Blu-ray Review: Surprisingly Effective ‘Paranormal Activity 3’ Finds Scares Again

Paranormal Activity 3

CHICAGO – It is incredibly rare for a third installment in a franchise to find what was lost in the second one. That usually takes much longer, if it ever comes. “Saw III,” “Friday the 13th, Part III,” “Halloween III” — none of these movies come close to the original.
