The Amityville Moon

Decently promising film sadly made into garbage due to the acting which clearly would be the director (casting departments) fault. I mean we're all these people extras who never had attended one class? To be fare this write/director seems to only do E for Effort films. If the people involved aren't students trying to learn then wow. To have money must be nice just to waste it like this.

Overall only what if you are a glutton for torture and have mental issues preventing you from not finding and watching worst than student quality films. The only decent actor was the priest (with the beard).....

It was decent movie. I definitely seen a lot worse. The story was pretty good but you really don't find out till the end.

The werewolf was fairly decent as far as makeup again there are much worse portrayals of werewolves in some of the movies out there.

I'm not sure why all the hate on this one. Yes, it's clearly a B-Rate / C-Rate movie, the acting is not great by any means, and the lighting is pretty dim but for what it is, it's pretty good. They took care, on a very small budget mind you, with limited special effects and put their effort into making a decent werewolf costume and transformation. For a B-Rate, it's a pretty good attempt I'd say. I think for what it is, they did a really good job at working with what they had. Know what it is when you go into it. It's a B movie made for the love of werewolf movies! For those folks like me who hunt for werewolf movies, I thought this was one of the better B attempts out there as far as script, special effects, and choreography were concerned. Solid effort!

Well, granted, this 2021 horror movie's cover/poster was actually interesting enough to make me sit down and watch it. And yeah, I was somewhat hesitant, or even skeptical, about watching it, given the fact that the movie had the word "Amityville" in its title. It isn't exactly like movies with that name in the title are known for their great entertainment value.

But still, the movie should be given a fair chance, so I sat down and watched it. And as I had anticipated, then writer and director Thomas J. Churchill just didn't manage to deliver a wholesome movie here. So the curse of the "Amityville" titled movies continues on.

Was "The Amityville Moon" watchable? Sure, but it wasn't a particularly grand or memorable foray into the horror genre. And for this being a werewolf movie, then it was a very weak attempt at a jab at the werewolf sub-genre of horror. At least if there had been more scenes with the actual werewolf, then perhaps "The Amityville Moon" would have been more enjoyable.

The pacing of "The Amityville Moon" was slow and tedious, without much of anything interesting actually happening. So it was a rather dull and monotonous movie experience. And I have to admit that I ended up giving up on finishing the movie without about 20 minutes left, give or take. Yup, the ordeal was that tedious.

The acting in the movie was adequate. You will not be in for any great or memorable acting performances here, nor will you be in for a grand cast ensemble. But in all fairness, then the actors and actresses did an okay job with the limited material they had to work with.

My rating of "The Amityville Moon" lands on a mere three out of ten stars.

At a halfway house in Amityville, NY something is amiss. (Although the setting might as well be Australia for all this movie has to do with The Amityville Horror.) When two detainees are reported missing a cop and an escapee of the facility team up to unravel the mystery. That's a decent enough premise and this movie could have been entertaining despite the obviously low budget, amateur performances and Party City werewolf costume. Unfortunately the central premise only takes up about a quarter of the runtime; the rest is extraneous filler that quickly grows tiresome. There are also several major plot holes that are addressed but never resolved - just acknowledging that things don't make sense doesn't actually correct the problem.
