I went and saw Paranomal Activity 2 last night. I can't really recommend it. As one internet poster said, "Six things almost happen!" And the ending is too quick.
Instead, if you're looking for a scary movie for Halloween, go rent Trick 'R Treat. It's scary, but not gory. It's a series of four related films, so it feels like Creepshow did in the eighties, or maybe a bunch of really good Twilight Zone episodes.
As an added bonus, here is a scary song. I love this recording; it's by a guy named Barry Adamson, who played with Nick Cave and a band called Magazine. He creates these amazing soundtracks for movies that never existed... like a musical version of Cindy Sherman. When I was in a fraternity, I played this track over and over during the pledge initiation, until one of the members made me stop. It's that scary!
