I've actually seen all six (I think it's six) of the Amityville movies that preceded this one, and part 2 was the only one I actually liked.

Anyway, this one gives a little cause for hope, because not only does it pick up from that only good Amityville movie, but it has Terry O'Quinn in a small role. How cool is that, eh?

A photographer (Ross Partridge) living in an urban studio apartment is given an ornate, ghoulishly-carved mirror by a derelict whose picture he takes. Soon, all sorts of Omen-like "accidental" deaths happen, as this guy finds out just who that derelict was, and what the mirror wants. Although it takes him most of the movie to figure out that the mirror actually wants something. Meanwhile, O'Quinn plays a cop investigating these deaths.

Most everybody just does what they need to do - often including removing their tops, which is a plus. O'Quinn is the only acting standout; he's slumming, but virtually by the definition of slumming, he's bringing some class to the affair.

There are a number of rewarding moments - many of them courtesy of a gallery of nasty, demon-depicting tapestries, through which characters aimlessly wander like a nightmare version of the more routine "chase through the hanging laundry" scene we see in every other movie. I also like the ludicrously obvious plot device of how one artist constructs a sculpture involving a TV, a clock, and a loaded gun that will fire at the viewer of the TV "sometime before the millennium", but nobody knows when.

Still, what it all adds up to is a combination between an Omen movie and an Amityville movie - which probably shouldn't have you bouncing up and down with anticipation. The most I'll remember about it a week from now is O'Quinn, and a hilarious ending where the crowd of people who bear witness to it conclude that it's performance art and applaud accordingly. (reminiscent of a scene in The Runestone)

Followed up by The Amityville Dollhouse, which is as non-promising a title as there ever was.

Things That Go Bump In The Night
Review of Amityville - A New Generation (DVD) by wampyrii

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...that...but this... The Amityville Horror is based upon a book written by Jay Anson by the same name. Apparently(so they say) it was based upon a true story, although after watching the movie you'll wonder just what they mean by 'based' - perhaps the fact that Amityville and a house was involved is about as close as it gets. The story is based around the unfortunate Lutz family who have just moved into their new house in Amityville. The perfect nuclear ...
...is the abysmal acting. The Amityville Horror turns into a comedy the moment Rod Steiger turns up as the hammy priest, completely wrecking any sense supense and tension which had built up. He is amazingly bad, almost on the same level as Leslie Nielson in Repossessed in his over-acting portrayal of a priest in a crisis of faith. James Brolin is pretty good however, although its a role which he is more than used to playing so he has had plenty of practice ... Read review

One Scary Soundtrack
Review of Amityville - A New Generation (DVD) by SmartRich

Advantages: Very spooky
Disadvantages: getting a bit dated now

There are a number of things that stick in my mind when thinking about this seventies horror film. It’s not gory, there are very few special effects, the house is pretty scary to look at, and that choir-based soundtrack is damn spooky. The story centres on a family that moves into a bargain priced house, which turns out to have been the scene of a rather grizzly murder. A whole chain of events follow that add light to the original murders. ...
...and the new owners are likely to go the same way as the last. While the plot is fairly straightforward (and apparently based on a true story) the actual execution of the movie is intricately relayed. There are lots if jumps and tense moments that build the momentum up the superb climax of the film. I will always remember the scene where the husband returns to the house in the storm and glance up at the upstairs window to see some form of ghost ... Read review
