They find a Journal of spells which isn’t too helpful. They actually don’t get killed, but they do find a bunch of stuff and bring it home to look at. I’ve only used it in two previous reviews, and the “Well, they’re dead” joke is feeling old. Instead, they sneak into her apartment to find out what is going on. …Yeah, they just drop it and forget about that fact. But wait, our…heroes recorded her doing weird stuff after that, so they have evidence of his innocence! They suspect Oscar, that friend, cuz he left her place not too long before she died. That night, Anna is found dead and police swarm her place. I suppose this sort of place is different from the typical stuff we see in these films, but with the typical banter, it’s hard to really care., you know? It’s the middle of the afternoon as I type this, so I’m not tired, if that is what you’re thinking. We have a bit where a little kid, the brother I think, knocks on Anna’s door to piss her off, and it’s just annoying and pointless. The next day, we have more banter that almost seems important, but really isn’t. Looks like a Mannequin from my angle, but we’ll see. Well, something creepy is gonna happen soon.Īfter even more annoying banter (and I really mean annoying), they accidentally spy on Anna and see her painting something on a girl. They see one of their friends leaving her apartment, but they think nothing of it. Thankfully, something happens as we found out about his creepy neighbor, Anna. Where is that “change of pace” I keep hearing about? Dumbass banter is dumbass banter, no matter what the setting is. Even the standards of these movies, this banter and stuff is getting tired. He acts all dick-ish and annoying, so I really can’t care about anything that happens. We’re at home now, and they are having a party with Salsa because they are Latino and we need to be told that via Stereotypes!Īfter some pointless scenes, Jesse, our “hero” introduces us to his neighborhood. Not gonna pull out the pic again but…EXPOSITION! “Mom would’ve been proud to see you graduate” Are found footage movies just an excuse to have dumb banter? Whatever, I’ve seen worse. The movie opens at a High School Graduation.Īfter the most cliché speech I’ve ever heard, we get some banter with this kid and his family. Gotta keep up with my own continuity, you know?) (Yes, the demon is letting me do this, cuz if you recall, he asked me to do it. This, is Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones Let’s see how the first film of 2014 fares this time. Guess I’ll have to shut up and start it, and I’m gonna do that. I don’t get it either.Īs long as it’s better than the 4th one (you just need to make sense to be better), I think this won’t be too bad. Doug Walker was not kind to it, and he sort of liked the 4th one. Most would agree it’s nothing amazing, though. Some thought it was an interesting change of pace, that managed to be slightly better than the lesser installments, while some hated it. It’s a spin off that is set before the first one (So before 2007) so chances are, it wouldn’t be too special compared to the other films. Speaking of being skeptical, I’ve heard…mixed things on this one. Yes, I will review it but at this point, I’m skeptical. A pointless spinoff released in January (The infamous dump month) and the the 5th film pushed to 3 years later? Dang! I mean, the 5th entry was pushed all the wya to October of this year. I’ll just say I have had fun mocking this series, while also praising it when it does something right. I’d go over my thoughts on the other ones, but it’s a spin off, so It has nothing to do with anything. Besides, this review has been delayed by a full year, thanks to my problems last year. I really don’t want to, but I suppose I must at this point. So I was kind of required to review this new spin off film once it came it. Well, I have reviewed the main 4 Paranormal Activity films. I suddenly miss the days of doors opening and closing…
