Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension (2015)

Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Fresh and Exciting

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Did the director of this movie grow up in slums? he really needs to go to school before making any more movies. Its not even worth 1 star. This movie is only about few jobless people filming there own house and even after knowing its haunted brainless mother keeps screaming "OMG! what is happening" like really? after knowing its haunted u don't leave the house but continue filming with the lights off the whole time. Its the most predictable and stupid movie i must have ever watched. In your next part (which I hope never comes out) please do not hold the camera at one point and zoom at it slowly, people who went to school would know something is coming up. Bloody third grade movie.

I invested an hour and a half into this movie only to find nothing happening except for "did you hear this?" "Did you hear that?" And watching through an old camcorder was ugly and 3D looking but without the glasses made me TERRIBLY sick for the rest of the night. DO NOT BOTHER with this movie.

I understand the hate because it's paranormal activity. However, this film was very entertaining to me and was a fun little scary movie to watch. I'm not saying it's even great but definitely above average. I personally didn't like any of the other films and I feel that this one stuff actually happens. My main problem with the other ones are so much time wasted with nothing happening with a stupid payoff that really isn't scary. Now i'm not gonna say that all the jump scares are good because not all are but some are cool through the first person view that not much of the other films explored for some crazy reason. Now the time line with the other films are kinda cool and I like the concept but it isn't utilized to the full potential. Now I never write reviews but i felt i should write this because this film was a fun ride, nothing insanely good that's gonna turn a new leaf in the horror genre or even that it's new but more that it's a good entertaining horror film to watch when your in the mode for a interesting movie. So if you have an amazon prime membership and can watch the movie for free some night, check it out. But if you wanted to rent it for a couple bucks that's okay. To be honest I fell kinda bad saying it but I might even pick this title up on blu-ray on black Friday if it's really cheap. Not a bad one to add to the collection.

I've seen all the installments of the paranormal activity franchise and I'm sorry to say but I feel profoundly let down. Lets start with just the final movie, "Ghost Dimension". The concept was so interesting, and it had great lead up but by the time we got to this final chapter the plot had become incredibly predictable. It's the same movie washed, rinsed, and repeated over and over again. Family has camera, spooky stuff happens, spooky stuff gets weirder and weirder until finally the family dies and one of the family members goes missing. The final plot fit this cookie cutter ending perfectly and now Tobi lives, though what I find the funniest part about this movie, is the overpowered demon Tobi forces the plot to become cheap. He's unbeatable, it makes a mockery of the very source material this show uses, religion. If you're going to use religion as the source material for your show you have to set up rules. If demons could easily kill ministers, pastors, fathers, etc. with a flick of the wrist then why the heck would churches even exist anymore? If a demon can so easily kill anything around it just by playing tricks on a family until its strong enough to wipe them out. You can't create a world without some rules or you complete deflate the both the antagonist and the protagonist. We know the families going to die so we don't fully invest ourselves, and we know that the demon is somehow all powerful (even when the source material for the demon concept comes from religion and includes demons being cast out easily by servants of the lord so it makes no sense why a spirit, prince of hell, or demon has so much ridiculous power) Another huge flaw in all of this franchise is the fact that they use children as vessels, sorry but that also goes against the source material in question, whenever you have great darkness you also have to have great light. You have a demon, you also have an angel. You have God and you have the devil, and by the way God wins so I'm not sure how demons in this show apparently just bypassed their own higher powers. My point is, if you end every single movie with the same thing, and have a total disregard to the source material, then your audience is going to get annoyed or bored. Making a movie about evil spirits, and witches, and rituals and what not is all fun and all but you also have to remember that all of those things have to have their opposites has well. Just like you can't have the devil if you don't like-wise have God. They go together you can't believe in one and deny the existence of the other. This comes full circle as each movie ends with the demon simply killing everything in sight with a flick of its finger.
