Scary MOVIE

Now,about the story: the movie centers on a young middle class couple Katie and Micah,who are haunted by a supernatural presence in their home. Katie claims that a ghostly entity has haunted her since her youth and believes that it has followed her to this house too. Micah buys a video camera in the hopes of capturing paranormal activity on film. A self-professed psychic,Dr. Fredrichs assesses that they are being plagued by a demon which feeds off “negative energy” and is intent on haunting Katie. Each night,Micah leaves the video camera on in their bedroom to record whatever might be occurring while they sleep. He manages to document several phenomena such as objects moving on their own,lights and televisions switching on and off,and sounds ranging from voices and growls to footsteps and loud thuds. The strange occurrences in the middle of the night soon become frequent with no explanations.

Similar to the real time horrors like The Blair Witch Project and The Last Broadcast,this film was photographed at Peli’s home during a seven-day sprint in 2006 with a crew of three that included co-producers Toni Taylor,Peli’s then-girlfriend,and Amir Zbeda,one of the Oren’s best friends.

Scared of ghosts his entire life,Oren cites his reason for making this film. “The reason for making the ghost in the story a demon was a result of research pointing to the most malevolent and violent entities being ‘demons’. If something is lurking in your home there’s not much you can do about it. I didn’t want bloodshed,or go over the top. The fact that we have a lot of scenes in the movie that are totally quiet forces the audience to be quiet and really pay attention to every little thing. Silence only emphasizes that little tap on the wall you know is not supposed to be there.”
