Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Realrockerhalloween Once again the curse strikes back at new owners who purchase the house at a discount. So once again I have to ask how the house is still standing and how is it possible after the first four events people are still clueless about ghosts?To be honest it felt even more like a television movie them part four with bland actors who will be features on where are they now stories, cheap effects and synthetic music.Speaking about the effects its rehashed with Windows slamming, house trumpeting and words inscribing themselves on mirrors. You could tell the budget was fight.No suspense as scenes end To soon when it gets interesting like Frank becoming possessed only to kill the maid and stopped by his friends before he gets to Deborah. Betraying the mysterious figure who is doing the killings for a cheap easy thrill.The house looks remolded or a new location all together as it doesn't have the same structure or features we've come accustomed to in the first few film.At this point they aren't even trying to keep the true story angle for cheap knockoffs that shouldn't be made. 5/10
trashgang I have said it a Thousand times and I will say it again. Another perfect example why horror was dead at the end of the eighties, early nineties. This has nothing to offer and has in fact nothing to do with the original one. It's just cashing in the money due the name Amityville.Only the last 12 minutes do offer horror but the other 75 minutes are a pure waist of time. There are things that should be scary but it's so cheesy that it isn't scary but laughable. It's so sad that a lot of franchises had to end this way...Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5
utgard14 Marvin and Debbie (David Stein, Dawna Wightman) buy the Amityville house. They are unaware of its past, having lived on the moon for the last decade. They bring some friends over to help renovate. Of course, bad stuff starts to go down. The fifth Amityville is a dreadful Canadian-produced direct-to-video movie that is quite possibly the worst in the series. It has little to do with the previous films. The entire thing looks cheap like it was filmed for fifty Canadian pesos. Dark, dreary mess with pathetic special effects, no scares, and a transparent story. Avoid unless you are desperate to complete the series.
Sean Smith As a director, I've always wanted to put a new "spin" to the Batman series. This doesn't mean that I think the other Batman films lack quality, I just believe I have something to contribute to the series. In my mind, this is what Tom Berry and Michael Krueger were thinking. They had an "idea" for the series. Nay, not to make the series better or worse, it was just an "idea" for the series. This adaptation to the story completely lacks promise, and mind you this is an adaptation, not a continuance of the series. The characters are not the same, and the bloody house doesn't even resemble the iconic frame of our creepy anti-protagonist of a building. So in the end you will be sitting through what seems like an endless time capsule of bad 90's hair, and boring "suspense" scenes. Because in all, you're not watching Amityville. You're watching some people's "idea of Amityville." And boy is that idea not scary at all. Pass this movie unless you are a die-hard Amityville-Nut. Well, because in order to enjoy this, you might just have to be one.
