Amityville Playhouse

And some of the characters are so irritating that you want them to die, so they do not say any more of the embarrassing script.

The only reason why this gets a 2 and not 1, is the goth chick is cute and not as cringeworthy when she spoke...

Amityville Playhouse has no association with the original Amityville films, lets say that right from the start. It is a very slow, dull film, with shaky camera and below par acting. I struggle to tell where the budget for this film was actually spent. Usually I would try and find something to redeem a film, but I am really struggling with this production. I do not think even decent acting could salvage this script. It had no real substance to the story line, I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing ever did. It is an absolute travesty that they used the name Amityville to try and lure people into watching this film.

Chances are if you're watching a non-80s or even 90s amityville film you know you're in for bottom of the barrel stuff.

Amityville Theater is no exception. Extremely light on horror elements, this plays more like a mystery thriller and a bad one at that.

The camerawork is decent which is about the only positive thing I can say about this film.

Only for the Amityville completists, everyone else watch your community theater, they probably do a better job.

Was highly disappointed at the lack of acting. I genuinely felt the person doing casting went to the nearest mall, stood in the center of the food court, closed his/her eyes and span in a circle with their finger pointed out. I could hardly get past the first 15 minutes of the film. Asides from the acting, the plot itself was nothing special. Nothing really happened throughout, and when things did happen, the scene just made me cringe at how poorly it was done. This is a disgrace to the Amityville franchise and should never have been given the green light. I advise all horror fans to disregard this film at all costs and just wait for the legit one to release later this year.

So here's yet another person who thinks they can try their luck at writing and directing a 'horror' movie simply because they are a fan of horror movies and fresh out of college. The writer and director (I used those words loosely ) is sure a fan of the original Amityville the he decided to investigate and see if you could make a film using the Amityville name whilst having nothing at all to do with err... Amityville.

So first off what he did was insult many fans of the original movies.

The writer and director even admitted that only 3 people EVER went to see this movie on its short cinema release. Those 3 people being the writer himself and 2 producers. Says a lot right there.

Don't even read on.. Don't give this trash any more attention and it should go away.
