Tuesday 14th January-Paranormal Activity The Marked Ones (2014)
That's right, I review new horror movies too Lol. I checked out the newest edition to the popular franchise at my local cinema and here's my thoughts....
First off let me point out that this is a Spin-Off not following on from the events of the recent Paranormal Activity but has many connections to set events. Written and directed by Christopher Landon it follows a Family living within the Latino community of Oxnard, California, Jesse and his friends are hanging out one evening when their is a murder in the apartment right bellow where they live, They then break in the next evening to investigate what happened, Jesse then has a bite mark on his arm and begins to go through some disturbing changes in his personality. His friends try to help him and discover that he has been marked by a coven which leads to events that shed more light on some questions that have not recently been answered within the paranormal activity series.

This is a MASSIVE improvement for the series as Paranormal Activity 4 pretty much sucked (except for the ending) it's more upbeat, more funnier, you really feel a connection to all the characters, theirs much more going on as unlike the last 4 you're not always stuck in one or sometimes 2 houses looking into one room waiting impatiently for something to happen, like I said it their is more info on the witches and I really enjoyed Jesse in this one (Nice one Andrew Jacobs) I do recommend you go see this movie ASAP as it's a great edition to the franchise and I am very excited to see what Paranormal Activity 5 brings.
4/5-Best in the series....So Far :)
