Last night we watched Paranormal Activity. I don’t know if its out on video yet. A friend of my sons had a copy he burned from “somewhere”. I hadn’t seen any previews for it so I wasn’t really sure what to expect from it. I tend to like movies shot in the homemade Blair Witch style.
The movie was full of moments scary enough to make you jump. I liked the fact that the characters were very realistic. The haunted young woman was very real. She was pretty but full figured rather than being super model thin. The man was a typical boyfriend trying to be all manly and protect his wife and home but was only making the problem worse by not listening to his wife who had been dealing with the problem for years.
I don’t know if its odd for a person with an anxiety disorder enjoy watching movie that scare her, but I do. To be a truly good scary movie I have to be at least a little nervous about turning the lights off after its over and this one did fall into that category. Hats off to the director.
Now as far as what I would have done if I was the characters in the movie. I would have taken more control of the situation instead of just being pathetic and frightened like Katie was. I would have found out what was haunting me long before she did and made sure it knew who the boss was. Its probably my religious beliefs that would have made me act differently. I am a Witch and being a Witch I know everything is energy. I am energy and the Demon would be energy as well.
