Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

If you enjoyed The Exorcist and the original Amityville Horror film then you might get a kick out of Amityville 2: The Possession. This movie is based on the story of Ronald DeFeo Jr., the man that killed his family in real life - he was tried and convicted of 2nd Degree Murder.The original Amityville Horror film is based on the real story of George and Kathy Lutz who left the home 28 days after of living there - claiming it was haunted.It is safe to say that Amityville 2 is a prequel to Amityville Horror. Both films are worth watching if you like haunted houses and demon possession stories.8/10

There are some good ideas in this prequel to "The Amityville Horror", but unfortunately the filmmakers weren't able to make all of them gel together. We get a crumbling family drama, we have a possessed house drama, and we also get a good rehash of "The Exorcist". The movie might have worked if one basic theme was settled on. Actually, there is a bigger problem with the movie. Despite the varied plot, as well as a good dash of exploitative elements ranging from gore to incest, most of the movie plays out in a surprisingly drab manner. Director Damiano Damiani simply doesn't put in enough juice for the most part to really draw in the viewer. There are some good touches by Damiani here and there - for example, some of the camera-work is impressive, and there are some nifty old school special effects - but it's not enough to save the whole package. I've seen a lot worse, I admit... but I have also seen a lot that is better.

This is a very scary movie. It is better then the 1979 original version of The Amityville horror. It has a great story line. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. Amiyville 4 the evil escapes is better. Amityville curse is also better. Amityville the new generation is also better. Amityville dollhouse. is also better. The 2005 remake of The Amityville horror is also better. This is a great film. See it. It is very scary. 5.4 is underrating this great horror film. I give it 9 out 10. This is one of the scariest movie from 1982. It is scary then The Amityville horror (1979). This is a great movie see it.

Loose prequel to the original tells the story of the previous family to inhabit the cursed house on 112 Ocean Avenue. The Montellis(renamed from the DeFeos) move in with high hopes but are doomed by a demonic voice that speaks to Sonny, the troubled son, who strikes back against his brutish lout of a father, nearly killing him with a rifle. The evil in the house torments him further, and creates much poltergeist activity before driving Sonny to murder his whole family, then after he is arrested, the family's priest(played by James Olsen) performs an exorcism on him when he returns to the house.Truly appalling film ignores the facts of the case in favor of lurid, crass exploitation, which also shamelessly rips off other horror pictures, mainly "The Exorcist". Good cast cannot salvage this junk.
