Paranormal Activity scares up the biggest opening for a horror film this century!

Paranormal Activity has scared up a huge opening weekend result, the biggest for any horror film since The Blair Witch Project, back in 1999. As its local box office exceeds $2.7 million, Paranormal Activity also holds the record for the second biggest horror film opening of all time in Australia.

Leaving other horror films such as Scream2 and Saw3 in its wake, Paranormal Activity is the little film that could. Made on a shoestring budget of $15,000, the indie horror has become a worldwide success, smashing box office records and grossing more than $114 million.

Paranormal Activity follows the movements of a young, middle class couple who become increasingly disturbed by a presence in their seemingly typical suburban house. The presence may or may not be demonic, but it is most active at night, when the couple attempt to sleep.

Paranormal Activity is in cinemas now. Experience it for yourself.
