This
frightening
remake
of
the
1979
horror
classic
from
producer
Michael
Bay
(THE
TEXAS
CHAINSAW
MASSACRE)
delves
deeper
into
the
supposedly
true
story
of
supernatural
events
that
occurred
in a
Long
Island,
New
York
home
in
the
'70s.
When
George
and
Kathy
Lutz
(Ryan
Reynolds
and
Melissa
George)
come
across
a
beautiful
river-front
colonial
home
being
sold
for
a
steal,
they
suspect
a
catch.
Once
informed
that
the
home
was
the
site
of a
grisly
mass
murder,
they
decide
to
buy
the
house
anyway
and
eagerly
move
in,
bringing
with
them
Kathy's
three
children
from
a
previous
marriage.
While
no
one
can
deny
that
the
house
is
rife
with
spooky
sounds,
the
family
members
try
to
put
their
fears
at
bay.
But
over
time,
strange
occurrences
start
happening,
becoming
more
and
more
frequent,
and
these
events
start
to
have
a
transformative
effect
on
several
family
members.
Kathy's
daughter
starts
to
act
bizarrely,
ending
up
in a
variety
of
life-threatening
situations,
led
by
her
new,
not-so-imaginary
friend
Jody
(one
of
the
children
slaughtered
in
the
house
years
before
by
her
older
brother).
Likewise,
something
strange
seems
to
be
happening
to
George.
His
usually
sweet
demeanor
is
replaced
with
a
hostile
one,
and
he
starts
cruelly
taking
out
his
aggression
on
Kathy's
children.
Kathy's
original
assumption
that
a
house
cannot
be
evil
is
challenged
as
she
watches
her
husband
transform
into
the
sort
of
man
that
just
might
be
capable
of
murdering
his
family.
Faster-paced
than
the
original,
THE
AMITYVILLE
HORROR
keeps
viewers
on
the
edge
of
their
seats
with
quick
editing,
suspenseful
music,
and
moderately
graphic
violence.
The
two
leads
give
quality
performances,
and
seem
to
inhabit
the
decade
in
which
the
story
is
set
despite
the
film's
slick,
contemporary
production.
