Download “Paranormal Activity” Movie (DVD Quality)

Director:
Oren Peli
Stars: Katie Featherston, Micah Sloat, Michael Bayouth
Studio: Paramount Pictures

While settling into her new home, Katie (Featherston) is disturbed in her sleep by a mysterious presence. Her husband, Micah (Sloat), tries to ease her fear by installing video cameras in an attempt to capture the strange behavior on tape. Bad idea.

The found-footage story idea has served writer-director Oren Peli well, since Paranormal Activity has been buzzing for almost two years now. Paramount scooped up U.S. rights and scrapped the original idea to remake the movie for general audiences. No wonder the online scene has embraced the minimalist horror-thriller (it’s a zero-budget affair shot with a barebones crew) and the studio subsequently will focus their marketing efforts to genre sites, Facebook, etc.; in fact, check out the movie’s unique “Demand It” feature — essentially a contest for screenings to occur in your area. Elsewhere, according to reviews, unlike recent horror bomb Sorority Row, this movie features a protagonist (Katie Featherston) you actually care about!
