Very terrifying old movie that I try and watch whenever it comes on cable. It rarely gets the credit it deserves and I believe most of what contributes to that is the 8 or so sequels that followed. Anywho, who likes and or hates this movie? I loved the heck out of it, it still creeps me out to this day and I'm almost 30yrs old!

"The Amityville Horror" just doesn't do it for me anymore. But the scene at the end when the house starts bellowing "GET OUUUTTTT!" never gets old.

The remake did not do this film justice. The original 'Amityville Horror' is not only a fantastic horror movie, but it mops the floor with the lame attempt remake.

I dunno I didn't think the remake was too bad actually. The original "Amityville Horror" was a good movie but the remake was equally well done imo.

Well bro's the remake creeped me out more than "The Amityville Horror" old school version did. The remake had some really twisted imagery that the original was lacking. That helped create a more sinister tone for the movie.

'The Amityville Horror' became less scary to me over the years when I found out it was all a fabricated lie. Watching this movie and thinking to myself something like this actually happened, a family actually had to endure such horror at the hands of supernatural forces really got to me. But once I found out it was just a silly made up Urban Legend the movie list the effect it had on me and it became just another haunted house romp.

I don't think the amityville haunting was officially confirmed as a falsehood. I believe some parts of the story were proven to have inconsistencies but the core of the legend is still true I think.

Most of it was discredited actually, well put it like this...the good parts that spawned the movie, were all proven to be BS. So really what's left of the legend after that?

I never really got into the Amityville series. The movies weren't creepy enough for me I guess.

"The Amityville Horror" is still a top notch supernatural horror film. Whether the whole myth behind it is true or not.
