BPS 305: How I Made $193M Off My Micro-Budget Film with Oren Peli

Oren Peli, an Israeli-American film producer, director, and
screenwriter, is the creative genius behind the horror sensation
Paranormal Activity. The movie single-handedly revolutionized the
found-footage genre and spawned a successful franchise, all while
being produced on a shoestring budget. In this article, we explore
Peli's background, the making of Paranormal Activity, and its
immense impact on the horror film industry.

Oren had always been fascinated by the world of movies. After
moving to the United States in his early twenties, Peli initially
worked as a software programmer. However, his passion for films
remained undiminished, and he soon turned his attention to
filmmaking. With no prior experience, Peli embarked on an ambitious
journey and created a movie that would leave a lasting impact on
the horror genre.
