The part that I find most horrific, though, is Lalo Schifrin's haunting score: From the opening titles alone with only a static image of that evil house, only the original Alien has been able to equally give me such a sense of dread just by the music alone. Forget about Jody the pig.
And speaking of the house, if you look closely through those "evil eye" windows, you will see some boards there where giant eyes are painted on, which works on a subliminal level, and was never noticeable (to me, at least) until high definition.
One of my favorite horror movies of all time.
Now...GET OUT!!!!
The Amityville Horror works for me mostly because of how weird James Brolin and Margot Kidder are. Margot's top lip sometimes looks like she just had a shot of novacaine. Her weird outfits, her sometimes inappropriate times for screaming and the weird shape her forehead skin makes when she screams definitely adds to the weirdness of the movie. James Brolin's red eyes, low speaking voice and his obession with the axe and the firewood are all very creepy as well. Rod Steiger (the priest) gives another over-the-top performance which is what I love about him. The Nun is really, really weird too. Hell, the soundtrack is weird too (by Lalo Schifrin - is this the soundtrack Wiilliam Friedkin threw out the window for "The Exorcist?"). The babysitter, the realtor, the brother, the hippie preist, the kids, even the dog, they just all seem strange.
I love weird "true" stories. I don't believe them but I still love them. This story is a load of horse s*** but The Amityville Horror is a great, fun, weird, "true" movie. The other movies and the "event" I mentioned are good for really weird entertainment as well. Life is strange. Enjoy!
The story starts out with the murder of a family while they sleep. Then we skip to a year later and we see a young couple, played by James Brolin and Margot Kidder, taking a tour with a real estate agent of the same house. The real estate agent seems impatient to unload the house, and the house is apparently selling for a great deal less than it's worth, due to the murders that occurred a year prior. Kathy (Margot Kidder) states that it's a great house, but she states her reluctance to buy a house where such gruesome murders occurred. George (James Brolin) tells her "Houses have no memories" and they decide to take the house. We also find out that they are newlyweds, and Kathy has three children, 2 boys and a girl, from a previous marriage.
So the Lutz family moves in, and strange things start happening. The Catholic priest, played by Rod Steiger, comes over to bless the house, and he encounters an evil presence and some flies. He starts to try and perform the blessing, but is taken ill and basically chased out of the house by voices and more flies. The Lutz family, who happen to be outside at the time, don't get to experience the show. The priest runs away, but tries to contact the Lutz family numerous times on the phone, but keeps getting cut off. The mood of the movie suggests evil forces at work, but I wouldn't discount poor phone service.
Anyway, more crazy stuff starts happening, cold drafts, noises, doors getting ripped off hinges, the family dog getting a little nutty, the daughter talking to a new pretend friend, chairs rocking on their own, things getting lost, baby sitter getting locked in a closet and freaking out, etc. George starts to lose it, getting all moody like, and apparently begins to take on the appearance of the killer of the previous family that lived in the house, who happened to be the older son of said family.
Now I just want to say that, while this movie is two hours long, there's no real depth provided for the main characters, so you don't really become involved with them, and basically don't care what happens to them. At least that's how it was for me. The house, however, was presented in such a way that it became a character in the movie, a creepy, eerie character that I wanted to know more about.
Other stuff happens, and we eventually find out through George's business partner's girlfriend, who apparently possesses some limited psychic ability, that the house was built on a spot where something terrible happened, and now the spirits of the victims of that terrible event are in the house. After a month, the Lutz family finally has had enough, and leaves the house without taking anything but the clothes on their back. Having forgotten the dog, George does go back to retrieve it, but based on what happened when he did so, I would have just gotten a new dog.
Anyway, not a bad movie, but a little longer than necessary, and not a whole lot of depth to the characters, except maybe the house. Had they cut the running time down, made us more involved with the characters, and added a few more levels to the creep factor, this could have been a really great, scary movie, instead of a somewhat scary more often boring movie. There are a few truly creepy scenes, but they are far and few between. There is a trailer, but that's about it for extras. I would have liked to seen a little more with regards to the history of the house, or production notes, but that would have required someone to do a little extra work, and I guess this movie wasn't worth it. Oh well, there is always the book....
