The Amityville Horror (2005)
On November 14, 1974, police received a frantic phone call that led them to a grisly crime scene at the Defeo residence in Amityville, Long Island – an entire family had been slaughtered in their beds. In the days that followed, Ronald Defeo confessed to methodically shooting his parents and four siblings while they slept. He claimed "voices" in the house drove him to commit the murders. One year later, George and Kathy Lutz and their children moved into the house thinking it would be their dream home. But shortly after settling in, bizarre and unexplainable events began to occur – nightmarish visions and haunting voices from an evil presence still lurking within the house. (read more)

Be forewarned: I have not watched the original to my recollection. I say that because I am starting to realize that I might have seen certain older movies in the horror genre in passing but didn't sit down to digest them.

It is based on a true...

Being that the original Amityville Horror was not to big with the critics, it became a classic, mainly because of the house. Which was freaky. I had a strong feeling that the remake was going to fail, well it definaitely fell with the critics, and failed by me. While the original house returns to continue to haunt our...

I hadn't seen all of the original going into this movie. I tried it a couple of years ago, but got scared and never finished watching it. I have nothing to compare it to so I probably like it more than some who have seen the original. I had no idea how the story ended, I didn't want to spoil it by reading summaries. :) ...

The remake of "Amityville Horror". Documentary maker Andrew Douglas' first feature film is a keeper. It isn't as scary as the first "Amityville Horror" (which is a classic of the 70's cheese genre) but it is much more shocking.
