This is movie is really good, much better then the third, this movie can a get a bit silly at times but it works well with the rest of the movie, movie never gets boring, there is always something to keep you entertained.

One of the better movies in the series, I will give this movie 6 out of 10

Patty Duke stars as a recently widowed mother who takes her three children to live with her cold mother (Jane Wyatt) who's just gotten a strange present from her sister - a odd antique lamp that she got at a yard sale. And guess where it came from? That's right - the Amityville house. In the blink of an eye, this lamp has spread it's evil all throughout the house, making tea kettles piping hot, pushing black sludge through the water faucets, and lopping off teenage boy's hands in the garbage disposal. Even worse, the evil spirits are hellbent on possessing the youngest child in the family. Only a priest who was there at the Amityville house can save the family, but will he make it on time.

While the premise of The Evil Escapes is the very definition of ludicrous, it doesn't start out that bad. Duke's performance and her character are better defined that most characters in films of this ilk and you do feel for her. She's a single mother with no education who's doing the best she can and she's easy to relate to. In fact, Duke might give the film much more than it's worth. On the other hand, Jane Wyatt seems to be sleepwalking through most of her performance.

The Evil Escapes might do a better than average job of giving its character realistic, real world drama, it fails at the horror scenes and, since this is a horror film, that's unexcusable. It's TV movie restrictions don't help, but I can promise you that there are more nail biting episodes of Goosebumps out there.

The Evil Escapes might not be quite as bad as its reputation would have you believe, but it also feels like it pulls to many punches which keeps any sort of tension from every developing.

Completely awful TV-movie sequel which, if nothing else, has the fantastic Aron Whatshisface as the young "Different Strokes-esque" grandson Brian. Not only is he frighteningly pleasant, but he does happen to pick up a chainsaw in the basement and use it to make VROOOOOM-VROOOM noises. Ultimately, the chainsaw turns itself on and Brian's scary cheeks wobble as he tears apart the place only to be halted by the sheer strength of his grandmother (and some other old dear who fell down the stairs - brilliant!) and a huge bit of pipe she grabs from the wall. Possibly one of the best scenes in the history of movies. If only this was the plot of the whole movie and not a brief minute of film.

A fairly decent sequel without much connection to the original (tone or story-wise). Full of haunted house cliches despite it seeming unique somehow...perhaps thanks to the strength of the mostly female cast. It's middle of the road...not offensive, only mildly entertaining.

Surprisingly good 4th installment in the now tired franchise. This time a woman buys a lamp from the infamous Amityville house and sends it to some relatives that live in California. As soon as grandmother Jane Wyatt plugs it in, the evil forces make themselves at home. Good story, acting, and music score. ***1/2 out of *****. Skip the next installment "The Amityville Curse" and get "Amityville '92: It's About Time" and the two that follow after that.
