Paranormal and Out

With Paranormal Activity 4: Unrated Edition (2012), we have completed the series. This one fits in pretty well with the rest, and I honestly don't have much to say about it.

Let's see, it starts with a recap of the end of PA2 - about the kid who gets abducted by his possessed aunt. Then we meet a normal family with a little boy. There are some strange goings-on at the house across the street, and the little boy who lives there keeps turning up in their yard. He's a silent, emotionless odd kid. When his mother has to go to the hospital, they take him in for a few days, where his weirdness gets on everyone's nerves, except their little boy, who seems to get along with him ok.

Then, the little odd occurrences get much more extreme, the body count mounts, and we find out that the house across the street holds a coven of child stealing demons or consorters with demons. See PA5. 

I guess this one was not one of my favorites, mainly because the family at the center just isn't that much fun. These movies always have a lot of just hanging around, people filming parties or security cam footage of people living their lives. In this, the dad was estranged from his wife and sleeping on the sofa a lot of the time, which isn't that interesting on security cam.

But it was an interesting series, both in terms of the found-footage style and of the overall mythos. And they make Ms. Spenser happy, so it's all right with me.
