The family. We were a strange little band of characters trudging through life sharing diseases and toothpaste, coveting one another's desserts, hiding shampoo, borrowing money, locking each other out of our rooms, inflicting pain and kissing to heal it in the same instant, loving, laughing, defending, and trying to figure out the common thread that bound us all together. ~Erma Bombeck

Paranormal Activity
This is by far the most horrifying movie I have seen in a long while. The camera work is all "home movie" style, but they have done a good job not making it Blair Witch shaky-cam. The minor and downplayed effects add tons to the realism feel of the movie. Thanking them families of the deceased characters doesn't hurt either. I am the type of person who will start a movie later in the evening than I should, fall asleep in the middle, and then have to scene select in order to finish it the next day. With P.A., I was wide awake and occasionally glancing down the shadowy hallway behind me with cold chills. Folks, I watch a lot of horror and thriller movies. It takes quite a bit to get to me. I fully dare you to watch this movie alone at night...
