Amityville Cult

I have seldom come accross a movie that I feel so strongly about within the first 10 minutes...and I couldn't bring myself to watch more than that!

From the outset, the acting, and by that, the direction, is appaling. The cinematography is appaling. The sound engineering is appaling.

I'm always willing to give a low-budget movie a chance, but this one was wholly undeserving.

I do not recommend it at all.

I can not believe actors that can act is so expensive you take the first ones who audition, but it seems like it.

I usually give B-horror some chances. Thinking about budget etc I don't expect much, but this is just bad through and through. The plot is ok. It could have been good. The main character is among the worst actors I have seen. He was one of those read from the script actors. The others did not blow my mind either. They are in the right category with the B flick, but of course there's always room for improvement.

I will not recommend this at all. The good grades have to be from people who knows the writer/director or some of the actors. No one with an eye for quality will give this move a good grade.

We watched this on Tubi. Film isnt masterpiece but it has its entertaining moments. Ive seen better but Ive also seen a lot worse. Good acting and storyline.

It's a low budget movie and I don't mind watching them. There are many low budget movies that are great.

This though........ The acting isn't quite there. The effects, script etc just FEELS cheap.

Found their Facebook posts about their trailer. A few excited people. Going to guess they're the ones who rated this.

This was sent to me with some other films, I was willing to give it a shot despite having only a few films I consider good in the Amityville franchise (Or at least those using its name) that being The Original Amityville Horror, the 2005 remake, Amityville 2 : The Possession (My favorite), Amityville It's About Time and The Amityville Murders (A loose remake of Amityville 2). Those are all very well done and good. Like I said, With all the horrific and silly mass of films I would never even watch one of the sillier things (Amityville shark and Amityville karen and ridiculous stuff like that).

So when this dvd was in a few sent to me I gave it a go. I will say instantly I don't give high scores to any film less than 90 minutes so that's an instant point loss. But in its defense, the acting was ok, and this tried to be serious and tell a story. It wasn't slapstick or parody and embarrassing, it was a just a small indie film that tried to tell a little horror story and it was a decent watch. Not really any bad things to say about it, it did what it could with its budget and ability and I didn't leave it feeling like I needed to throw it away or out of my collection. So I'd say it was at least one of the serious ones and an alright watch. I gave it a 5/10 to help make up for the usual and typical troll scores well known to this site. In truth, I'd give it a 4.4/10 in honesty and for effort,
