hyped garbage
Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful
Admirable film.
Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Not the best bit predictable but still some good bits
This opens with the infamous murders at the iconic address. It's 40 years later and a new family is moving in. Single mom Joan (Jennifer Jason Leigh) has three children; frustrated Belle (Bella Thorne), youngest Juliet (Mckenna Grace), and comatose James (Cameron Monaghan).Like James, this franchise is on life support. Anybody hoping for a resurgence may need to do a deal with the devil. There is nothing overtly wrong with this movie other than the fact that nothing original happens. There are jump scares but none of them are inventive or scary. There is only one moment that I found compelling. I love James talking through the computer and asking Belle to kill him. It's one of the few character connections in the movie. None of the new friends are memorable. The mother could have done more. This is a forgettable entry in a dead franchise.
So the Amityville series continues. What this is like overall a tenth film. The last one was a decade ago. I'm okay with their idea of bringing it up. But there's nothing new in it. Only it was a different cast and timeline. So basically, you probably have seen this story in other flicks.A family of a single mother with one child with a serious medical condition moves into the most popular haunted house, the Amityville. The other one, a teen girl discovers the rumours from her new schoolmates. But the mother won't heed to it, till unusual events begin to unfold. So how it all ends are the rest of the film.The cast was good, and that's it, the film was average. If you are a big fan of horror, then this would be even a worse film, because you might have seen hundreds of similar flicks. I think Amityville franchise is dead, because of bad storied films. Otherwise with good filmmakers, particularly the writer, it could come back to the old glory. So now, it's not that worth. I would suggest to check it out other horrors released in this year.5/10
Could have been way better, but it is still engaging and decent, the acting is good, great talent!
