The new Paramount horror movie “Paranormal Activity,” which has been dubbed the new “Blair Witch Project,” managed to make it to number 5 at the US box office this week, despite the fact that the movie was made with a very low budget of $11,000.

According to mns.co.uk, “Paranormal Activity,” which was shot with a camcorder and has unknown stars and crew, debuted at the weekend, to $7.1 million in sales. This came as quite a surprise, considering it was only shown in around 160 screens.
