Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is a found-footage horror film that was released in 2014. Directed by Christopher Landon and produced by Jason Blum, the film is part of the popular Paranormal Activity franchise. It stars Andrew Jacobs, Jorge Diaz, and Gabrielle Walsh, among others. The movie is set within the same universe as the other Paranormal Activity movies, but it features a different cast of characters and a slightly different plot. The story follows a group of high school friends living in a working-class neighborhood in Oxnard, California. The main character, Jesse (Jacobs), and his best friend Hector (Diaz) decide to investigate a mysterious woman who lives in their building, only to discover that she is involved with dark, occult rituals.

As they delve deeper into the woman's past, strange things start happening to Jesse. He begins to experience bizarre visions and supernatural powers, leading him to believe that he has been marked by a demon. With the help of his friends and a few paranormal investigators, Jesse sets out to uncover the truth behind his paranormal experiences and stop the entity that seems to be targeting him.

One of the strengths of Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is its use of found footage. Like the other movies in the series, this film is presented as a series of home videos, security footage, and smartphone recordings. This style of filmmaking creates a sense of realism and immediacy that makes the horror feel more intense.

The movie also features a strong cast of actors, particularly the three leads. Andrew Jacobs delivers a convincing performance as Jesse, as he slowly descends into madness throughout the film. Jorge Diaz provides comic relief as Hector, but he also plays an important role in the story. Gabrielle Walsh is also excellent as Marisol, the mysterious woman that sets the events of the film in motion.

The movie's plot is both engaging and terrifying. The first half of the film is relatively slow-paced, as it focuses on Jesse and his friends and establishes the mystery surrounding the occult rituals. However, the second half of the film is filled with tense and frightening scenes as the demon's influence on Jesse becomes more pronounced. The climax of the film is particularly intense and satisfying, providing a fitting conclusion to the story.

Overall, Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is a worthy addition to the Paranormal Activity franchise. It successfully delivers plenty of scares while also expanding on the mythology established in the previous films. Fans of the series will likely enjoy this entry, and newcomers may find it to be a good entry point into the world of Paranormal Activity.

Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones is a 2014 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 24 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 5.0 and a MetaScore of 42.
