Official Site: http://www.amityvillehorrormovie.com/

Last week i watched the original version (1979) on Scream TV then tonight i watched the new version and was really disapointed. I cant beleive how far Hollywood can go to change a story to make money. The movie is not even the same...they tried to follow the path of the ring/darkness in this one and the unny thing is that they wrote "base on a true story"..they should rewrite this for "a fiction of a true story"

I cant forget the face of the guy when he smash the brick wall and look behind it and see "hell" then his face...pretty spooky...in the new crap version, they put a story about a madman who killed indians and behind the wall was torture chambers.

Personally i think this movie is crap and kill the insane story of the real movie.

As a person interested in the field of parapsychology, I can tell you as a whole its basically not true. But there is one thing true. The Defeo family murders. This case is nothing but a dam hoax which makes real ghost cases look bad.

But on to the new version of the movie. Yes it is bull shit. George never became possessed by the house. His daughter never climbed up on top of the house. There was no John Katchem (in fact, towards the end that whole secret room bit seemed to be a hellraiser ripoff). The whole scene with the priest was wrong. He didnt bless the downstairs, he went to bless the upstairs. How come only George and his daughter were the only ones to see ghosts? George never chopped up his dog. The house looks nothing like the real ammityville house. I'm surprised they even got the fact that they left 28 days after they moved in right.

But I'm sure some people will reply and say its only a movie, and screw the events. Ok, fair enough. The movie on its own sucked. Its not a type of movie in which it can hold its own. The possession bit dragged on wayy too long. It was just something you'd expect from seeing a watered down poltergeist or house movie. You all remember the movie series called The House? That ended up getting stupid. What hollywood should of did was take off the "based on a true story" bit. This is just pure crap and makes real paranormal cases look fake. Anyone who attempts to try to prove me wrong will be made to look like a moron because I have plenty of evidence to back me up. Just look at the Warrens website.

Yea, theres just too much evidence out there. Heres a few things more to throw in.

It was a hoax for money because the Lutz's couldnt afford the mortage of the house. The movie is inaccurate because they said they got the house at a steal. The ammityville house costed alot and was no wheres near a good price. Kaplan himself studied the house and found nothing in it. No lightorbs, nothing with the meters, no cold spots. And the people living there now arent complaining of any paranormal activity.

If you guys are intestered in a really good haunted location, I suggest you guys look into the Paris Catacombs. That place has alot of history and theres even a tour you can go through.

I thought it was ok. It was a decent horror movie. What you expect? Then again I was just glad with wasn't another PG-13 wuss fest. Getting sick of these PG-13 "horror" movies. But I'm also getting sick of remakes and this was one of them. Although I never saw the original (fuckin Blockbuster and their pos dvds).

I expected them not to dig up a fuckin' 30 year old hoax back up to stir up controversy. The people who dont know what Ammityville is are now asking stupid questions and are believing what they see in the new film is real. I dont even wanna talk about this fuckin crap case no more. Later. BTW, I'm not mad at you. I'm just sick of hearing about this everywhere on the internet Razz I'm so used to reading the is it real questions on the internet. Than theres the actual stupid people who go down to Ammityville and trespass to see the house.

I knew what Amityville was before seeing the remake so I figured the remake wasn't gonna be as "true." Remakes always add new shit to try to make it cool to the younger crowd. Plus I didn't really believe it to begin with.

Its a disgrace. It totally trashes both the Defeos and Lutzs. Since when was George Lutz going to kill his family? I only have one reply to that. Well if George Lutz really did make the whole thing up to gain money, than he has no room to talk about character assassination. What comes around goes around.

Oh, and the Defeo's daughter never hid in the closet. And since when would Ronald Defeo cry before he killed his sister? Also that gun shot is not accurate. That would of seriouslly blew off his sisters face, it wouldnt be just a hole in her head. Completely bullshit.

Yea. The whole thing seemed like it was one episode out of Freddys Nightmares. Oh I know, lets make up a story about this guy who killed indians hundreds of years ago that was a rogue priest, than they go and explain that thats the reason why the house is haunted. I swear theres like something wrong in each scene. I'd like to know exactly why they changed Jodie from a pig to a girl? Also, there was no catacombs in the house. There was just a secret red room that George found.

Heres my final thought on this case:

Theres only a few things we know for sure. The Defeos were murdered and the Lutz's ran away 28 days after they moved in. Theres been soo many storys on this that say its fact and that its fiction in so many ways you cant even tell what really did happen. Because of all the storys being changed it has rendered this case complete bullshit. I find it funny how the priest in all this got kicked out of his own church because he played a part in this hoax. I cant believe people still buy into this. If anything, if a place was really haunted it would be closed off from the media. The caretaker would than contact a team of professional parapsychologists. I know all about this because I have a friend that lives in Erie, PA that is an actual parapsychologist. Dont believe any of this bull shit.

The sad part is that people still believe in the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It was really a story based off of the killer Ed Gein. There was no chainsaw. Tobe Hooper got that idea when he was in a hardware store.

LOL. Yeah I was gonna mention TCM too and how that's fake also. My sister when the remake came out (which sucked) was telling me about how the guy is still alive and not caught and all this bullshit. I just rolled my eyes cause I knew it was based off the killer Ed Gein.

Yea, its just amazing how many gullible people there are online and in real life. You could go on IMDB right now and find hundreds of posts of people saying TCM is real.
