Written and directed by Christopher Landon, “Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones” continues the theme of mysterious forces laying claim to unsuspecting victims. In the fifth installment of the lucrative franchise, Jesse (Andrew Jacobs) discovers an inhuman bite mark on his arm, seemingly a sign that he has become “marked.” As the ominous forces pursue Jesse, his family and friends attempt to ward off the dark spirits and save him.
