Paranormal Activity 4

The other day I decided to make the daring decision to watch Paranormal 4 by myself. I had to watch it during the day though so I didn't scare myself at night to a point where I wouldn't be able to sleep at all for the next week or so. I also watched the other 3 paranormal movies last year during the year because I was bored. All of my friends had seen them so I decided to do it myself just so I can say that I saw the movies. Watching all of these movies I realized how scared I can get at a single movie.

At this fourth one I was legitimately screaming and yelling because I got so scared at certain parts. The pop outs, the effects, I was freaking out at a majority of the movie. Even though I was scared beyond belief, I was still very impressed with how the movie came out and how it was put together. The amount of pop ups and how they brought about the big curve ball about Hunter I thought was incorporated so well. I will admit that I liked how they used people that were not related to the family of Hunter because it showed that they were branching out, however, seeing that Hunter was adopted by this family that shows how the family was related. I wish that they showed us how Hunter ended up becoming a part of this family. I obviously know he was adopted, but when? Why? That's what I want to know.

Overall, this movie was really good, really scary, and very impressive. If you like scary movies, then this is the movie for you, but just be aware, if you watch this at night, good luck sleeping.

My favorite Director

I think M. Night Shyamalan is a wonderful director. You can all take a moment to laugh at me now....Ok now stop laughing. I'm serious! I think he really puts his heart into what he does and I've always seen that through his artistic view of things. He may not be THE best director in the world but I really appreciate his point of view. When he looks at a story weather he wrote it or not, he really highlights and saturates every beautifully artistic movement and sound. I've always tried to do this in my films as well. I've always noticed his use of fallow shots, and hey I agree its a movie things should move.  We use fallow shots to see where the character is going, we go too, what the character sees, we see too. It's a beautiful thing. He's been known to put a twist on things and every one criticizes him for it. Well, if they stopped being such cranky ex-girl friends and look at why or how or just began to appreciate what's really going on, then they'd understand it. Oh yeah and critics, hey its hard to make a film, you should try it some time.

Recently He has been writing and honestly as big of a fan as I am for him as a director, I can comfortably say I enjoy his writing more. The director of Devil (John Eric Dowdle) interoperated M. Night Shyamalan's writing perfectly and it was very pleasing. I hope that they'll continue calibrating  so I can enjoy more of what they produce. It's actually a really good movie; ranked number 37 in my favorite movies list.
