Paranormal Activity 2 Reviews

Paramount has been secretive about the release of "Paranormal Activity 2" which opens in theaters this weekend and so far has kept it away from critics. Either the sequel flick is really bad or they're trying to hide a surprise in the film, which is what we're thinking.

A small number of reviews have begun trickling in at Rotten Tomatoes from twenty cities that got a free sneak peak of the film. Of the half dozen or so reviews, the majority are fresh.

Most of the reviews on RT seem to be from small independent websites.  "PA2 is an absolute success that is smarter and scarier than the original," said JimmoyO from iamROGUE.

Paranormal Activity 2 Reviews:"This is a rare sequel that complements and enhances the original without betraying the elements that made it work in the first place" concluded Steve Barton from Dread Central.

So far there is only one negative review displayed on RT. "There are a few "jump out of your seat" moments but when you break it down, it's just a simple rehash of the original," said Matthew Toomey of ABC Radio Brisbane.

The original film "Paranormal Activity" did some staggering numbers, as it grossed $193 million worldwide last year. Not only that, the film only cost fifteen thousand dollars to produce!

We'll have to wait and see what the mass reaction is, as the sequel opens wide this weekend. What's your take? Do you think "Paranormal Activity 2" will be a decent sequel?
