Affleberry F This one seems to have been ill received. I think this was really when people started to get tired with the whole story/concept of this franchise, & then it really went off the rails with Next Of Kin. I liked some of what they did with Ghost Dimension, the ending really starts to pick up, but it sort of falls flat. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review Jude H. The Ghost dimension is one of the most interesting but terrible movies out there if that makes sense. The whole way you’re interested and this movie finally gives us answers to the other movies. The runtime is short but this movie isn’t as AWFUL as part 4 but doesn’t mean it’s great. This is by far the least scariest Paranormal activity movie and it becomes like a later slasher movie from the late 80s. The acting and dialog is really bad. But it does have a good house Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/11/25 Full Review Lawrence C A dumb premise that leads to bloodless series of embarrassingly bad non-events. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/04/24 Full Review Korra N By far the worst PA film, The Ghost Dimension takes all the worst parts of the franchise and doubles down on them, while removing everything interesting and good, save for a couple moments of solid effects work. Even as a fan of Paranormal Activity, I can't recommend this. Jaws: The Revenge was a more entertaining sequel, and that says something. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/20/24 Full Review Dan R 'Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension' dropped in 2015 and really ramped up the franchise to make some startling reveals and tie up this ongoing story. SYNOPSIS: 'Using a special camera that can see spirits, a family must protect their daughter from an evil entity with a sinister plan.' As per 'Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension' the original synopsis I'd read led me into believing this story was going in a different direction. I was wrong, and this film is probably more connected than the other sequels. This film looks to fill in some of the gaps, and answer questions, which came from the third film's ending. It does this really well, through archival video footage, which has its own spooky foreboding. What we realise here though is there's a grand conspiracy, probably national, to satisfy the demon 'Tobi' and his followers. It's a lot bigger than I think anyone following this franchise could've ever believed. And that's brilliant! There's a real story here. That plus some incredible practical effects, dark tension and jump scares aplenty makes this a brilliant watch. Especially if, like me, you're invested in this story. I do have a couple of issues though: 1) if the camera they find is the camera from the third film, and it can see spirits now, why couldn't it see spirits in the third film? 2) did we really need to see 'Tobi'? Or this gooey liquid thing which looks like something out of 'House of Haunted Hill'? If you're going to do it make the CGI look good. This is a big failure here and knocks this film down for me. Not the films fault, but I was gutted to find out the version I was watching had the alternative 'nice' family ending and not the bloody scarefest the film was originally released with. Annoying. At the time of release this was to be the last film in the franchise and I guess it would've been a satisfying closure to the story. Unfortunately there's more to come. However, this is a great addition to the franchise and only falls down by trying to show the viewer too much. 7/10 Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/20/24 Full Review R-T T Paranormal activity:The Ghost Dimension is the stupidest attempt to parasitize a beloved franchise! It's not even worth the attention! Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/22/24 Full Review Read all reviews
