The movie was fine. i saw this with a few friends. it is not as if the movie was anything i hadnt seen it was just scary. we were screaming a lot. do not allow a kid who gets scared easily or stays scared for a long time to see this movie. it will make you scream. on the other hand it is a perfect sleepover movie for your teenage girls who you think can handle it.

This movie is INTENSELY scary and violent. There is a lot of blood. In almost every scene there is something gory. Lots of ghosts, dismembered bodies, girls hanging from the ceiling, walls dripping blood, ect. The acting was disappointing at best, but trust me, that will be the last thing on your mind while watching this. Overall, it was terrible. I do not recommend to ANYONE!!!!

This is a terrible movie this is worse than HALLOWEEN. too jumpy and the sex is intense!

a good adaption of one of roald dahl's stories that has a distinctly dark tone

Great movie. Book was even better :)

This remake is absolutely HORRIBLE!!! It has maybe one or two scares and thats it, the rest made me sick to watch. Not because of gore, there is a strong lacking on that, but it just plain sucks, it is nothing like the original. I admire Ryan Reynolds & he is a great actor, but why is he wasting his time in this sorry excuse for a movie and a remake for one of the greatest horror movies of all time. Save yourself the rental fees on this one & get yourself the discounted or free rental of the original Amityville Horror. You wont be disappointed with the original, unlike this sorry remake.
