Patzer
In the first few minutes of the film, when showing the flashback of the original Amityville murders in 1974, a shot of the Amityville Long Island Rail Road train station is shown. The train seen is a modern model that was only put in service after the year 2000. Also, what looks to be a very tall cell phone tower is clearly visible.

Zitate
Joan: God gave up on us, sweetheart, so I gave up on God.

Alternative Versionen
US prints remove Harvey Weinstein's executive producer credit, due to victims coming forward about the sexual assault and harassment they experienced at his hands in the many years prior to its release.

Mediocre.

I really wanted to like this movie - I went into with an open mind not really knowing what to expect from it as I had not read any of the reviews.

For me it lacked atmosphere, reminiscent of a made-for-TV or direct to DVD movie.

The idea of a family moving into the actual Defeo house 40 years on was an intriguing premise, but what I could not get past was the fact that the eldest daughter had no idea about the house and it's history until her new-found friends informed her, along with it's grisly back- story. Had she been living under a rock? At first I thought - OK, the movies don't exist in this universe but then they actually mention the movies, sequels and remake and even venture to watch the 1979 original.

Still, it was watchable and although there were the usual clichéd horror tropes it did hold my interest until the end.
