Reception
Chris Ball of The Plain Dealer called the film a "very silly, mildly suggestive, mostly dumb 2012 spoof". Rod Lott of the Oklahoma Gazette wrote that the film is juvenile and "simply not funny". Lauren Taylor of Bloody Disgusting rated it 3/5 stars and wrote, "Ultimately, if you like goofball movies in the realm of Scary Movie, you’ll like Supernatural Activity. It is a well made film with a plot that is so bad that it's pretty good." Mark L. Miller of Ain't It Cool News wrote, "While the film does have its fair share of groaners, ... it makes up for it with some clever gags". TGM of HorrorTalk rated it 2/5 stars and wrote, "I'm convinced that if Mr. Pozza parodied a genre that wasn’t so creatively exhausted that he has it in him to write a truly hilarious movie. Unfortunately this  one isn't it." Rohit Rao of DVD Talk rated it 1.5/5 stars and wrote, "There's more of a creative spark here than your average Friedberg/Seltzer collaboration but the payoff is still severely lacking." David Johnson of DVD Verdict wrote, "Whatever Supernatural Activity is, you should steer clear. The laughs are entirely absent, the melodrama is weird and nonsensical, and the whole thing wound up being one of the slowest 90-minute experiences of my life."
