    Ok I just got off the phone and can confirm that this movie will be shown in Ireland! Been chasing and chasing and when I got a call from the movies distributors I nearly did a little wee :D

    Can't give details now but I'll post in this thread when I can with news.

    certainly wins the 'more hyped than blair witch project' award. its a pity it'll probably weigh in as another 'scary movie' rather than one documenting paranormal activity.

    Its a scarey movie. It just happens to be based around a subject the people of this forum like.

    Would love to get a load of people from here out to see it as a group when it comes out.

    Ah class. Been a few months since I saw a decent 'scary' film - Drag Me To Hell and Let The Right One In before it.

    Lookin forward to this now :D

    Looks fantastic. I however fail to be impressed by the extreme emotional responses of the audience. They are American afterall. :p;)

    Wahooooo, can't wait to cry with fear! :D But I'm looking forward to seeing this!

    I think it'll be good. The director made the film in a week for a budget of less than 15,000 dollars with a couple of friends.
    He made it after being creeped out by noises in his own house after moving in, the house in the film is the same one.

    The film needs 1000,000 demands on their website before being given a widespread release, it's at almost 700,000 now after rising by 150,000 in the last couple of days, so it seems certain that we'll get to see it.

    Visit www.paranormalmovie.com to demand it!

    its not a "very bad" film, I've seen a lot of movies with 100 times the budget that were a lot worse.

    it's not going to blow you away though and aside from one or two jumps occasionally, it's not going to scare you unless you're 12. mind you, not many movies have scared me since i was 12, so maybe that's just me.

    there are a couple of cleverly done scenes in the movie though and it's worth a watch. you have to commend the director really for what he achieved with so little and it's certainly a lesson that Hollywood should pay attention to.
