The Amityville Terror

man,this thing was awful.brutally awful.bad acting.bad writing.bad everything.it was not realistic.the characters were not believable in the slightest.this film uses the tag line "based on true events".that is such a cliché nowadays and means absolutely nothing.it is simply a marketing ploy to lure consumers in.there's really not a lot of positive things I can say for this piece of work.i just found the whole thing ridiculous and tedious.of course that's subjective.others may find this to be good movie.i did see a positive review on this site.the current rating of this movie on this site is 3.3/10.but for me,Amityville Terror is a 2/10

Why? That is the question. Why? I am a huge follower of anything relating to the Amityville Haunting case, especially 112 Ocean Ave. This movie has NO RELEVANCE whatsoever to this topic. It seems that they added the name Amityville into the title to encourage people to watch. I wouldn't bother! I bet the Defeo and Lutz families are turning over in the grave at this awful movie. Poor acting Poor story lines Poor everything. If you are looking for a scary, jumpy haunting movie, them I am afraid this is not what you'll be looking for. I was very excited when I sat in the movie theatre seat, coffee and popcorn all ready. The curtains opened, the lights went down, and the hairs on my neck stood tall. Fast forward half hour, and people around me were not taking any notice, nodding off to sleep, some even yawning.

A new family moves into the infamous house which doesn't look anything like the original house ( I guess it did burn down a few times). It doesn't take long for the mayhem to start and we get to see the crappy CGI. Compared to the last couple of Amityville outings like Amityville Playhouse (2015) and Amityville Death House (2015) this one is a masterpiece which isn't saying much. There is a couple different spins in the story and way more nudity and violence than the Amityville house is used to.

I thinks its best to stay away from Amityville films for a bit. I say that but as soon as something like Amityville Zombies comes out I'll probably watch it.

In all of the worst new horror movies a funny thing is happening, zero likable characters. When my friends and family and I everyone wants a horror movie we all have our favorite style one wants monster another slasher, someone else wants vampire and so on so it my take a while to pick and when we see a movie is shaping up to be crap we salvage movie night whit a sort of bad movie version of clue. The great thing about modern crap horror you hate almost all characters so It makes it very to root for how, when, and by who the characters are done away with. As you see I said nothing about this god awful piece of crap, I set out to savage this garbage movie but all that work had been done by others.

The only good thing I can say about this Amityville movie is the actress playing the mom is very hot. Everything else sucks. Story stinks, acting is terrible, direction is juvenile. Women in their late 20s and early 30s playing high school kids?? An entire town that is evil? Nothing about this movie bears any resemblance to the original story although supposedly this takes place in Amityville. Boring, boring, boring. How did this movie get made?? How can the cast consider themselves actors and actresses? Like I said the mom is very good looking but other than that I had zero interest in this. Seems entertainment industry makes films to feed their own egos because nothing about this is worth watching. Like much of today's films this one just plain stinks and insults the audience's intelligence.
