The Amityville Terror

Oh Dear and in the very beginning our Faith is gutted and strung up!!! Sorry Faith!!!

But, cut to the new couple which is of course moving into this House....and their daughter, and the alchoholic sister!!!

+1 Star for a couple of scenes of T&A. That was good.

-1 Star for the smoking in the bathroom and apparently the teacher couldn't smell it when she walked in, derrrrrr.......

The movie just gets worse and worse. It's really hard to put all the bad into anything shorter than a book. I did make it to the end, so this one can end with a 2/10.

First, despite the title this film has nothing to do with anything remotely Amityville. The effects were so poor. Come on folks, CG software is cheap and there are plenty of out of work effects people that could have done better with freeware. Of course there is always the story line. Except in this movie. Did these people make this up on the fly? So with no effects, no story line and no script how could you expect anything more? THere is always a place for mindless sex and violence on the screen, but here you won't find mindless, just useless. I must admit I am something of an Amityville Horror snob. I owned my first home in Nassau SHores only 1 mile from the actual Amityville Horror house. Yup, there really is a house that the first movie was based on. It was on a side street and the traffic got so bad the town of Amityville had to post no parking signs for a couple of blocks and post cops to keep the traffic moving. Well, the house in this movie was probably owed by the producer and he got a write off to use it for the film. I think that's the best thing that could have ever come form this piece of trash. To sum it all up.... don't waste your time on this treasure.

I read some of the reviews going into the movie. But I still decided to watch. Everyone has different tastes after all.......

Except for this little gem. I don't think anyone could sit thru this movie (if they managed to make it to the end) and say WOW that was great. Heck they wouldn't even say it wasn't that bad.

There are absolutely NO redeeming qualities in this movie. The acting. The special effects. The plot. The script. All were so bad that all you wish is to go back in time to the video store and when you are about to pick this movie the wall of DVDs crash down knocking you out for a few hours. Seriously you would enjoy that more.

If you are, like me, thinking surely these people jest. Go ahead. Watch it. Then come back here and write how you wish you would have listened.

I am a big fan of the previous Amityville movies, and I suppose this lame (straight to) DVD (?) production was targeting fans like me. This movie has some of the worst sfx I have ever seen. It is the kind of sfx quality a 16 year old produces on a PC for a you tube videos. Scenario ? Basic stuff, written by someone who obviously has no idea how teens talk nowadays, and had no intention of actually trying to write something even remotely interesting. I have seen many movies trying to cash in on popular franchises over the years, and this is one such movie. Do not even try watching it on DVD ...huge waste of time and money!

In all of the worst new horror movies a funny thing is happening, zero likable characters. When my friends and family and I everyone wants a horror movie we all have our favorite style one wants monster another slasher, someone else wants vampire and so on so it my take a while to pick and when we see a movie is shaping up to be crap we salvage movie night whit a sort of bad movie version of clue. The great thing about modern crap horror you hate almost all characters so It makes it very to root for how, when, and by who the characters are done away with. As you see I said nothing about this god awful piece of crap, I set out to savage this garbage movie but all that work had been done by others.
