What’s ‘Paranormal’ anyway?

Don’t expect Casper. The second sequel to 2009’s hit Paranormal Activity jumps back to 1988 when two young sisters attempt to befriend a spectral entity in their home with horrific results. Shot documentary style with clips that closer resemble home movies than a blockbuster cinematic vision, and featuring a cast of little-known actors to enhance realism, this lower budget creep-out fest could appeal to moviegoers looking to get into the Halloween moody early. Rated R.
