Paranormal Acitvity 2 Takes First Place in the Box Office

     In this weekend's box office report, Paranormal Activity 2 has beaten down every movie ranked after it with $41.5 million. Paranormal Activity 2 is about a young couple who find themselves having to cope with a potentially evil spirit in their house.
     I myself cannot tolerate the suspense and fear that emit from horror movies. My first, and last, experience of watching a horror movie was in second grade at a friend's birthday party. It was in the slightly chilling Saturday afternoon when I went to a friend's house to celebrate her eighth birthday. As a "fun" party activity, Jessica, the birthday girl, decided to rent a horror movie, The Grudge. At first, I had thought that I could probably handle it, after all, horror movies are almost never based off of true stories.  I was wrong, watching The Grudge was the worst movie experience I had in my life: people screaming, bone-chilling music, sudden pop ups, creepy-looking evil Japanese siblings, and blood. After watching The Grudge, I would always check around me to make sure something or someone wouldn't randomly pop up. The movie really haunted me.
    Since then, I have never watched a horror movie. Paranormal Activity has won over the box office for its ability to strike major fear into its audience. I myself wouldn't watch this movie but for those who love fear, this movie is recommended.
