‘Paranormal Activity’ Gets A Japanese Sequel With ‘Tokyo Night’
  |  @   |  

Icon Home Entertainment has announced the upcoming DVD release of Paranormal Activity: Tokyo Night, the officially sanctioned Japanese sequel to 2009’s docu-horror Paranormal Activity.

This direct-to-DVD sequel to Oren Peli’s horror hit will be released in the UK on March 7, 2011.

Typically, its been U.S. filmmakers who adapt Japanese horror films for American audiences, like what was done with The Ring and The Grudge, but for Paranormal Activity: Tokyo Night, Japanese director Toshikazu Nagae has done the reverse, with input from the original U.S. producers.

And this time, there’s TWO bedrooms and apparently, twice the fear!

See below for the official synopsis, as well as a still from the movie.

When someone makes a movie for less than a new car ($15,000) and it goes on to make over $100 million at the box office, you can guarantee yourself that a sequel is not too far off.

The first movie’s captain, Oren Peli, has already lined up a new job doing a similar movie involving aliens called Area 51, and it was he who was happy to announce who would be taking over for him on Paranormal 2 via the official website.
