I actually thought the PA films were pretty shit.
The fact that you got it on a DVD out from the store means that there is NO WAY that you can fall into believing it is real.
No matter what, I just can't manage to get over the fake medium barrier for all those 'found tapes' films.
If I had downloaded PA off a dodgy website linked to me on 4chan though, maybe I would be more freaked.
I would like to see some more genuinely unsettling horror films but I think that horror films need to be aware that when people are watching they know that they are watching a film, and take that into consideration.
This will be contentious, but I think that is what makes Lynch films so unsettling. Very arguable though.
