It took a page from 1999's The Blair Witch Project by using amateur footage, but Paranormal Activity one-uped Blair by ditching the obnoxious actors and going about things in a more subtle way. Paranormal doesn't do the monster or serial-killer thing like most horror films. Instead it relies on strange noises and shadows, leaving most of the thrills to be thought up by the audience.
