This film essentially begins with a motorist being pulled over for a speeding ticket and then being brutally beaten to death by what appears to be monstrous figure wearing a police uniform. The scene then shifts to a homeless man being woken up from his sleep and subsequently killed by the same police officer. Naturally, after his body is taken to the morgue, an investigation is opened up but, with few clues to go by, neither "Detective Miller" (Jason Toler) nor his partner "Detective Val" (Nicole D'Angelo) know where to begin looking. Further complicating the issue is the testimony by a local drunk that a demon in a police uniform was responsible. Yet despite the skepticism expressed by Detective Miller, this news comes as quite a shock to the precinct supervisor "Captain Benson" (Jeffrey Moon) who has been afraid of this development for almost 20 years. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that I wasn't too disappointed with this film for the simple reason that I didn't expect very much from it in the first place. The acting was bad, the plot lacked depth, and the script could have used significant improvement as well. Not only that, but it became quite clear early on that this was one of those films that slapped the name of "Amityville" onto its title simply to draw more viewers. And, having watched the film in its entirety, I fully understand why viewers haven't flocked to see it. It's an awful film, and I have rated it accordingly.
