(HORROR) Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones - 2014 **

 
The weakest of the Paranormal Activity franchise, this movie isn't good. It's disjointed and the story rolls backwards and forwards, all over the place. A young boy begins to experience strange things after the peculiar death of his neighbour, and after a while finds out that he has been 'marked' by demonic entities as the next to go. It sounds like a fascinating premise but actually it's deeply unscary, with out of proportion jumps and bad acting. Keep to the four main films and give this one a miss.

(HORROR) Child's Play - 1988 ****


'Child's Play' is a scary film. Especially scary to me because I have a bit of a hysterical nature regarding dolls becoming real. The 'Good Guy' doll itself, even when it's just a doll, has a menacing look about it, but when it starts walking and talking, my god!
A doll being possessed by the soul of a psychotic murderer named Charles 'Chucky' is quite a good idea for a horror film. It's certainly unique, and it's got enough material to spawn a number of sequels. Definitely a must see for horror fans.
