The Amityville Horror

Yes, classic but oh my... Bad acting galore and just not scary. After someone said something I usually felt like asking, what? That made no sense. So I watched it because it is a classic but glad it is over.

I have to keep going back to these old horror classics as the new horror movies are just not giving off the same horror feels. Take for example Evil Dead Rise and the much talked about cheese grater scene. It really is so much of a nothing scene. It's over in a flash and is not even remotely terrifying. Now in this movie when that window comes down on that kids hand and you feel the pain from his screams and it is not just a quick blink and you'll miss it scene, Like the above mentioned , You really get a sense of horror which is what these movies are meant to be all about. I get what a lot of others say that not a lot happens for a big amount of run time but it actually does as it builds up tension and the sense of impending doom. Great movie imo and Amityville 2 the possession is definitely worth checking out also :thumbsup:
