So I would like to start off by saying both of these movies are excellent! I will keep this entry short (as per my new approach to blogging - ten points for consistency) but you have got to go see these movies.
Paranormal Activity: one word: shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitballs. I never get legitimately scared from a scary movie, but holy cannoli! This movie is a modern day Blair Witch Project - meaning it is a mockumentary-style film (although you are led to believe it is real until the very end). The acting was actually good... at least, as good as acting can get for a horror film... I don't really want to say anything, because when I saw it, I didn't know anything about it - I recommend you go in the same way!!
Zombieland: this movie is more lighthearted, but still very well done. Although very similar to Shaun of the Dead, Zombieland (forgive me for not using proper formatting when writing titles, all you gramma Nazis) is a dramedy involving very different characters taking on a nation of zombies. The two things I liked most about this film were the emphasis on home and the importance of enjoying the little things. Much like The Wizard of Oz, this film brings together four different people (although two of them are sisters, a pre-existing relationship) who are trying to find their own version of home. They realize in the end, however, that they have created a new home among themselves. They also have a lot of fun being the last remaining humans; for example, they break the sh*t out of a Native American gift shop and situate themselves in Bill Murray's Beverly Hills mansion.
GO SEE THESE MOVIES!!! Bye.
