Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

adi_2002 A group of students go to a deserted mentally asylum in order to shoot any paranormal activity that is about to happen over there. Meanwhile John is questioned on a hospital bed concerning the events that happened over there and at the same time he wants to prove his innocence and that he had nothing to do with the death's of his friends. When they all arrive John has a excuse to leave the location in order to scheme some pranks to scare the others. They have no idea about this so they go and explore the sight and soon weird things happens and now they must find a way to get out of there and escape with life.I think the movie is better then Reel Evil simply because is more "soft" and it's close to Grave Encounters but not that good. The acting was OK for a bunch of unknown actors and for a low budget it came out something with quality against other movies with a crappy image acting and story.For a quiet night when you are alone this one goes well.

Biddleforpresident Not with standing the building they are using could not have closed in 1949, it too 1990's looking, the cell block for sure is too new for the forty's . the ending is just preposterous . Nice of whom ever found the "found footage" to edit all the film. Just a rip off of other films , nothing new here. And the plot ,.well it's bad. There's too many cameras , and how did they get there in a building closed for 60years . Where's all the pigeons ? Rats and other pests that thrive in old buildings,. Where's the years of dirt? Action starts way too far in the movie about an hour,. The so called cop interviews , lose perspective after the end is seen. Why the interview ? Why put blame on him, it's what's inside that your hiding you know this from the start.

Nathan Young I have no idea why this has such bad reviews.I found this one of thee most gripping, chilling films I have ever watched.Firstly this is a group of extraordinary, brave, young students whom embarked on an horrific experiment.My hat goes off to them, I would not have the courage to partake in such a dangerous activity.While on the subject of activity, this makes P.A look like Bambi.I am not sure if they are acting or if this is 1000% genuine, but if they are acting they are truly outstanding.Put this on your list of movies to see before you die.Would more than highly recommend for anyone to see.

Mercury Rapids Browsing the DVD section of my local supermarket today, I came across Paranormal Incident. Reading the cover notes, I thought, ooh, a new found-footage film for my enjoyment. It's a pity that the film turned out to be a little disappointing, despite its ambition. Oh, and the DVD cover erroneously titled the film as 'The' Paranormal Incident. It's just Paranormal Incident. Shame on the UK distributor! What we have is a found-footage film folded into a traditional movie. The sole survivor of a paranormal investigation is being interrogated in his hospital room as we are shown the camcorder and CCTV footage recovered from Odenbrook Sanitarium. Being the sole survivor, John is also the prime suspect in connection with the disappearances of his friends. As he tries to recall what happened, he is shown how the dark forces that prowl Odenbrook picked off his comrades one by one.The main problem with this film is the format. Is it a normal film or is it a found-footage film? The producers are to be commended for trying to take the genre in a new direction (as Eduardo Sanchez has done with the soon-to-be-released Lovely Molly), but the ambition outreaches the filmmakers' ability, it seems. While the acting is decent and the shaky-cam footage is decent, the 'regular' movie segments are quite pointless (and the climax is, frankly, stupid). The director seems to forget how many people there are in a scene from time to time, as there are more hand-held camera shots than people. On a couple of occasions, the 'found-footage' is being filmed by nobody at all, as we see hand-held footage of attacks from a third person perspective when there is supposed to be only one person (and the ghosts/demons/whatevers) in the scene. That bug-bear of found-footage, the pointless musical score, also comes into effect on occasion.That said, there are some good scares, but I felt that they should have simply made a regular found-footage movie without the pointless 'traditional movie' inserts.
