MonsterPerfect Good idea lost in the noise

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

jacobjohntaylor1 This is the tenth part to The Amityville series The Amityville horror is better. Amityville II possession is better. Amityville 3 the demon is better. Amityville 4 the evil escapes is better. The Amityville cure is better. Amityville it's about time is better. Amityville a new generation is better.The Amityville dollhouse is better. The AmityvIlle death house is better. And that is an awful movie. This movie has an awful story line. The acting is awful. The ending is awful. It is not scary. It a very disappointing sequel. Do not wast your money. And do not wast your time. Do not see this awful movie. I need more lines and I am running out of thing to say.

needabiggerboat1975 I really dug this so I was amazed to come to the IMDb and see how low the rating is. I guess people see the Amityville name and expect a big budget studio production like the Ryan Reynolds remake so it bums them out when they're offered up a low budget movie instead. I have no idea where all the hate is coming from because I enjoyed seeing a ghost story that didn't just have a series of pointless jump scares and no story. The movie actually tried to tell a story and at times it played kind of like a drama with the deep issues of the lead character. Looking up the real story of the DeFeo family and the indians on the land in Amityville it looks like this movie stayed pretty close to the truth. Some of the back stories of the inmates reminded me of real life people like the female inmate who seems to be based on one of the Manson family girls. Some of the dialog was really deep with discussions about religion and death going on between characters which I thought was unusual for a low budget flick. You don't often get much philosophy talk in films made for twenty thousand dollars! The shootings at the end were realistic too and quite startling. Yeah there were some false notes like one or two of the performances weren't the best because I guess you don't get Hollywood actors for this budget but overall I was interested in finding out how the story was going to be resolved and I thought the ending was quite unexpected and shocking. An under rated movie for sure.

mary-laking I should have known when I saw "Amityville" in the title......I thought the pace was iceberg-slow, the acting terrible and the plot didn't hang together. What was all that stuff about Lisa's mother? She was mentioned several times, but there was no real explanation as to how she fitted into the story. Then they threw in ghosts, presumably when they couldn't think what else to do. If you're going to do that, people, don't bring them on screen and then just dump them! Like the mother, you're left wondering as to their purpose. And just a small, silly point, but you tend to notice things when the film is irritating you - what was with Delaney, played by a British actor, who seemed to be sporting some sort of German or Middle European accent? Just asking.Very disappointing.

Boloxxxi Low-budget, claustrophobic (shot indoors and confined spaces), chat-fest about a young woman who gets a cleaning job at a mental institution where she contends with intimidating and creepy staff (one guy, actually), seeing people that aren't there, and "ward X" for the criminally insane who talk to her while she's down there cleaning the hallway.The premise of this would-be or can't-be horror movie is that the asylum is built on the same spot as the famous Amityville house of the 70's (ergo the title of the movie) and before that, earlier on in the 18th century, where witchcraft practicing native-Americans were murdered by Christians.I did not have high hopes (ha, ha) going into this thing, but it struck me in the early go that the acting was actually quite good and the performers serious and convincing. So that kind of hooked me, got my hopes up a bit (ha, ha, again). About mid-way, after seeing a poorly executed mirror scene (a tradition in many horror movies) that was supposed to spook me, my hopes suddenly plummeted. I had found the weakness of this movie: The scenes that were supposed to scare you, horrify you, and gross you out (what little there was) were very amateurish and lame (weak). Reader, you're better off if you grab a chair, go to a window of your house and look out. I assure you that whatever you see will be as interesting as this movie. So why bother? Love, Boloxxxi.
