If you're a die hard PA fan and this will be a great movie. One of the best.

Good acting, and the twist at the end relative to the first PA was a good surprise

Jesse Arista just graduated from high-school. He buys a camera and begins filming everything. He lives in a low income apartment complex. One night, he and his friend Hector Estrella snakes a camera into another apartment and films their weird next door neighbor Anna performing a ritual on a beautiful woman. They and friend Marisol Vargas suspect witchcraft. Then Anna is found dead, and their schoolmate Oscar is involved. Also Jesse has been marked and develops supernatural powers.

This one is more similar to Chronicle than the rest of the Paranormal franchise. This is almost all hand-held camera work and no security camera footage. I like the style. It's like a Latino cousin to the original. It held my attention for a long time. It does reconnect to the original. I almost don't care either way. This movie works on its own. As for the young actors, they aren't anybody special or memorable. They do a convincing job being simple teens.

In Oxnard, California, the teenager Jesse (Andrew Jacobs) graduates in high-school and buys a camera in the pawnshop. Jesse lives in an apartment on the second floor of a small residential building with his father and grandmother and in the floor below lives Anna (Gloria Sandoval) that people use to say that is a witch. Jesse has two friends in the building, Hector (Jorge Diaz) and Marisol (Gabrielle Walsh).

When Anna is found dead in her apartment, the prime suspect is Jesse's schoolmate Oscar that had just left her apartment. Jesse, Hector and Marisol snoop around Anna's apartment and soon they find a sort of altar with photos of Oscar and Jesse. Then Jesse changes his behavior and soon they discover that Jesse was marked by evil witches. Will Hector and Marisol save Jesse from evil?

"Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones" has a reasonable story and a nice poster. However, the cheap camera work is annoying and lame garbage and ruins the movie. My vote is two.

Title (Brazil): "Atividade Paranormal: Marcados Pelo Mal" ("Paranormal Activity: Marked by Evil")
