Oren Peli’s ‘Area 51’ Finally Coming This May!

Briefly: I was a huge fan of Oren Peli’s Paranormal Activity. I saw it as an extremely original film in a sea of (at the time) terrible horror, and though it spawned a few less-than-stellar sequels (and a couple of great ones), it’s still a franchise that I’m very interested in.

Shortly after completing Paranormal Activity, Peli directed another found footage film titled Area 51. Production of the film officially began in 2009, there were reshoots in 2013, and we’ve heard almost nothing of the picture since.

Now, six years later, Oren Peli’s Paranormal Activity follow-up is just a few weeks away. The film will hit Alamo Drafthouse theatres from May 15-17, and finally be available for our viewing pleasure on May 15th.

You can check out the trailer for the film below, and be sure to let us know if you’re as excited for this one as I am!
