Does anyone plan on seeing "Paranormal Activity"?
I've been reading a lot about it. If it's really that scary, I'm not sure I want to see it. I'm kind of a chickenshit, ya know? Or do you think it's all hype?
I already have problems sleeping.

3. I have two friends that have seen it and both said it was scary.
Both of them have really shitty choices in movies though and thought Blair Witch was the scariest thing they have ever seen. So, take it with a grain of salt.

My guess is that it's scariness probably come from a bunch of jump cuts and that annoying habit horror movie have of making things jump out at you with the accompanying "startle music".

4. I was just about to say
That the unwarranted hype reminds me of that surrounding Blair Witch 10 years ago. I trust my instincts and will avoid it, just like I did with Blair Witch.
