Paramount listens to our demands and brings Paranormal Activity to Philly

POSTED: Wednesday, September 30, 2009, 2:00 PM

Filed Under: Movies

Remember on Monday when we put our foot down and demanded that Paramount bring shoestring-budget horror movie Paranormal Activity to Philadelphia? Well, they listened (/figured out that bringing a movie geared at college kids to a large metropolitan area with several universities was a good idea and didn't give a fuck about what we said. Whatever.)

Anyway, Paranormal Activity will screen this Friday at 12:01 a.m. (Thursday night/Friday morning, ya dig?) at the Bridge. Because they're not screening Paranormal Activity for critics, and this entire roll-out plan is a litmus test for the power of social media and user response, let us know what you think about if you go on Friday.

UPDATE: Buy tickets here.

Paranormal Activity, Fri., Oct. 2, 12:01 a.m., Bridge Cinema de Lux, 40th and Walnut streets, 215-386-3300, thebridgecinema.com.
