Here some short excerpt and summary you might be interest to read. Micah Sloat Death – Micah Sloat Death: Made for an estimated $11,000, Paranormal Activity follows the model set forth by The Blair Witch Project, utilizing non-actors, limited sets and a small handful of thriller moments to create a tense, if somewhat faulty, chiller. The central conceit of the film is simple: Micah and Katie (Micah Sloat, Katie Featherston) are haunted by a demon. In an effort to document their problems, Micah invests in a video camera and uses it nearly all the time. And that is how the first half hour of Paranormal Activity plays out, as an attempt to introduce the characters and situation to the audience. From there, writer/director Oren Peli slowly weaves in the scares, at first small sounds and eventually culminating in…well, that would be ruining it. Perhaps by design, Peli doesn’t allow either Micah or Katie to really develop as characters. There’s nothing to really tell the audience what makes them tick or why they’re actually together. It might not be completely necessary, though looking back at the classics in the horror genre, each have allowed their characters to become people as opposed to caricatures. (Blair Witch-this film’s obvious inspiration-is an exception.) Why does this really matter? Knowing and therefore caring about the leads heightens the impact of each scare above and beyond what we’d experience otherwise. Again, this may be by design. Not knowing anything about the two adds to the anonymity, not to mention the alleged “true story” nature of the film.
Katie Featherston & Micah Sloat in Paranormal Activity – Some movies are more of a shared experience than others, and that’s certainly the case with “Paranormal Activity,” a micro-budget horror flick about things that go bump in the you-know-what in a nice new home. It’s opening in select college towns, midnight-only showings, in a handful of theaters. The combination of the late hour and the horror-jazzed audience could make this minimalist chill-fest the new “Blair Witch Project,” or so Paramount hopes.
