IT'S NO JOKE!

"So Scary..." critics say. What makes scary movies scary?? When you go home after the movie and you're still jumpy, you're afraid to go anywhere around your house by yourself. You try to watch a little TV to take your mind off of that scary movie, but you still end up rocking yourself to sleep with the blankets over your head (as your shield from doom). And then you wake up the next morning, you're still a little jumpy but not as much, because you know you're leaving your house soon. To go to work or wherever... and tell people about last nights movie experience. And you tell them how scary it was and you tell them that you freaked yourself out so bad that you went to sleep shaking with the blankets over your head. Everyone laughs at you and say it couldn't have been that scary. And they all promise to see it and prove you wrong! You smile at their laughter all the while you still have this eerie chill lingering over you. You try to shake the eerie chill all day at work by briefly bringing up the movie to more and more people. On your lunch break you bring it up to your server at your favorite restaurant. After work you bring it up to your bartender and your happy hour friends at the local pub. You eventually shake the eerie chill, or you thought you had, until you get home and you're alone and you just want to jump in bed and hide under the covers and rock yourself to sleep again (but it's only 8 o'clock and that would be silly of you), because you're scared shitless, of what... the idea of that scary movie, the things that go bump in the night?? What?

A good scary movie would do that for me, but fortunately watching a little TV before bed would take the scary movie right off my mind. Or just watching the scary movie during the daylight time. Daylight time scary movie watching is for cheaters, because you're only scared at the theater and then when you go outside into the daylight, it diffuses the scariness... It's for cheaters and chumps! -Sorry, I threw that in there, there is serious information coming soon, I'm just trying to hold your attention.


Anyway, imagine a scary movie that scares you so bad that a little post TV watching will not get it off your mind, all the covers in the world can't shield and protect you, and forget about daylight... Imagine a scary movie that makes you want to move out of your house! -I should have just wrote this warning in the first sentence, but I wanted to build up to the warning, to make you think. To make you believe. To let you believe! The new scary movie is called "PARANORMAL ACTIVITY" Beware of this movie! Please. I warned you. Please, read on.

Okay, okay, now read carefully. This super low budget "Blair Witch..." type movie came out Friday September 25, 2009. And like Blair Witch it only had a few screenings (16 different cities, to be exact). But unlike Blair Witch... there is a twist. No not a twist within the movie. Ah, how can I explain this. Ok. -google the movie "Paranormal Activity" to see the trailer and more info. In the trailer they show an audience reaction to the screening of the movie and man do they look terrified. But this isn't the original trailer that was released a few weeks ago. It was changed. If YOU saw the original trailer (which is very similar to the one on the site now) you would have saw several spirits hanging around the audience members. Some are unclear, but one entity stands out. It's a tall dark man spirit that sort of stares at the camera as if it knows we are watching... eerie. I know, I know, you think it's just a promotional gimmick, but there's more. Keep reading!
On the website it has all kinds of information on the movie, though the info is vague no one seems to question the director or the actors. True, some of the producers drop big movie names and etc. But come on read between the lines! Okay, I'm getting off topic. Let's just say a friend of a friend saw the original trailer and thought it was a clever promotional gimmick, being a lover of horror films, this friend researched more and dug deeper... This friend found something wrong! If you go onto the website at the top of the site there is a yellow box titled "Demand It". When you click on it, it takes you to another website. This is a legit website, it's a way to promote events in your area, through way of petition. Anyway you go on this site, you find your city, you click on it, and then your city is in the running to have "Paranormal Activity" played at major theaters there. Come on! This movie has already gotten major positive reviews, even with it's few screenings. So, give it a couple of months it will be in major theaters, in major cities anyway... So why use the petition?? Yeh, this is what my friend of a friend thought, so he/she researched on, and even teamed up with someone who dabbles with computers (if ya know what I mean). And together they found some hidden links in the petition website (though it is a legit website), when questioned this website didn't appear to know about the hidden links. They even did there own search and found nothing. Yesterday friends of friends checked the site again and the hidden links were there. But when checked only a few hours ago the links were there. It appears they seem to come and go in a timely fashion, but certain computers can only find certain links, and... I'm blabbing. The site needs to maintain the hidden links because the "Paranormal Activity" petition is linked to a contract. What? Yes, and this contract says that the residents of certain cities agrees to have paranormal activity released in a theater near them. If you noticed I did not put paranormal activity in capital letters or quotation marks! That's because when you click on this petition you also have signed a contract giving X,Y, and Z permission to release (again) paranormal activity (AKA ghost, poltergist, spirits, etc.) into your local theater. Okay, okay so these "people" will go to your theater with their paranormal tools and have seances, and such... and release ghost in the theaters.

But how and why? It's all in the contracts. Don't worry you're safe by reading this, you're safe by watching the trailer, and you're even safe by signing the petition. JUST DON'T GO TO A THEATER TO VIEW THIS MOVIE! There will be "something" with you watching. Ha, you think this is funny, or maybe you think this adds excitement to your horror movie experience. But wait! There was an incident is a city after the September 25th viewing of this film. A friend of a friend knew this girl that saw the movie and when she went home that night she had similar experiences as the actress in the film. And she just called this friend this morning to say freaky things have been happening even now. It's been two days since she viewed the movie, maybe it's just all in her head. ?

Someone (maybe the director and/or the actors)?(pure speculation of course) were curious and thought it would be interesting to release ghost into the theater before the movie was shown. This movie was shown at a couple of festivals before the small release on Friday. So through research my friend of a friend discovered that an amateur paranormal investigation team was hired to provoke spirits through seances. After the seances, the team tested their own work, though they found no paranormal activity, they told the "people" that hired them that the place was filled with spirits and their job was successful. That was at the first festival screening in Oct. 2007. At the second festival screening the same seances were done using the same team. (that was early last year)
Apparently this "someone" knew that the team was extremely amateur and through a leaked source found out that their seances didn't work. It turned out later that the "someones", hired amateurs on purpose, and thought this info would leak creating the perfect marketing gimmick. In late 2007 there was a paranormal incident at a man's place of employment, he claimed a spirit lived under his desk. He was fired. Also at a couple's home they claimed that their bathroom was haunted, and when strange happenings started in their bedroom, they tried to ignore it. It lasted for a month. It scared them so bad that they eventually moved from their home. These people were all at the first screening of "Paranormal Activity". When this news got out to people involved in creating the film they thought it was a hoax from the fans, so they embraced it. But when a girl was institutionalized for claiming that several ghost invaded her apartment and tormented her... (she saw the second screening) the film creators became nervous. But only a little nervous, the sick bastards thought they could still use this as publicity. Majority of the film creators do not believe in ghost. Just in case their was a little truth to any of it they protected themselves with the petition and the contract. ---So get this straight. The investigators release the spirits at the theaters, some spirits linger, and some spirits attach to certain movie watchers... and follow them home. Some spirits are simply curious about why they were dumped in the theater, some find their way back to where they came from, and some get angry. That couple that had the haunted bathroom and bedroom, they moved right. A week after their move they broke up. Two weeks later the woman from that couple claimed her apartment was haunted, she swore it was the same spirit from her house. The man from that couple claims to have no complaints, but friends of his say that he's moved twice in a month, and he barely sleeps. Hmmm. Maybe his ex is crazy? Maybe it's all a big joke?

So, like I said DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE IN THEATERS! And you know what, don't even watch it on DVD, apparently they are connecting spirits to the DVD, just ask Steven Spielberg he claimed a copy that he watched was haunted.
