More scares than ever...

Two years ago the true birth of "Paranormal Activity" began when Paramount unleashed the little movie that could. The movie looked like it was made for a pack of cashews and a roll of quarters, but the general population ate it up like crazy.

"Paranormal Activity" became the overnight sensation that none of us expected and the new Halloween tradition for movie goers around the globe. If it's Halloween it's "Paranormal Activity."

"Paranormal Activity 3" begins with our beloved (and un-possessed) Katie from the first two movies. She comes across an old box of unmarked tapes from her childhood and we are magically teleported to 1989, Katie's childhood.

Unlike the last two movies, we don't have a bunch of downtime where nothing at all happens. Instead we're re-introduced to the girls and their parents. Within minutes this we start to notice creepy things happening and the rest is history.

There are so many scary moments of suspense. It makes you think the demon worked so hard in 1988 that he must have been tired when he came back for Katie (Katie Featherston) and Kristie (Sprague Grayden) in the present. The entity does not let up for a minute in this prequel and it results in more scares than both previous films.

Luckily, everything in the trailers is all new. Three-fourths of the footage was yanked and replaced with far more frightening footage.

The only issue I have with this movie is that it doesn't feel like a tie-in to the others. It just kind of ends (expectedly like most found-footage films) and you're left thinking, "These kids didn't remember this?"

It also starts to make things much more complicated. The success of the original was due to its simplicity. I think that's what most people will miss in this installment.

"Paranormal Activity 3" is the Halloween movie of 2011. It's going to involuntarily make you yell and scream things at the screen in a packed showing.

If you're one of the few who don't feel this urge, you'll at least find entertainment in those around you losing their minds. This movie is a must-see theater experience that you don't want to miss.
