8. Paranormal Activity 2 (2010)

Profit: $77,144,539

Budget: $3,000,000

From the same production company that brought us Insidious, Paranormal Activity 2 served as a prequel/sequel to the first movie. The series brought us horror in a refreshingly new way, with scenes being shown in a “discovered film” sort of way, almost like a documentary. The second movie was not as profitable as the first one of course, which will make an appearance further on our list. Can you guess which spot it holds?
