...Show us heads exploding, chests busting, legs sawed off. Yet the packed audience at a late-night screening of Paranormal Activity in Times Square this past week didn't need gore effects to be scared witless. Yes, they knew it was only a movie - one that, like The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield and plenty others before it, used "found footage" to give a patina of realism to the fanciful events that were dreamed up by writer-director Oren Peli and are endured by actors Micah Sloat and Katie Featherston (using their real names).

The villains of the show, Communist sympathizer Pink Lady Bobbie Sox and nefarious Communist potato Spud Nick, devise a plan to freeze the world...
...critics of President Harry Truman's national health-care plan. From 1945 to 1960, the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC)--which was founded in 1938 to hunt down suspected Nazi sympathizers--interrogated more than 3,000 people. And in 1950, Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy launched his infamous witch hunts for communists in the Federal Government. When no evidence backing his charges emerged, the Senate censured...
