The fourth annual entry in this thinly-stretched franchise is also one of the weakest. Saddled with the placing at its centre of two of the dullest 'teenagers' imaginable, a lot of unremarkable dialogue and limply routine jump-scares, the first hour is extremely uninteresting and very little actually happens in order to move the film or the series forward. A couple of decent ideas liven up the third act, but as this film offers nothing new in terms of terror that the series has not used before, and there is no growing sense of threat or menace - the violent acts towards the end come out of nowhere rather than develop as part of the flow of the narrative - this is an extremely pedestrian and unsatisfying entry in the Paranormal Activity series.
