ThiefHott Too much of everything

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

adonis98-743-186503 This movie is a 'found-footage' film about the Benson family who move in to the infamous house where the DeFeo family were murdered in the 1970s over 30 years earlier. Things start happening to anyone who visits this house, and whoever lives there. This is the footage retrieved from the camera. The Amityville Haunting tries to be alot like Paranormal Activity and even tho i'm no fan of those movies as a whole they were at least half decent and entertaining unlike this movie which was just cheap and all over the place and it's an overall mistake as a whole.

GL84 Moving into a new house, a family begins to experience a series of weird behaviors around them which they come to find out is the result of the previous occupant of the house coming back to seek revenge on the new family and forces them to find a way of stopping it.This here was a wholly bland and unappealing effort. Among the many problems here is the absolutely ridiculous reasoning why the family is still there in the house following these events. The fact that a vast majority of the film features the family at odds over what happens, from the death of the mover to the ways it shows them adjusting to the move and how the different methods for announcing the ghostly presence in the house that goes ignored for what they perceive to know better. That makes the film exceptionally hard to get through as the film is far more concerned with building an atmosphere of dread being in the house than anything to do with a rational thought, leaving tons of situations that play out in a rather infuriating manner of bringing the situation to their attention only to have it turn out to be shot down by their refusal to spot anything wrong with what's happening, such as the failure to recognize the tape left behind that clearly shows something is happening, the inability to spot the flies on the window which clearly should've required more attention than what's being offered here as these clearly signal something is going on inside. Another problem to overcome is the fact that the house itself is clearly not the usual setting for the rest of the films as the place is cramped, closed off and completely removed from how the house has looked in the past that it really seems like a different location entirely. This place doesn't resemble the famous house in the slightest and seems to be taken from any old house in the neighborhood so it comes across as even worse since this all makes the film look so shoddily made that there's very little chance of anything here carrying out in that kind of chilling fashion. With all these issues at hand, there's not much about the film to enjoy as it does have a couple enjoyable elements at play. These, though, are all confined to the final few minutes of the film as this one is entirely built on the action of the ghost getting into the action, from the chilling confrontation in the bedroom where it takes place completely over the security camera with no other figure on screen, the utterly chilling moments in the kitchen where the ghost finally gets to be seen in a rather terrifying sequence that's far better than the rest of the film combined and a pretty clichéd if worthwhile finale that's all the films' positives in a singularly enjoyable part. However, it's really all that the film has going for it. Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence and children-in-jeopardy

LadyLoudMouth This movie was awful. Not because it says "What you are about to see is real". It terribly fake and anyone who can read will know that. The end says "The time and location was unknown"...uh...they just posted right before "The following events took place between 3am and 4am" obviously in Amityville. Agreed that the in-yo-face camera of a bloody ghost made me jump a little it was a complete waste of time. I wouldn't bother watching it again and wish Hulu wouldn't count any rating of me watching it... Cheap scare. Watch the documentary instead; or the first or second movie.

afishcalledsid The film is ridiculous. Firstly, the interior of the home meant to pass for the historic, palatial and atmospheric DeFeo-Lutz haunted house on Long Island is clearly a modern townhouse or semi-detached. Most of the ...umm ...actors ...are completely wrong for the parts they play, mainly because the filmmakers just used the family members and friends they had available to fill the roles. The effects are beyond pedestrian and the storyline is not all that imaginative. This is not an "indie film", it's a home movie. This work is an attempt to grab a few bucks by exploiting the Amityville name before any potential viewers realize that it sucks and has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual events or location of the 1970's American haunting. I actually resent their perception of indie horror fans' as gullible and there to be exploited in this manner. This might be the worst movie I have ever seen.
