Paranormal Activity Opens Friday

Paranormal Activity is poised to be the next Blair Witch Project. Made for a paltry $11,000, this micro-indie shot on mini-DV is supposed to be über-horrifying. And, unlike Blair Witch, they used a tripod.

After it premiered last year, this haunted house flick was picked up by DreamWorks/Paramount and then promptly shelved. This spawned rumors that a remake was in the offing. Now, however, the movie is going the roadshow route to college towns and Madison is amongst the cities where it will open on Friday. Eastgate lists midnight showings for Friday and Saturday.

From the looks of the trailer (despite the audience reaction bits shot with low light cameras), the hype appears justified as it is quite creepy
