Paranormal Activity 3

Remember the sisters from the first two Paranormal Activity films? Well, they are back as little girls and will spook audiences again. The crafty filmmakers are following their famous fright formula because it works. It works because the families feel real and natural, and everyone has heard those things that go bump in the night and wonder what was that. The film pits believers against non-believers. The special effects are relatively small, but immensely powerful and eerily startling. It takes normal scenes and puts a supernatural twist to them. Do you believe it ghosts and witches? Are your kids' imaginary friends real? If you liked the first two, you'll probably love this one and wonder where the next one will take you. Alien liked the oscillating cam shots and the filmmakers fright tactics. It's the best of the bunch.

Alien gives it 3 "beware of Toby" stars out of 4.
