Box Office Pam Grady Paranormal Activity is so cheesy that it ought to come with a warning for the lactose intolerant. | 10 | |
Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert Paranormal Activity is an ingenious little horror film, so well made it's truly scary, that arrives claiming it's the real thing. | 18 | |
eye Weekly Adam Nayman Oren Peli’s shoestring indie chiller Paranormal Activity is more profitably analyzed as a sly domestic farce about the consequences of negative energy. | 10 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers It will fry your nerves and creep you out big time without spending a dime on obvious special effects. | 15 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Viewed as a communal experience, and with more laughs and appreciation of the staging of the scares than I had imagined, it's far more entertaining than truly unsettling and scary, but maybe that's just me. | 13 | |
