Paranormal Activity

Paranormal Activity has been getting a lot of buzz over the past few weeks. It's been dubbed one of the scariest movies of all time. How sweet is that?

Obviously, I was intrigued -- even more so when I found out it was a low budget independent like Blair Witch. How low of a budget? Try $15,000. The guy who made it was a video game designer who had a few non-name actors and bunch of friends in San Diego help him. It was filmed on a friggin hand-held camera.

So how did it get huge? Speilberg saw that thing and freaked out. Guy was scared and loved it so he got DreamWorks (now Paramount owned) to buy it.

They're releasing it in select college cities tomorrow and mass releasing it mid-October. I actually have screening tickets to see it tonight but have to work. Get at me if you like want those.

Here's the trailer:
