If you belive in demon's from hell or demons from a bad place then you will find it scary! If you don't belive in any of that stuff, like me, then you wont find it scary. If you live in a house that has creepy rooms and creeky floor boreds and there are alot of unexplained noises in your home, i wouldn't watch it.

Paranormal Activity isn't exactly a scary movie, it doesnt have gory scenes or alot of violence, what makes it scary is the main idea of the movie (ghosts,spirits,possesion...)

Answer

I thought it was pretty darn scary. Actually, I enjoyed it so much, I watched it 2 times in one night, and then another 2 times a few days later.

The fact that it isn't violent doesn't mean it's not a Horror movie. The horror movie genre is not defined by gore or violence. Rather, horror movies are defined by their intent. If a movie is primarily intended to scare people, then it's a horror movie.

Violence are gore are often a part of horror movies, but that is merely incidental. Most people are afraid of being attacked violently, so naturally, violence and gore often find their way into movies that are intended to scare people.

The primary purpose of a horror movie is to scare people, and there are many, many things that people are afraid of besides violence. It is often said that what man fears most is the unknown. That is how supernatural horror movies manage to be scary, without being violent.

Paranormal Activity is one of those movies that explores our fear of the unknown. In my opinion, what lies beyond our notion of physical reality will always be much more terrifying than even the most extreme forms of violence.
