The fourth paranormal film is
the worst of the four so far and I didn't think it would get any worst than the
third. It takes place some five years after the events of the second film. We
follow the family and we are meant to believe that a blonde kid is the weird
one who becomes friends with Wyatt. It's soon revealed that Katie lives across
this frankly but what makes it just plain baffling is that Wyatt turns out to
be Hunter. So let's get this straight that Katie puts Hunter up for adoption.
Adopts a kid and grooms the kid she put up for adoption. How did this get
through a script meeting? Why did no one put out this stupid plot hole at any
point during pre-production?
There were some good moments. The first time when the blonde kid appears in the treehouse was good as was when Katie stood up from the coach. In the screening that I was in when Katie snaps the guys neck some woman behind me said "they did that in the second film" and that's the thing about this film is that they seem to be going through the things they did in the previous films. There was a bit where Wyatt is on a tricycle riding through the kitchen when you think 'ok you've seen the shining, well done'. Also there is the bit where the fridge door opens and you expect something to appear and nothing does which is disappointing. Also a reference is made that the mom and dad aren't getting on and its forgotten and they keep referring to people meeting at katie's house but nothing is made of it until the end where the light shows a group of people in the garden which is from the third film and there is a moment where Katie is running towards the camera and her face goes funny which indicates that they have also seen grave encounters.
So in a nutshell, paranormal activity four is rubbish and the worst film of the year so far. It's a lazy film making that doesnt hide the fact that it only exists because the money says it has to. This will no doubt tale hundreds of millions of dollars and it seems like they made this just to see how take people's money. There were people in the screening trying to make everyone else jump and those attempts were more creative and effective than this film.
On a final note. It cost me eight pounds to see this rubbish and I jumped twice. That's four quid a jump which simply isn't good enough. Also there is a thing at the end after the credits roll which takes place somewhere and it happens in some shop where the guy holding the camera is walking round, gets found by a weird woman and then leaves the shop.This is meant to leave the door open for a fifth installement but to be honest its going to have to pick up its game to wash away the disappointment of this film.
