Poll: Paranormal Activity 2 rate it!

[Bell Wilson]

Okay i saw this movie lastnight (9-11pm) it only managed to freak out my bf more than me. i only had bits in the movie 3 times when i jumped when it caught me off guard when i was eating my lollies.

If i were to rate this out of 10 (10 being highst and 1 being lowest) i would say about 7/10 because i loved how they interlinked the first movie into the next (eg characters). They also incoperated more things happening either inside the house, especailly at day or night times. But it bored me when they did the whole person getting dragged into another scene.

The pool cleaner made me jump i must say i love how they put SOME funny bits in the movie.


Paranormal Entity was just a slightly better verison of paranormal activty

Just from what people SAY about I give it a -9001/10.

 

[Bell Wilson]

I thought nothing could be worse than the first ones "Evil chicken thing" and I was right, this wasn't worse, but it was just as bad, I should learn to say no to my friends...

Well, to me it was new and exiting, but then again, I never saw the first, so maybe my opinion is invalid...

I took my girlfriend to see this a couple weeks ago. I thought the writing was better, because the family didn't act like complete buffoons in this one, but I thought the ending was kind of weak. Then I was reminded that the plot of the second happens in there, and it wasn't quite as weak any more, but instead brought the plot of the first one further into question.

Overall, though, it was more of the same. Better done, and more immersive, but ultimately just more of the same.

Meh, the second time around was really just dull for me. Like kman and bob said, once you've been spooked, it's really hard to take it seriously twice. That and waaaaaay too much mystery was removed from both the first and second movie.

{Also, I hated how everything was explained for both the sequel and first film. For me, the only scary part about the first was not knowing why Katie was being tormented. Thinking that the demon was doing it just because it could worked very well in my opinion and helped sell the idea that it could happen to anyone. Now that we know about the possible family curse, there is a huge disconnect from the fear of something similar happening to anyone who just happens to catch the attention of the supernatural. Hell I actually feared for the protagonists of the first movie, even though they were asking for it. This time only the dog kept me interested.}

Yes it did have a couple of jumps here and there. Funny thing though; saw this with a few friends. All the girls jumped and screamed where they were supposed to, but the guys were just laughing at those times. Then the ladies also chuckled realizing how absurd that looked onscreen.

So anyway.....yeah. I give it a 5ish.

I was bored with the first one, put off by the unlikable characters and rooting for the evil demon thing at the end. From what I've heard, the second one is worse. I have not seen it and will not waste my money on it.

3/10 and that was only because the end picked up a little bit. Otherwise its more of a downgraded version of the first movie.
