Initially receiving attention at Los Angeles’ Screamfest, the small budget independent film entitled Paranormal Activity sat on the shelf for almost two years until Paramount Pictures took the reins and edited the film’s conclusion.

Steven Spielberg is said to be a big fan of this film and reportedly had a hand in its final scene.

The main characters are few. Katie and Micah are a young couple having minor relationship struggles, but they are clearly in love and supportive of one another.

They move into a new home in San Diego, which they soon believe to be haunted. Katie later describes that she is a firm believer in the occult and that a poltergeist has been following her around since childhood, and possibly caused the death of her sister.

Micah is not necessarily convinced, so he attempts to make video recordings of any potential spirit activities that occur during the nighttime hours.

Eventually, Micah captures some curious and inexplicable activity on video. At that point, he is persuaded of the presence of the poltergeist, which he succeeds in provoking further.

A later meeting with a paranormal specialist proves unfruitful, when he leaves in a hurry, saying he is not qualified to help them with such an evil force.

As the movie continues Micah proceeds to aggravate the ghost in any way. Micah even decides to get a Ouija board to see if the ghost will begin to communicate with them. All of these activities lead to a dramatic ending.

It is very impressive that this simple, independent film could intrigue so many audience members. This shows that audiences are not only impressed by big movie budgets, but by the content of the movie itself.

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.
