how much it moved you

Two separate readings, not parts of the score — the score says how much of it held you, these say what kind of watch it was.

Nobody has rated this on FlickFeel yet. This is public discussion of this title, read into a curve. It is not a rating and it never becomes one.

Read from 51 comments (48 from Metacritic, 3 from TMDB reviews) — 22 of them described how it moves.

➖ steady — Holds one level all the way. Pulled both ways throughout — never simply one thing. Very little of it ever resolves. Marked above the line: 1 that landed as a blow.

height: how intense it got, 0–100
gold above: how tender it felt. violet below — what it cost. Thick on both at once means it was doing both.
tension rail: how much was still unresolved
marks: single moments — a jump, a blow, chills, a laugh
grey haze: how sure we are — wider means fewer people described it

Grouped by where it was written, because a considered review and a reaction typed an hour after the credits are different things. Every quote links to its source.

“The last 15 minutes, like the previous films, is by far the scariest part”

“when they stay at the moms moms house and Derris finds out that the girls are satanic mothaf*ckas. And then his little girl turns crazy... It was very creepy, and they did a good job building up until that moment.”

“I myself was shocked when they had the courage to kill the main character by snapping his back.... supernaturally. And then the wife, two girls, grandmother, and tons of other people are possessed by "Toby" or soemthing... Not sure about the wife. Maybe she died? They didnt really do a good job telling us what happened, just stating that she disappeared. But then again, she did fly off the staircase and knock him off the stairs..... This really was shocking to me, the fact that they killed the main character, and possess the other co main characters (Little girls and wife)”

“A tad better than the first if only because at 84-minutes there's not as much filler and a couple creepy scenes. Still not great with forgettable characters but at least watchable, although it was a bridge too far with the HD-quality level of video for a camera from 1988. **2.5/5**”

“Paranormal Activity 3 is a faithful continuation of the series, delivering all the expected horrors and more. Colour me surprised. This one was better than the second, and I enjoyed it more than the first one. The atmosphere of “Paranormal Activity 3” is similar to the first film, and the larger cast delivers respectable performances. The scares might not be as effective as they once were since the same formula is becoming stale, but a handful of fresh ideas were good enough to compensate for it”

“My favorite one out of the series. Goes back when they were little kids. This is how it all begin. Lots of hauntings going. This is how I wish the other 2 made before this one was.”
