Review:
Five years after Hunter was abducted by a possessed Katie, a new family is victim to the horrors of a demon.
Alex and her family live in a suburban area in Nevada. When the woman from across the street falls ill, Alex’s family take in her son Robbie. He’s a weird little kid but he becomes great friends with Wyatt, Alex’s kid brother. The moment Robbie comes live with her family strange things start to happen in the house. Noises, moving stuff, the kids run around playing during the night, knives disappear to reappear barely missing someone…
Alex’s boyfriend Ben puts up the cameras on the laptops on everywhere in the house. One even has an infrared function. What the cameras show is beyond comprehension.
When one night Wyatt is taken with Robbie to his house, Alex follows them to find a young woman, Katie from the first movie, in there.
All these events lead to another disastrous finale for Alex and her family meeting the demon, who’s out for something valuable…
This definitely is not the best instalment in the Paranormal Activity franchise. It’s not until the final fifteen minutes a lot starts to happen and some cheap easy scare jumps don’t save this movie. By now the franchise has lost its momentum of originality and the newness is gone.
But of course I’m not going to say it’s still not scary as hell. But I’m afraid the sequels beyond this one won’t live up to the original story anymore.
