Wait… here’s a Trailer for Yet Another ‘Amityville’ Movie!

I’ve long lost count of all the Amityville films on the market. Of the countless pics to be made, the only two that succeed in any way are the original Amityville Horror, and believe it or not, the remake. The remainder of the bunch are basically interchangeable and forget affairs. They’re all the same, and no one really keeps up with them.

Maybe that’s what has made Franck Khalfoun’s Amityville: The Awakening hold some allure. It’s only the third time the franchise has had some big talent behind it. At least big enough to turn heads.

Heads that certainly aren’t turning for The Amityville Terror.

The truth is this flick is a bit of a question mark. Michael Angelo is a first-time director. Amanda Barton – at the time – was a first time screenwriter. The film stars Nicole Tompkins, Kaiwi Lyman, Kim Nielsen, Amanda Barton, and Tonya Kay. None of whom boast shiny résumés, but all of whom do deserve a chance to shine.

Here’s a look at the trailer.

The Amityville Terror comes out on digital platforms August 2nd via Uncork’d Entertainment.

Synopsis: “When a new family moves to an old house in Amityville, they are tormented and tortured by an evil spirit living in their house, and trapped by the malicious townspeople who want to keep them there.”
