    Paranormal Activity 3 Slays Real Steel, Footloose at Box Office

    Real Steel may have topped the box office last week, but it wasn't tough enough to brave the supernatural thriller Paranormal Activity 3.

    Other openers this weekend received just a fraction of viewers' love when compared to Paranormal 3: Orlando Bloom's The Three Musketeers grossed $8.8 million and Rowan Atkinson's Johnny English Reborn brought in just $3.8 million.

      2 Timothy 1:7 states, "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear...." Therefore, I have no choice but to conclude that horror films such as "Paranormal Activity 3" are of the devil because they were created to inspire fear.

      That is all.

      PA3 was a prety decent movie actually. My only complaint was that it was a little long. The scary parts were really freaky though and the ending had a good twist to it. I enjoyed myself. :)
