This fifth installment in the franchise takes the hauntings out of Nevada and into Oxnard, California. Throughout Paranormal Activity’s 90-minute run time, you’ll experience a low-budget thrill ride that can only be described as exhausting and terrifying. Thankfully, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones provides just that. The noises that fill the couple’s horrifying nights get under your skin, and the possibility of what might happen stirs your brain. His cut-rate film is highly successful in both thought and execution: The film is scoreless, the editing is tight and the no-name actors are believable. However, at the screening attended, this did not prevent audience members from squealing and screaming to beat hell.ĭirector Peli has done what many considered impossible in a post- Blair Witch world.

The recurring time-coded bedtime sequences make this movie stand out as something special. Their reactions, concern and, most importantly, fear come across as completely genuine. Both Featherston and Sloat do an admirable job with a limited script and concept. While Katie’s descriptions of her past troubles and her current plight might prove boring for fans of the grotesque excesses favored by many modern horror directors, they will be refreshing for fans of old-school ghost tales. We quickly discover that guttural breathing and hovering masses have been haunting Katie’s bedside - her personal space - since she was 8 years old.
