'Paranormal 2' trailer too scary
The trailer for new horror movie Paranormal Activity 2 has been pulled from cinemas in Texas because of complaints it is too scary.

The promo for the film started to run in movie theatres prior to midnight screenings of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse on Wednesday.

The clip caused cinema-goers to complain to bosses at the Cinemark chain about the frightening footage.

U.S. host Ryan Seacrest even took to his Twitter.com page to warn film fans about the trailer, writing, "Paranormal Activity 2 teaser trailer... hold someone."

Officials at Cinemark have now removed the promo from a number of complexes in Texas, reports Variety.

they couldn't get better PR for a horror movie than for the target audience to claim it was so scary it had to be taken out of previews in theaters!

Yeah I have to agree that the first movie was crap. That means this one will be even more so. There hasn't been a great horror movie done is such a long time. We need to get back to work on some new material. We need another Shining, or Silence of the Lambs. Something with depth. I have always found that something that actually can happen is much scarier than not. Just seems like the studios are making the movies for the tween kids. I should make a movie and scare the hell out of you.
