Critics Consensus

Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin gives the long-running found-footage franchise a new level of visual polish; unfortunately, effective scares are few and far between.

I appreciated the change of setting. I'd watched all the other films in this series and they had become somewhat stale and formulaic. This film is very different from the others. Pretty silly but with enough scares to justify a watch.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Slightly too long but at least this one provides something a little different or at least the movie is willing to rip off different things.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

This incarnation of the Paranormal Activity films is plenty effective... These actors are just excellent at playing the material.

It's clearly an original story that's been slapped with the Paranormal Activity label and that only adds to the sense that there's little creative depth here.

Rated: 1.5/4

Bloody Disgusting

No longer bound by tired mythology, Next of Kin presents a new supernatural mystery through its most polished effort yet. If only it included tension and scares, too.

Rated: 2.5/5

Film Focus Online

The underutilization of found footage is completely unforgivable, causing the movies best asset to become its weakest link.

Rated: 2/5

There are too many elements of film that never quite land

Gayly Dreadful

Once it gets to the third act, it goes hard. It also has one of my favorite climaxes I’ve seen in a found footage film, as the action and horror become unrelenting. It knows what it wants to be and it delivers on the scares in the third act.

Rated: 3.5/5
