2007: PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, and the Fear-Inducing Power of Stillness
Manage episode 332685738 series 2865408
Horror movies changed after director Oren Peli's "Paranormal Activity" hit the festival circuit in 2007. Suddently, found-footage was king, which is easy to understand, considering Peli's film was shot for just $15,000 then went on to make over $193 million at the box office.
In this episode, Mike and Brian talk creaky house sounds, ominous footsteps, the Wife Test, and the effect of a movie being so ubiquitous that many viewers see the parodies before the real thing. Then, they decide whether or not this film deserves a place in their top fives of the year.
