Critics Consensus

Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin gives the long-running found-footage franchise a new level of visual polish; unfortunately, effective scares are few and far between.

This incarnation of the Paranormal Activity films is plenty effective... These actors are just excellent at playing the material.

1.5/4

It's clearly an original story that's been slapped with the Paranormal Activity label and that only adds to the sense that there's little creative depth here.

No longer bound by tired mythology, Next of Kin presents a new supernatural mystery through its most polished effort yet. If only it included tension and scares, too.

While it doesn’t carry on with the same content that we came to love in Paranormal Activity 1-3, it does have a solid premise, a great setting, and some decent scares.

3.5/5

Once it gets to the third act, it goes hard. It also has one of my favorite climaxes I’ve seen in a found footage film, as the action and horror become unrelenting. It knows what it wants to be and it delivers on the scares in the third act.

Eh, it was okay, not as memorable but I don’t really have any to say about this, it has good jump scares, but nothing beats the OG cast. 5.8/10

It doesn't have any sense. It's bad written and the plot it's weak. It's too much centered on the monster rather than the idea of keeping the viewer scared.

They got the last name "Beiler" wrong. Actors didn't look Amish at all. But entertaining. The scary parts weren't scary. Clearly not enough Amish studied but a decent movie.
