I think it’s worth a mention that “The Blair Witch Project” was the OG indie horror film that took America by storm. Paranormal Activity owes a lot of its success to the progenitor of found footage films.

[@snarkasticdouche3863]

Well, they both have a lot in common. Lots of boring crap, with a few lackluster scares. The only thing that makes "Blair Witch" kind of interesting is the MatPat theory that all the supernatural stuff was fake; and the two guys just plotted to murder the girl. And it's still not interesting enough to watch it again.

[@dannyolortegui3776]

When the ouija scene came on, I was high as a kite and was like "What the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck"

[@zebare726]

​​@@snarkasticdouche3863 What made Blair Witch so interesting and "Scary" was that it was something completely new for the horror genre, aka trying to make it an irl life event...In many ways it was an early version of what later came to be youtube paranormal videos. In the same way that Jackass is an early version of KZbin prank videos. I usually watch this film a little now and then because I love how the film conveys its story. But also because the film has a time capsule vibe.

[@NothingToPointOut24]

@@snarkasticdouche3863 No offense, but if that is the theory about BWP that you find interesting then its really not a shock that you didnt enjoy the film. There are other theories about there about the film (time warp) that are a little more interesting. What made it scary was the idea that you could enter an area in this world and not be able to escape due to an unseen entity controlling the woods. Its a feeling of helplessness that anyone watching the movie can relate to. And the acting from the 3 main players is better than anything in the PA universe. Also the advertising behind it is something that no movie will ever be able to accomplish again. Lots of people thought it was real footage when it was in theatres which added to the fright. Maybe that was silly to believe in hindsight, but its also 25 years ago.

[@snarkasticdouche3863]

Know what also had some really memorable advertisements? Budweiser. Know what also leaves a vague stale urine taste in your mouth? BWP. Also, I saw that "Film Theory" about a year ago, so... No, it had nothing to do with my distaste for weak, pissy tasting beer; or bad acting, and shitty movies. Nothing was good about the acting in either movie. It was "naturalistic dialogue''; mostly ad-libs by completely unskilled, untested actors. Ad-libbing can work, when it's done by a professional with a lifetime of acting experience. When you try it with nobodies; it just comes off as corny, bad acting. Sure, the acting in BWP was better than PA. Just like it's better picking up after my dog when it's a solid log; and not a pile of diarrhea. @@NothingToPointOut24

By invoking the names, you placed the curse upon yourself. I would love to see a ranking/summary video for the Saw franchise, and the Final Destination series too. Honestly, a ranking or summary vid for any classic slashers would be pretty awesome too like Friday the 13th, Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre etc.

[@bare_bear_hands]

I recently watched Spiral. It is so nice to see the "villain" of this movie being the actual hero and all deaths they caused being entirely justified - while in the previous ones, Jigsaw and their helpers would kill relatives and friends of the main victim for no good reason.

[@zanpakutoman4225]

I think the Child's Play series is pretty underrated, compared to the other slasher series. Chucky gets a lot of grief because "Killer dolls aren't scary or threatening. Just pick them up and smash them or whatever". But, I'm pretty sure most slasher fans don't find the movies scary anymore and are more interested in the personality of the movies. Which Chucky and its reoccurring characters bring a ton of personality. Even the straight to dvd movies have effort and creativity put into them.

The Marked Ones is my personal favorite, the setting and Chronicle approach of recording these "superpowers" and the Simon Says surrogate for the Ouija was extremely clever.

I think people disliked it because it’s a little more camp like Meat mentioned; going from a trilogy that was genuinely scary for a lot of people (and the 4th which was kinda ehh but still meant to be scary) to something that makes you laugh at little old ladies getting blasted away by shotguns and a kid learning to fly was a big tonal shift

[@danic2514]

It was based on my hometown and a lot of us found the trailers really offensive

[@RexKwonDough]

Growing up Hispanic from a not very well off family really made me relate to the characters and the environment they were in. I felt like I could be family with those guys or friends at school with them. Just the humor and the overall tone of the movie really hit. Like meat said the other movies revolve around people in nice houses nice cars and you think yeah arrogant assholes die to spiritual stuff. But the marked ones had that grandma who didn’t f*ck with that stuff, so realistic I felt bad when anyone died in this movie I never felt like the ignorance of them was their down fall it just felt like they got screwed by circumstance.

As a massive fan of the Child's Play franchise, I would love to see a video on your take of the franchise. A ranking of the existing films would be great, or even just a video talking about your experience with the movies.

There are two types of people that enjoy horror movies. People that enjoy the tension heightened sense arousal that comes with being scared.. and psychopaths that revel in the chaos. Both of you were having a blast but in different ways. Seeing the first one in theaters was wild. Lots of people just straight up screaming punctuated by bursts of shocked laughter. It was definitely on the level of Blair Witch Project, the film that preceded it culturally less than a decade before. Some good movies like Cloverfield came out of this period in movies, but I’m somewhat glad we’ve largely moved on from it as a trend.

I remember my mother and two sisters went to watch Paranormal Activity 1 in theaters late one night, and had such a profound experience. They came home visibly shaken. I can only compare it to when The Exorcist came out and people were having fainting spells, and flocked to church. My mother and sisters were adamant that I not watch it. So of course I did when it came out on DVD, and found it just okay. However, when Paranormal Activity 2 came out I was dead set on having an experience like them, and went to go watch it opening weekend. Suffice it to say… it was alright. I didn’t get much out of it.

I remember when I saw paranormal activity in theatres... It was my sophomore year in highschool and I had finally been invited to a birthday party with a group of the more popular kids from my grade. We all went to sushi before proceeding onwards to the movie theatre. We all bought our tickets, purchased some snacks from the concession shake down counter and went inside. We were sat in two rows, we numbered in the twenties. I am a tall mf so i sat in the further back row. The movie begins and everything is going just fine. The cute blonde that I had somewhat of a crush on was sitting directly in front of me, this is key. Remember the sushi? Well, the souls of the salmon and tuna fish had sought revenge on me for eating their mortal coils. The movie was in a tense moment of building dissonant sound while nothing happened on screen. I felt the jumpscare coming just as I felt the a large movement in my gut. The music climaxed - I attempted to use the anticipated jumpscare audio hit to mask the sound of the fart. But there was no jumpscare. Just silence. Silence except for my ass. Which was the only sound in the theatre. Everyone around me turned and stared at me. Laughs and chuckles were heard from all direction within the theatre. The girl I had a crush on turned around when she heard my thunder from down under just soon enough to catch the miasma wave of death to the face. The transformation and contortion of her face in the moment haunted me for the remainder of my highschool experience. I look back on it now and laugh, but I can't think of paranormal activity without thinking of that.

I'd really recommend the Rec series. It's another found footage series about zombies but it goes places lol. It's a wild ride. The first movie is one of my favorites and it ended up having a few English spinoffs called "Quarantine". Those went a differention than Rec but both are at least fun. The first Rec movie is easily one of my favorite horror movies. I feel it does like... 90% of things right. Simple setting. Relatively grounded premise. Good pacing. Has an air of mystery (as long as the characters are ignorant to what's going on, so are you), and it does do much with basically four rooms. The other movies aren't as good but they are still pretty fun watches. That first one though is an absolute gem. The originals aren't in English but the remakes are. The first Quarantine and first Rec are nearly the same though.

Back when I saw the third movie I found myself thinking how they could make an interesting fourth movie without just repeating the same formula. My idea was that they should go back to the dead couple at the end of #2 and show the perspective of the police investigating the murders from their body cams and dash cams and stuff, and as they investigate strange shit happens. That seemed like it would be a fun switch up of the formula. Obviously never happened.

I must confess. The kitchen cabinets in the middle of the day without the "bass warning" in the 2nd movie... It got me. Only memorable thing from this entire list of movies...

[@Ohnahitsjosiah]

Marked Ones is a guilt pleasure movie. Honestly the most fun to have out of them all.

[@Chandler2002]

Marked ones has always been my favorite of the series,for sure the most fun one out of em.

[@YTSH0RTMEME3]

our attention span was different back then...hard to believe someone sat through one of these movies in a movie theater and watched the whole thing

[@_feara]

yknow I saw this channel and didn't think it'd be as good as your other channel, but honestly the commentary and editing is so good! Love your work!

[@pitalovr]

Love the movie reviews, keep ‘em coming!!

[@matthewfredericks25]

3:56 I think its looks that when it starts to haunts but when it feeds on more and more of your fear it becomes able to interact to the world

[@forestchorus2272]

Paranormal activity 3 fucked. Me. Up. Bad as a kid. I couldn't reach into my room to turn the lightswitch on when it was dark or have my closet door open. I was afraid of putting my feet on the ground when getting out of bed or off the couch cause I thought I would get sucked under it. Didnt help my mom believed our house was haunted either so I thought playing the movie in our living room gave our ghost ideas.

[@winnerdiego4562]

The editing on these videos are getting better and better 💀. I’m enjoying his movie reviews more than his cartoons

[@julyacherep9021]

i would love to see a video about supernatural one day. man you have golden content, feels like i found a gold mine - don't f-ing know where i was all those years but I definitely missed a lot.

[@thealmightyjack]

I remember when Paranormal Activity 1 came out while I was in high school. We had a theatre in town that was selected as one of the limited-release venues before it blew up. A big group from my class went to it and it was honestly an experience you had to witness in that moment. In hindsight, the movie loses a lot upon extra viewings at home or even upon thinking about how cheesy it was.

[@daedevillewrestling]

I really feel sorry for zoomers not being able to have that level of naïveté when experiencing things that millennials had as kids. We peaked as a species in the 90s but there was something damn magical in 00’s entertainment realm

[@ConnorHammond]

I have the same sentiments as you on the first viewing. Every time the bass droned, I'd get crazy goosebumps in anticipation. Then the loud slams made my eyes tear up. I was in the perfect mood for what it was dishing out.

[@Micsma]

for me it was Sinister. I was in a theater in one of the places that the film goes to and people actually screamed. It was great.

[@glittergamer765]

My Dad went to it, and hates horror movies. He almost threw up from one of the cheaper scares.😅

[@enzolabre6295]

Just leaving a comment to say that I've been loving these Horror Movies Themed videos. The editing and your personality are a perfect match and everey time I see new upload I get excited Big hugs, hope you are doing great and Lots of love!

WATCH THE REC FRANCHISE

[@thrillcollectors]

I remember liking the Marked Ones. There was one scene where there’s like a running sound stomping towards the camera that gave me chills but I can’t remember anything else. So yeah if my favorite one only has one thing I vaguely remember, it goes to show the quality of these movies

[@kennyl8066]

I cannot get enough of these reviews, keep it up, pops!

[@nightowlonthebeach]

My opinion from the best to the worst: 1-paranormal activity 3 2 paranormal activity 2 3-paranormal activity 1 4-paranormal activity 5 The marked ones 5-paranormal activity 4 6-paranormal activity 6 The ghost dimension 7- paranormal activity 7 Next of kin

[@joana120-]

totally right! i agree

[@Sasakibomber]

The coolest thing i remember from the Paranormal Activity movies was the Marked Ones being based in my town and some locations were being shot at the spots. A good amount of teens and young adults were hyped of course.

[@yourenotthatguypal99]

Honestly brother, this was awesome to hear you and your creative mind analyse these horror films. Especially because (although you might not believe it) plenty of people out there admire your views on cinematography and story development as well as your trippy and disturbing style of horror orientated animation. This was great to take a trip back into memory lane with you and get a lil glimpse of your past. God bless, Papa Meat. Love from NZ.

[@uuuuNB]

@8:50 lol that legit looks exactly like the glitchy animation when killing a NPC in some of the old Hitman games

[@blackfox1320]

Not gonna lie, the first one freaked me out when I saw it in theaters. Classic film that spawned a whole genre.

[@tancredidesimone7301]

I don't know how he does find time to produce and post the cartoons and still etertain us with this more light hearted content, even with help of a team it seems very difficult, thanks papa.

[@jo4210]

Really loving the animal crossing slow jazz in the background of this video about a found footage haunting series. Really just flows with the theme of this video

[@victoriadoh3385]

Since we now have confirmation that there is going to be a remake of the Exorcist coming out possibly this year (yikes) you could go through that series of films! Not a super long list, I believe there's only 5 of them. The original Exorcist is one of my favourite horror films that actually scares me and its influence still lives on today. Also there's a lot of crazy behind the scenes stuff you can delve into if need be.

[@jesusdamian1874]

Daddy, I wanted to take a moment and say thank you so much for these consistent uploads. I know they probably take something away from you, but we appreciate you. I have subscribe to your Patreon in the highest tier as a show of my loyalty to you and your team. Thank you, and back to the video.

[@itshannahcady]

ill be honest with you, i had a huge phase in my childhood where all i did was obsess over horror movies, and the paranormal activity era was a BIG PART of that obsession but what i can say is that if i was to go back now at 20 years old to one of these movies, id get bored in a matter of 20 minutes because like you said they dont give you a lot, the script is dead and dry, you dont care for the acting or characters as much as you would if u were to be introduced to good acting and a great storyline in the franchise but yeah. GREAT WATCH and THANK YOU FOR TALKING ON THIS !!!

[@edhoncho489]

hands down i think the marked ones is the best one, its such a different feel. way different characters with different backgrounds and culture. Different scenery and i feel like alot more ppl can relate to it. Like hispanic ppl and just "minority" ppl. Its a more fun and relatable movie. i love how its like the main character gets super powers lol i find that cool. The demon or whatever stops him from getting hurt. But i also love the first one because its the original, like you said that movie if you seen it in theaters when it came out its such a fun and crazy experience. one of the first movies that at least i can remember that had that type of experience. PS: I LOVE YOU BIG DAWG! lmao i love all our content, your a great person. stay blessed and keep striving my G.

[@MrEmerys89]

The first one was good because of how it was marketed. Found footage, you had to request it to come to your theater, and it reminded people of the way Blair Witch was marketed. It was definitely a “you had to be there” type of phenomenon. I didn’t realize there was more than three movies 😅

[@danielkoenen859]

Watching all movies in a famdom at once is stuff my depression gets me to do. We love you PapaMeat and appreciate you sharing these videos.

[@tyshafer]

I wish he did a list of his favorite horrors in general!

[@ethanglasgow7612]

Horror movies were what I grew up on, and it honestly feels a bit nostalgic talking about the paranormal activity movies. While Blair witch started it, paranormal activity definitely solidified the “found footage” style that was EVERYWHERE in indie horror at the time. This created some cult classics (like VHS, Sinister, As Above so Below) and I think really challenged the standard of what made a “well choreographed” film. That being said, it also made some of the worst movies I have ever seen and could be considered a factor into why so many awful horror movies were pumped out at the time.

[@therecreationalguru7323]

The first one was an INSANE theater experience. I had a guy light a blunt, couple people walked out, and almost everyone was talking to the screen!!

[@useyourimaginasean]

I remember going to see the original paranormal activity with some friends thinking we wouldn’t react or that it was going to be stinker. It was a great experience in the theatre, the value of an audience audibly reacting to a movie is really gratifying and a memorable experience everyone should enjoy. It’s moments like those when everyone loses their shit during a horror movie that really stick with you. That is one thing about going to see a movie at the theatre that streaming will never be able to match.

[@bare_bear_hands]

"The reason why we pay $20 per person instead of $5 for everyone to watch at home." (idk about american movie ticket prices, but that's about one pizza, right?)

[@useyourimaginasean]

@@bare_bear_hands depending on where you live in the US, yeah. Although I do take advantage of the dominos coupons I get. Two large two toppings pizzas for 7.99 and bobs your uncle

[@retorikhal]

@@bare_bear_hands what movie ticket is worth $20 per person and what streaming service is worth $5???

[@appalachiabrauchfrau]

When my SO and I went to watch the first one some dudes jumped down into the seats next to us from the row behind ours because we "hadn't screamed yet," and they "needed support" lmao. The movies are definitely better in theaters.

[@pucktoad]

I hate going to the theatre. I don't want to just listen to someone cough and breathe behind me. I genuinely don't care about the experiences of "the group fun" of concerts or other cult things like that

[@kemikaru14]

You should do final destination, shit messed me up as a kid also ngl. Another great franchise you should watch is VHS. Those movies are great and keeps it interesting because they are like a bunch of short films of different "found footage ". My favorite one was the guy who turned into a zombie and you saw it happen in first person the whole time. Shit was a trip.

[@bloopobaggins2851]

I will forever drool over Chronicle and because of this I love mid ass movies like Affliction 2013 and Marked Ones. Superpower documentation never gets old to me, and if you know any others lmk
