Amityville Playhouse

A true slap in the face to film. 15 minutes in I could not watch another minute.

There is no story line and the cover supposedly shows an image of the theater when in face it looks nothing like that. I agree to the fullest with the other reviews that when you use a word like Amityville in your title, you better be able to back it up.

High school film projects have less flaws. The main actress is a disgrace to acting, she must be the writer or directors daughter. All in all, I wouldn't wish this movie to be watched by my own worst enemy. I'm doing you all a favor with this review I'm sorry but it really is as bad as I'm portraying it Do yourself a favor and warn others as well. You have been warned....

Amityville Playhouse has no association with the original Amityville films, lets say that right from the start. It is a very slow, dull film, with shaky camera and below par acting. I struggle to tell where the budget for this film was actually spent. Usually I would try and find something to redeem a film, but I am really struggling with this production. I do not think even decent acting could salvage this script. It had no real substance to the story line, I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing ever did. It is an absolute travesty that they used the name Amityville to try and lure people into watching this film.

Acting was the worst I have ever seen in my entire life. It was so bad I even had to threaten Virgin Media that if they did not refund me, I would leave them for another service provider.

Sir I am sorry, we can not give you a refund "A gaggle of thoroughly obnoxious college students decide to spend the weekend in an abandoned Amityville cinema that one of the kids inherited from her dead parents. Of course it's haunted and a bunch of bad stuff happens: bad special effects, deliciously lousy scriptwriting, cack- handed direction and, above all, truly atrocious acting, attaining a level of ineptitude and woodenness that would shame the cheapest amateur porn film.

In fact, it's so bad one starts to wonder if it's all not some kind of elaborate satanic joke that induces a kind of giddy, demonic hilarity."

Your refund will be credited to your next statement Sir.

I will rate this film a 2. That's me being generous as the acting was extremely poor and nothing whatsoever happens in this film. I usually watch films several times before I make a opinion but I won't be watching this film again. I was extremely disappointed as the DVD cover looked very impressive and spooky. Completely opposite to the film. No acting.looked very fake.and just generally disappointed me. When you hear the word 'amytiville' you expect something brilliant brilliant. Iv watched many films involving amytiville and they were definitely worth the watch. Could have been so much better. So all in all dissatisfied and don't recommend but each to there own some people may enjoy. I just won't be watching it again. I felt I should write a review as I have watched many films but this one left me speechless due to the acting.

The acting (with the cringe-worthy, yet oddly humorous script playing an equal part) was sooo bad, I frequently burst out laughing. Yet, I couldn't turn it off. It was one of those "so bad, it's good" kind of movies. I imagined this would have possibly frightened me if I was a child, or perhaps an anxious teen...

Nothing at all significant happens and you may find yourself scratching your head in confusion as the credits roll, but it will give you something to laugh about if you can let go of any expectations and approach this movie light-heartedly. I would actually recommend this to those who can appreciate a really wonderfully awful movie. :)
