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. :)

The Plot

Following the tragic death of her parents Fawn Harriman discovers she has inherited a theatre in the town of Amityville.

She, along with 3 friends, decides to spend the weekend there looking the place over.

Meanwhile one of her High School teachers begins an investigation into the village's past and makes a connection with something that goes back beyond recorded history.

Lovely.

If you like no production values.

If you like the worst acting ever.

If you like hollow sounding audio.

If you like poorly written and directed films, you might like this movie.

They should have included "horror" in the title because it's horrible.

Nothing -- and i mean nothing -- happens in this movie. It is a stinker

Was highly disappointed at the lack of acting. I genuinely felt the person doing casting went to the nearest mall, stood in the center of the food court, closed his/her eyes and span in a circle with their finger pointed out. I could hardly get past the first 15 minutes of the film. Asides from the acting, the plot itself was nothing special. Nothing really happened throughout, and when things did happen, the scene just made me cringe at how poorly it was done. This is a disgrace to the Amityville franchise and should never have been given the green light. I advise all horror fans to disregard this film at all costs and just wait for the legit one to release later this year.

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....

So here's yet another person who thinks they can try their luck at writing and directing a 'horror' movie simply because they are a fan of horror movies and fresh out of college. The writer and director (I used those words loosely ) is sure a fan of the original Amityville the he decided to investigate and see if you could make a film using the Amityville name whilst having nothing at all to do with err... Amityville.

So first off what he did was insult many fans of the original movies.

The writer and director even admitted that only 3 people EVER went to see this movie on its short cinema release. Those 3 people being the writer himself and 2 producers. Says a lot right there.

Don't even read on.. Don't give this trash any more attention and it should go away.

Chances are if you're watching a non-80s or even 90s amityville film you know you're in for bottom of the barrel stuff.

Amityville Theater is no exception. Extremely light on horror elements, this plays more like a mystery thriller and a bad one at that.

The camerawork is decent which is about the only positive thing I can say about this film.

Only for the Amityville completists, everyone else watch your community theater, they probably do a better job.

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.

This movie was filmed just for fun in my hometown of Neepawa Manitoba. A bunch of high school kids volunteered and locals went to the ROXY theater to enjoy it. I was sitting in one of the very seats that it shows on film, which felt kind of cool! But if you were expecting a talented cast and elaborate story than you may be s little disappointed

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.

And some of the characters are so irritating that you want them to die, so they do not say any more of the embarrassing script.

The only reason why this gets a 2 and not 1, is the goth chick is cute and not as cringeworthy when she spoke...

What a movie, i stop watching after 10 minutes becease of the actors. Sorry not even one star worth.

God this is tedious. And the acting is terrible. Really awful. Imagine filming yourself reading a book out in a monotone voice. And repeat that film over and over. It would be more interesting and better performed than this.

If you're thinking that this Amityville instalment is on par with the previous instalments in this franchise you'll be sadly disappointed. The acting alone is just so amateur. You'd be forgiven for thinking these actors came straight out of a porn movie with the dialogue and acting. It's a shame as the previous movies were made quite well but this is just a rip off on the cheap. The music has been robbed from Halloween also. You just get the impression that a student has been given the green light to make this and they've just got the first actors out of stage school and overlaid it with horror stereotypes. This franchise should be left to the pros. All in all it was a bad decision to make this in it's current format.

The wooden acting was more of a killer than anything else in the film!! Hate to say it, but it's probably the worst film I've seen in a long time!

There are fences that need painting.

Drains that need unblocking.

Bellybuttons to clean.

All of these things are more worthy of your time than this 'film'.

Just don't. Find anything else to do. Watch repeats of Only fools and horses if you absolutely must (that's more horror than this) but just don't give in to this, you'll be wondering how anyone would have got an equity card or the US equiv.

Why does this need me to write so many characters for a review when there are films that just aren't worthy of words?

It was late at night and I was scared the whole way through. All the twists and turns really caught me off guard. It was like I was actually haunted by a ghost.

At one point I found myself freaking out because it felt like the ghost was right in front of me. The effects seemed almost too surreal to even exist in my opinion, I still can't get the ghost's image out of my head for better or for worse. If you've ever seen a ghost in real life then you will know the feeling of what this movie made me feel inside. It was a rather horrifying experience.

Then I woke up.

As 1 is the lowest I could possibly rate this film I have to say it doesn't even deserve that.

Being another cash-in from the Amityville name this one really is an insult to every 'horror' film ever made, it's even worse than Blair Witch 2: Book of Shadows and that's saying A LOT!

The story (a generous description) is so clichéd that it bears no essence of even trying to be original, the 'acting' (I can't think of a word bad enough) has all the charisma of a block of bad cheese with the characters being totally unrelatable and you wonder why people this horrible would actually be friends. Maybe it's some sort of karma for each of them for things done in a previous life? To be honest I don't really care, it's just not good.

Not really sure what the purpose of this film is, it doesn't add anything, don't go anywhere and as films go quite pointless, I think it went straight to DVD as I can't imagine anyone actually going to the cinema to see this rubbish!

Oh yeah, special effects were crap too!

I'll be honest; I just put this movie on as background noise while doing other things. The acting, on all parts, is so far beyond bad that I suddenly realize that there actually does take a modicum of talent to act (aka "play pretend").

The audio is equally as bad.

In fact, it's all so bad that I don't plan on actually watching it at this point, to follow the plot. It must've taken quite an effort to round up this many atrocious actors in one place at one time. I didn't think it was possible until I saw this.

Alright. I realize that this movie is not the best out there. However, it is also not as awful as some of the other reviewers are making it out to be For something that was created presumably out of love, on likely no budget with presumably local volunteer actors, why not cut them some slack? I mean honestly. Watching this with some friends in the spirit of Halloween, we have genuinely seen worst acting at a higher level. For everything that they had to work with this honestly wasn't that bad. Does it live up to the AmityVille title? No. Does that really matter? Also no. Congrats to anyone who was a part of this, I imagine it was an exciting experience.
