This might be the most profitable movie in Paramount's history. Remember this is the studio that made four [i]Indiana Jones/i] movies. With a budget of $13,000 and word-of-mouth doing most of the marketing work, Paranormal Activity has made $62,000,000 on a maximum of 2000 screens so far.
... and its scaring the crap put of pretty much anyone that sees it. Comparisons with audience reactions to The Exorcist are being made and that's some serious praise.
