about paranormal activity im talking about drag me to hell and if you even took 20 seconds to read my comments you will see that i said scariness doesn't matter it is the quality of the movie. Horror movies aren't for teens who go to the movie theater to talk and talk until i want to shoot myself. Its about how good and believable the movie is. and paranormal activity doesnt cut it. but Drag me to hell is good because it dates back to evil dead and QUALITY!!!

  • yep you are a teen. 15 year old. And by the name of call of duty boys, and your logo has a z instead of an s(what are you a tween girl? or part of bratz?) When you compare age like you were saying. You just sound like a shitty douche who doesnt actually know good horror.

  • Shit did i just click a time portal back to the 80's?

  • 0:30 is wrong kate is haunted by a demon not the house

  • Who ever got scared of this is remarkably weird. Not a single scary scene. Very slow paced CRAP CRAP CRAP ending. Terrible just...terrible!

    My rating F+

    experts rating B+

    HOW THE HELL DID THIS MOVIE GET B+! its VERY GAY! OMG

  • well i think that this movie is much scarier if paranormal type things happen to the person watching it. the ending wasnt the best but in my opinion it was a pretty good movie.

  • to me its the was the way you went into the movie that made it scary or not if you go in saying its just a movie you wont develop a relationship to the characters and it just wont be scary but if you go in and tell yourself your about to have a good time and get scared its really makes it that much better

  • honestly it wasnt that scary, tho it made me take a little longer to fall asleep, but it wasnt close to the hype of scariness. probly because people who wer scared havnt seen many horror movies, and ive seen hundreds

  • Exactly. It was incredibly slow paced and boring. I wasted 90 minutes of my life.

  • althgough i did watch this movie at home i didnt think it was as scary as it was hyped up to be. i did love the movie though . it had a great story and ending but i never really got scared at all until maybe the last 15 minutes

  • well the thing about it (in my opinion) i think the movie affects you mentally i went 2 c it with my friend mary and she never gets scared (i'm talking about a girl who laughed at one missed call and grudge) anyways but during the movie she got scared really bad she couldnt sleep 4 a week and during the middle of the week she went a bit crazy because of the movie so she went to the hospital after that O_o (i was scared out of my mind)

  • @devilsclone505 omfg are you serious? i went to see this,i am 14,and i wasnt even scared,ill admit i did jump only at the jump scare at the end. i watch ghost stuff all the time though so its probally just me thats not very scared.

  • huh? i never saw this movie i dont even know wat its about i'm japan 4 gosh's sake anyways its probably my cousin cuz she's the only girl i lnow who's best friends name is mary so sry about that i gotta make a new account soon cuz she hacked into mine and now epople r getting mad at me for the comments she left sooo sry

  • I, wasn't scared until katie threw the dude and looked at the camera.

    but...the movie overall...just didn't scare me.(Im more of the "sudden scare" guy)

  • im 12 and i didnt think it was scary at all

  • @walkersparticus yeh same but seriously im a horror fan and seriously : this was a peice of shit!

  • Idk I just watched it and I didn't think it was really scary at all...

  • no you didn't, you haven't seen it at all don't lie.

    "I just watched it - I didn't think it was really scary at all" STFU.

  • I thought it was scary cause like kaitie gets scary when she's mad she was all like

    "stop usin that camera on meh!!! RAWRRR"

    and I was scared that she was going to kill me or something D:

  • SPOILER!!!! i thought it was scary when she got dragged out of bed. i laughed afterwards but it was scary!

  • i shit in my pants..after watching that movie

  • @shamama23 as if.....you aint a horror fan then! you want scary see the exorcist!

  • That movie sucked hard core. Nothing about that movie is legit.

    a young couple in a 4-bedroom house while one of them is still in college, so realistic

    Nothing is scary at all.

  • the way i look at those movies is "if I was in that situation, I would be terrified" Imagine in the middle of the night and your girlfriends gets pulled out of the bed beside you and pull away from you, wouldn't you be scared?

  • except I left before that part, because the movie was horrible. So that scene wasn't scary because it wasn't seen, because the movie was horrible.

  • @SkillatchiTheGreat FUCK YEH!

  • lol- zong, top right corner by "the shining cover"

  • sorry guys, but your movie taste and stuff is weird, you loved drag me to hell? that move was so shit :L. and paranormal activity, well, it was ok, nothing special, and not scary tbh :L

  • With every POV video, everyone dies -_-

    Cloverfield, Quarantine etc

  • in my opinion one of the things that makes this film scary is that when ur at home laying in bed 9 times out of 10 you will hear noises. now when u hear those noises, you are bound to think twice about what it could be.

  • really...

  • Ugh, i'm going to watch this tommorow, and the ONLY thing i'm going to hate, is the girls in the cinema who scream at fucking EVERYTHING!

    I mean, c'mon, what's the point? They piss everybody off, and you're only scaring yourself more.

    They fail.

  • looks shit scary

  • This movie is so fuckin fucked up tbh ,, i thought it was scarier than the fourth kind

  • im going to see it at the weekend cant wait

  • apparently there are 2 different vesrions that have just been broght out. theres an american one and a british on ebut the british one is supposedly scarier and im going to watch it on thursday so im kinda scared lol :/ i dunno why theyve done 2 different versions tho!

  • Because most americans can't handle being scared too much, they blame it on terrorists :P

    No but seriously, the amount of americans that have either attempted suicide, or even killed themselves because of fear, is about twice as much as in the UK.

  • I completly agree with blaming fear on terrorists....damn, arent we stupid, XD

  • The first time the movie came out was in 2007 and blahh blahh blahh got a cult following due to film festivals and was later seen by Spielberg. He wanted to be apart of it and re-created the movie, using the same actors and premise, Spielberg specificlally changed the ending, and therefore having 2 movies released internet wise and commercially.

  • OK so the version I just watched in the cinema is a Speilberg remake?

    I wanted to see the original $15,000 budget version

  • Most of it was, just the ending was changed, significantly better in my opinion

  • Ah OK cool. I believe there are 3 different endings after reading up on it.

    I watched this yesterday in the day and whilst I thought it was creepy it didn't really scare me.

    Quite ironically, given all the scary stuff happens at night, I was terrified when I went to bed last night, half expecting to be dragged out of bed and down the hallway LOL

    Every squeak and gust of wind......bbbbrbrrrrrrrrr lol The mind can play such terrible tricks when you've just watched a movie like this!

  • Ooh, okay, I only saw 2, i'm interested :P

    ...I watched the cinema version today with a friend, haha, i liked it, not scary, creepy yeah, it always felt like day time was like we were being saved from being scared, XD

    When i watched the internet version, the door slammed when i was sleeping and it scared the shit of me, hopefully that won't happen tonight... XD

  • lool it happened to me too, but i have to admit that a laugh when she was dragged out of the bed, steven spielberg ending was the scrarier

  • iff it ended her getting shot, its the original (Y)

  • the ending in the cinema is when she throws him at the camera which is steven speilbergs ending to the movie which i think is great

  • the movie was great so scary i watched it in a full cinema and everyone was so scared girls were like screaming at certain parts 10/10

  • Okay i think i just saw the ending you guys are all talking about and ya that sucks sh1t

    Try and find the one where she throws him at the camera from the hallway then smiles at the camera then her eyes roll back and her face dives into the camera mouth open.. pretty creepy...

  • I watched the movie at my local theatre last week and she stabbed him then threw him at the camera went over knelt by his body then looked up and smiled at the camera and then some demon effect happened and the movie was over and it said the police found his body 3 days later but she was NEVER found so ya...

  • the guy was really brave i think thats why he didnt really move cam a lot

  • I'm too frightened to go and see it!!

  • it was overrated crap

  • am of 2 go see it next sunday with my boyfriend so a will be so sceard

    x

  • great film. it felt real and was actually brilliant special effects. the fact that you never saw what was attacking them was great. The film boasted that less is more and it works. people and by people i mean silly americains don't know how to be scared any more with the shit of saw and my bloddy valentine clogging up the screens. genuinley affective, belivable and tense. The modern blair witch

  • i saw thiss movie in the theater and i realy didn't find it scary it was realy boring all the people around me were screaming hahaha

  • i have to agree, i was seriously bored the whole time. should have been called "disfunctional couple with a jumpy ending"

    drag me to hell which was a piss take, made me jump sooo much more loads of times as well

  • lolololol halfway thorugh this my xbox 360 controller rumbled ( i had left it on ) and it scared the crap outa me lol

  • all iv read online is good reviews, i thought it was awful so many different paths the story could have taken could have made this film so much better. it made me jump but no lasting effect.

  • ending was a huge dissapointment

    she accidently gets shot by a cop after sitting on the floor for 5 minutes rocking back and forth.

    i thought something was going to pop out or something would come to a climax.

    but nothing happened, it was just a abrupt ending with no NOTHING

  • Thats b/c you didnt see it in the theater in the movie theater they show the ACTUAL ENDING and it was at 1st scary but you know you have 2 watch it in the movies to get even more scared.

  • I love horror films - I've seen loads, and this really scared the shit out of me

  • not intependant financed by paramount

  • Watched it, lamest movie EVER... extremely boring.

  • THANK YOU!! Thought it was just me. There was nothing scary about it.

  • High five! Boringest movie ever, clips of people sleeping, clips of them arguing, and whoa footprints leading to the attic.... oh and she gets shot by the po po at the end........ *rolling eyes*

  • she doesnt get shot retard...it says the police found the guy 3 days later and she was never found

    Watch the movie first not just read coments you poser ahahaha

  • Oh the police don't shoot her at the end of the movie? Go watch it again you blind ass dipshit.

  • i have just watched this a yes she does get shot there are 2 differnt versions on the ending she stabs her boyfriend aswell

  • Yeah I wonder why that nerd guy said she doesn't get shot.

  • she DOESNT GET SHOT in 2 of 3 endings, she gets shot in the original vers but not in the spielberg rmk n the throat

  • What are you talking about

  • nothing, a reply to someone who agreed that the girl gets shot in the end who replied to me saying she does when someone else said she doesn't.

  • You're both talking about two different endings. Both are real, and you've both watched the movie.

  • I watched the 2007 version, terrible ending, great at the beginging though.

  • i personally thought the movie was just a whole buildup until the end then it gave you a stupid ending very boring the wife was pretty funny

  • the ending i saw was even worse.

    she accidently gets shot by the cops who come in to investigate a 911 call... i'm guessing she killed mika and when her friend came to check up she found mika dead and called the cops??

    the scariest part in the movie was the footprints leading to the attic

  • shitty ending, movie could have been way better...

  • @lisenbeeable did you really fill out the 10 hour survey to watch a movie O.o ???? i know where to watch movies free with out filling out worthless surveys

  • Fuck you guys don't have to act like total manwhore's saying, "Oh my that movie wasn't scary it was funny at most, lolol don't waste ur money." I bet you shit your pants at least 14 times during that movie. It was terrifying to me just because of the realisticness, and the tension. In the end it didn't end up scary but trust me, at the times where i was wondering what might happen, scared me. I just know some fags gonna reply to me saying "omg u pussy it wasn't scary and i wear huggies :)"

  • ...It wasn't realistic...at all and there was no tension. The entire movie had a door opening then Mica making a joke, and repetition until finally the "demon" possessed Katey.

  • The demon possessed her 4 different times in the movie, when she was in the back yard, then when he was trying to get her to leave in the car, then when she kills him. oh yh n that one time it just stared at micah then got back in bed lol

  • This is the way i feel

  • this movie sucked dick big time. Another example on how stupid people have gotten over the years

  • because the blood and gore that made saw "great " is soo much better

  • no cuz the movie wasnt scary at all. you dont need lots of blood and violence to make a good horror movie.like ya saw sucks but paranormal activity was even shittier. It was like 90 minutes of opening doors it had terrible acting none of it was believable and it was fucking boring. These blair witch rip off are getting so popular and they arn't even very good not even blair witch. Horror movies suck nowadays and its cuz of shit movies like this

  • I was laughing the whole time.

    Except at the end I had my eyes covered :)

  • could someone please!!! tell me the ending

  • she eats him

  • Uhm... really?

    That's odd. Or are you joking? lol

    I haven't seen the 2009 ending version.

  • believe me or not , looks like you will just have to see it for yourself ;)

  • the ending suked ass...

  • yeah it did

  • @MrTalkingturtle

    there are 3 endings (at least I think there are, someone please tell me if i'm wrong)

    1. She throws her boyfriend against the camera and attacks the camera

    2. she kills im and slits her own throat

    3. I don't know what the last one is

  • movie was funnier than anything else

  • THIS MOVIE SUX the ending is terrible it didnt scare me at all

  • i totally disagree, I watched this at home, by myself, on my computer, and I have to say that it was the scariest experience of my life.....i dont think i would have been as scared had i saw it in cinemas....good review

  • I'm with u there buddy

  • i really expected more from it being called "the scariest movie of the year"

    wasn't really that scary

  • I agree that this movie was awesome. See, horror films really don't need to rely on heavy gore or shock tactics; what they need are atmosphere, realism, and the imagination of the audience, and that's what Paranormal Activity has.

    I've been waiting for years for a movie like this to come out, in the same light of the 1963 version of "The Haunting", utilizing the lost art of omission. What the audience does not see or hear is a hell of a lot more frightening than what they do.

  • Yeah the movie just didn't do it for me...i felt it was boring dull slow.

  • u guyz r hawt ;)

  • wow i do not cannot belive how many people were scared by this movie.. to me it was nothing scary and kinda funny not as much as people say. idk i gues its just me it takes more than random bumps and footsteps to scare me

  • is the movie true....

  • its suppose to look real but it isnt

  • Just seeing these screenshots still gives me shivers. Thank you, Paranormal Activity, for scaring the living sh** out of me and making me pull an all-nighter becuase I WAS SCARED TO SLEEP.

    I can remember every minute of this movie, mainly because it was just SO good.

  • This movie is too lame. I mean horror isn't about gore and murder but crazy creepiness. This movie was so lame... the story was so unconvincing and the chick acted so retarded. What was so scary anyway?

  • in this movie i was expecting more to happen at the end but this is the first movie that has made me have to take off my headphones at some points because it's so intense (i watched it on my comp)

  • It scared the shit out of me

  • I think to many people equate gore and jumps with scares. This is more psychological in the way it makes you afriad so people over exposed to gore and constant noise and action prob wont get it.

  • I don't mean to be mean or an asshole, but how was this psychological?

  • I dont necessarily think the film was psychological, but the scares are more from what the film makes you think and imagine in your head rather than visual blood and guts gore like alot of films. Basically the film plays on your imagination rather than spoon feeding the scares.

  • Well, I wouldn't consider gore to be part of a scary film. I would say they are horrific in a matter that they astonish the viewer with a disgusting appearance but nothing more. To me this movie was more like a cheap rip-off of the Blair-Witch Project. No reality is expressed in this film; whereas the BWP is based on truth.

  • I didnt think the BWP is based on truth? Yea was a copy of the BWP formula but then most films copy off something else. BWP was a rip-off of The Last Broadcast and Ghostwatch.

  • Oh... it wasn't real? Sorry, Iguess I never saw it that way. I still think this movie wasn't that great though.

  • Imagine 2 ppl seeing it with the hole empty theater, Scary! (i did it)

  • omg me to LOL i was scard shit scaryist movie ever !

  • Pussy

  • you dont get pussy your some fat kid who has no friends haha and stop food shopin with your mom

  • ...wow. >.>

  • I saw it by myself and it was terrifying.

  • be honest people, this was scary for about 10 minutes throughout the whole film. i thought it was a waste of money, cheap and way overly hyped. i wonder if everyone giving this movie a good rating is on the payrole...
