LRA writes: Have you ever watched a trailer and had that one scene, that one shot that made you go "Wow, that was cool!"? Or maybe there was something you saw that stuck with you, something that for some reason was in the back of your head and despite how insignificant it was you were waiting for it to show up in the final cut of the film. But when you watched the movie that scene was nowhere to be found or has been altered in a significant way. Well, that is what the Tractor Tire Award of the Week is all about. We try to track down those scenes that didn't make it into the final version of the film and make sense of them. Where in the film was it supposed to be? Why might it have been cut? Why has it been changed? We may not always have the answers for you but at least you will have your piece of mind and know that you aren't crazy. So, this weeks award goes to Paranormal Activity 3!
While appearing on The Evolution of Horror podcast, Jason Blum confirmed Christopher Landon will develop the next Paranormal Activity movie.
FYIG - Since each new movie in the series is not in chronological order, it can be difficult to piece together all the pertinent information obtained by all the films. After a marathon of every Paranormal Activity film and side research on the films, I have created a timeline-style summary of the movies for your convenience.
There's sure a good mythology here, but it's a shame Paranormal Activity is such poor cinema.
Jeremy of We Got This Covered wrote, "Catfish directors Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman take their stab at the Paranormal series with the third film that plays out as a prequel, happening years before the creepy events of the first two films. Paranormal Activity 3 does nothing to separate itself from the previous two films. It follows the PA formula to the last second, resulting in the worst film of the bunch. Its scares are less scary and the story is transparent. All it does is peak at the roots of the demon-stalked family and offer more jumps that can be achieved by using household products."
Well...I haven't seen any of them. My son keeps telling me I need to so I kinda want to. I may have to get them all and just sit down and watch them during the day by myself because if it's one thing I do know for sure....my husband won't see anything even close to creepy much less something like this.
