Because You Demand It: A Second ‘Paranormal Activity’ Trailer

Fans demanded Paranormal Activity be set free and allowed to scare them senseless. And now, they’re getting their wish and the film is being unleashed in a full wide release. Some say that it was pre-ordained from the start and that Paramount would’ve taken it wide no matter what. That might be true, but either way it’s irrelevant. The movie has been killing it at midnight shows across this great nation, and now it’s primed and ready to demolish the box office and continue to be one of the year’s biggest surprises.

With that in mind, Paramount has released another full-length theatrical trailer. This time we get footage from the film, rather than footage of test screening audiences being scared. We are witness to a better view of the film’s story. Katie suspects that her home is haunted by a demon. Her boyfriend Micah is humoring her by setting up a series of video-taped investigations to find out if she’s really being tormented by the supernatural, or if she’s crazy. Shaky-cam pandemonium ensues.

Behold, the second full trailer. Paranormal Activity is in theaters nationwide now.

  • this movie was okay, but i think it would be more effectively watched at home. audience noise ruins the suspension of disbelief.

    Movie was entertaining, original and frightening. There is a backlash growing among some of the more imagination challenged viewers who require blood, guts & CGI to enjoy their movies. This movie is old-school a-la Hitchock - lots of anticipatory scenes which build tension among those who get into it but comes off as boring to those who don't understand why the movie isn't laden with special effects and monsters.

    Still, I have to agree - why on earth are they showing the final scene in the trailer, and a scene from the original ending which isn't in the movie? The original trailer from 2007 is by far the best - shows very little but gives you a good idea of what the movie is about.

    If you're into classic suspense/horror, don't listen to the people complaining about how 'boring' it is, you'll enjoy it. If your idea of a good movie is lots of gore & special effects, don't waste your money, you'll be disappointed.
  • Ahh I guess movies like these aren't about the endings but its all about process!
