The Amityville Legacy

When a vintage clapping monkey toy from the original Amityville house is gifted to a father he becomes possessed and turns on his family.

Basically the same general concept as every other Amityville film.

The difference here is the film was made on a budget comparable with the value of 2 Freddo Bars & a Twinkie.

Awfully shot, stupid light effects, poor audio quality and an instantly forgettable cast there isn't much to credit the movie on.

Just when you think all these Amityville cashins can't get worse they do.

Stick to the originals or better yet don't bother.

The Good:

It's fairly short

The Bad:

Ridiculous light effects

Its just plain terrible

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

When an inanimate toy monkey is the most charismatic part of the cast you know you have a problem

Bad enough to warrant a review.

It's 58 minutes long, with another 8 minutes of slowly dragging credits(but that features a My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult song, so that boosts this flick up one star).

There's no budget.

There is a plot.

There is a drone used for some footage.

Watching this for free is still a waste of time unfortunately. If you like bad movies, this isn't one for you. God, the Asylum did a better Amityville movie than this. THE FCKING ASYLUM.

This is a bad movie, there's no shame in that, it's just really really bad.

Oh, my. As a professional reviewer and someone who writes horror and consumes any and every bit of horror out there, it breaks my heart to post such a bad review. If you don't know how much of ones' self goes into the writing of a script and then, the miracle of, getting it produced, I hate to burst the bubble of anyone with a dream.

Sadly, every single person involved in this horrible project must never - I repeat, NEVER - quit their day job.

If only I could have given it less than a star.

Sadly, I confused this with a REAL industry feature - Amityville: The Awakening - which will be out in 2017.

Please don't do the same! kT ~xXxo™

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. The acting is below subpar, the dialogue is was horrible and the direction was bad. It was very monotone, slow and pretty boring really. I beg, don't watch this movie. As I said, I love bad movies, but this one is up with Rubber and birddemic (sp). I am physically sick after watching this piece of crap

Forty years after the murders at the Amityville house, a small group of family members travel to see their father "Mark Janson" (Mark Popejoy) at his home in Nebraska to celebrate his fiftieth birthday. Naturally, since it's his birthday, they all bring gifts with one in particular being a toy monkey that was picked up at a gift store in Amityville a few says before. Unfortunately, as it so happens, this toy monkey was taken from the Amityville house and is possessed by the evil spirit that dwelt there. To that effect, the spirit soon manifests itself to Mark and tries to convince him to kill as many of his family members as he can. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was a cheap, low-budget production which directly suffered as a result with a poorly written script, wooden acting, and very little suspense to show for it. In short, I don't consider this to be a good movie by any stretch of the imagination, and I have rated it accordingly.
