It was an admittedly bold choice to soft reboot the Paranormal Activity franchise with Next of Kin. Rather than continuing the story of Toby's history with Katie's family, Next of Kin introduces a whole new female protagonist, Margot, as well as a new demon: Asmodeus, who is based on a real-life figure in Abrahamic dogma. The new antagonist takes s...
While one could easily argue that theParanormal Activity films hit a level of diminishing returns with the whole found-footage conceit, abandoning that altogether did not fix the franchise. It almost feels blasphemous that Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension adopts a more traditional look. That’s not to say that a conventional Paranormal Activ...
Paranormal Activity 4 is forced to give some answers, which is both helpful and harmful to the franchise. It's less convoluted than The Ghost Dimension but suffers from many of the same issues in terms of story problems. The film examines the continued damage that a possessed Katie wreaks, with this time her neighbors getting caught in her orbit. P...
After the events of Paranormal Activity 4, the audience's interest in the series was dwindling and there was a need to shake up the formula. Initially billed as the first (official) Paranormal Activity spin-off, The Marked Ones tells a familiar story of paranormal events and possessed individuals but shifts the horror to a Latino community. This ne...
Paranormal Activity 2 faced the difficult challenge of following what was a landmark, groundbreaking film with a mostly complete story. The Paranormal Activitysequel would both have to somehow continue the events of the first film and recapture the magic that made the original so remarkable — all while telling its own, fresh, story. Opting to conti...
Oren Peli’s original film that started it all back in 2007, the first Paranormal Activity took what made The Blair Witch Project sofrightening, but amplified the horror in a truly visceral way. Rather than making the setting frightening, Peli brings the threat into the home in a relatable — and truly terrifying — fashion. Micah and Katie are victim...
While audiences were set up for a continuation of the story after Paranormal Activity 2’s ending, the franchise cleverly turns the clock back for Paranormal Activity 3. The third movie in the series looks at a young Katie and Kristi in order to chronicle the alleged origin point of all of this paranormal activity. The results are fantastic and newc...
