What barely saves this film from the Annihilation I'd like to give it, j ust for trying to get views using the Amityville name. Is that the female leads are all reasonable actresses, easy on the eye. The rest is faux esoteric nonsense, lots of rather garbled talk on occult topics with clearly little research done, then the film descends into trope ridden dross. Best avoided.
A well made, acted and produced film. With plenty of genuine scares and eeriness. Hard to find too many faults with this little gem I found by chance on Shudder. Kudos to the makers, writers and cast. I'll be looking for more by this crew for certain. The pacing of the film is near perfect, not rushed, the film just rolls along at a pleasant, gentle pace not overstuffed with meaningless filler trying to shock. Best film I've seen in good while. A world away from the meaningless splatter of the Terrifier type of nonsense they pass off as 'horror' these days. This film has more slow burning menace than a thousand Terrifier type of films.
