The Amityville Horror is a book by American author Jay Anson, published in September 1977. It is also the basis of a series of films released between 19. The book is claimed to be based on the paranormal experiences. FBI Agents Mulder and Scully investigate the paranormal every Sunday night on Chiller. Amityville Horror IV (TV Movie 1. Written and directed by Sandor Stern, scriptwriter of the original Amityville Horror (1. Amityville: The Evil Escapes is an excellent, gripping extension of the Amityville mythos. This is all the more remarkable when we remember that it's the fourth entry in the series and it's a low budget made- for- television film- -two factors that in the conventional wisdom do not often add up to greatness. We begin with a cadre of priests who are attempting to exorcise the original Amityville home in Long Island for good after the events of the previous three films. Father Kibbler (Fredric Lehne) has a problem when an evil force runs through an electrical cord into a large, bizarre lamp, and it puts him into the hospital, unconscious. Assuming they were successful, the other priests authorize an estate sale cum garage sale. Alice Leacock's (Jane Wyatt) sister sees the lamp and decides it's perfect for a birthday present for Alice- -she thinks it's hideously ugly (I thought it was attractive, but I obviously have unusual tastes) and they've been sending each other gag gifts, so the . At the same time, Nancy Evans (Patty Duke), a recent widow, and her three kids are moving into Alice's home. More importantly, Stern creates a focused script, with Stephen King- like . He shoots the film with admirable style and atmosphere, on well- constructed (or located) sets, and he gets great performances out of his seasoned cast. The extension of the Amityville mythos was important for the series as it enabled the first film that could take place outside of the original house. Smartly, Sandor still gives us a home that has a similar tonality, but it's also different enough to enable fresh material. Aside from making the horror more related to common, everyday events and items, the idea of . The usual thinking about ghosts, at least currently, is that they make themselves known by manifesting as, or manipulating, energy. That's why there are . If any of that stuff were true (I'm a skeptic, but I find this stuff fascinating anyway), then it would make sense that ghosts could manifest through the electrical system of a house, in objects designed to be manipulated by changes in electromagnetism, and so on. Of course, whether the plot is plausible in the actual world is beside the point of whether this is a good film. Horror is in the realm of .

According to our research of New York and other state lists there was 1 registered sex offender living in Amityville, New York as of October 18, 2016. The ratio of number of residents in Amityville to the number of sex. The demonic force lurking in Amityville for over 300 years escapes to a remote California mansion. It encounters a struggling family living together by uncertain means. The beast manipulates a little girl by. The important aspect is that Sandor created a great device from making very common things in a house frightening, under very common conditions, and subjecting a number of common people to the situations. He exploits this to its full potential in Amityville: The Evil Escapes. And in doing so, he often features scenes that are surprisingly visceral for a made for television film. There is also more depth than one might expect from a fourth Amityville film meant to air on television. There is a subtext of a dysfunctional family (partially caused by tragedy, but appearing to have deeper roots) running throughout the film. For example, on a surface level, a . This reading makes this particular scene, at least, just as funny as tragic, but most of the horrors in the film are symbolic of family relationship problems, and most of them are not very funny. For my money, both this film and Amityville II: The Possession (1. Unfortunately, this entry is not very easy to find on DVD, and the next three entries in the series have never been available on DVD in the U. S. Hopefully, this situation will be rectified soon (I was hoping that all of the Amityville films would see DVD release/re- release with the arrival of the remake), but until then, I'll have to seek out region free DVDs or bootlegs of Amityville 5, 6 and 7.
