This film by Michael Bay stars Ryan Reynolds and Melissa George. Extras included deleted scenes, features, commentaries, multi-angle on-set peeks, and photo gallery. This frightening remake of the 1979 horror classic from producer Michael Bay (THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE) delves deeper into the supposedly true story of supernatural events that occurred in a Long Island, New York home in the '70s. When George and Kathy Lutz (Ryan Reynolds and Melissa George) come across a beautiful river-front colonial home being sold for a steal, they suspect a catch. Once informed that the home was the site of a grisly mass murder, they decide to buy the house anyway and eagerly move in, bringing with them Kathy's three children from a previous marriage. While no one can deny that the house is rife with spooky sounds, the family members try to put their fears at bay. But over time, strange occurrences start happening, becoming more and more frequent, and these events start to have a transformative effect on several family members. Kathy's daughter starts to act bizarrely, ending up in a variety of life-threatening situations, led by her new, not-so-imaginary friend Jody (one of the children slaughtered in the house years before by her older brother). Likewise, something strange seems to be happening to George. His usually sweet demeanor is replaced with a hostile one, and he starts cruelly taking out his aggression on Kathy's children. Kathy's original assumption that a house cannot be evil is challenged as she watches her husband transform into the sort of man that just might be capable of murdering his family. Faster-paced than the original, THE AMITYVILLE HORROR keeps viewers on the edge of their seats with quick editing, suspenseful music, and moderately graphic violence. The two leads give quality performances, and seem to inhabit the decade in which the story is set despite the film's slick, contemporary production. Theatrical Release: April 15, 2005
Amityville Horror Reviews: "[T]he new AMITYVILLE stars an effective Ryan Reynolds..."-- Manohla Dargis, New York Times "[D]ecidedly superior to the original....The film is a terrific scare show, fast and furious, made with a lot of style and energy, packing plenty of jolts yet never lingering morbidly over horrific images.

terrible movie
first thing i should point out is the fact that the actors they used in this film do not look like a real family the mother looks way too young to have 3 children and the step father is also far too young for this sort of role and has more muscles than the incredible hulk.....how does your average family man struggling to make money to buy a new house find the time to look like a body builder...so stupid.....the ghost scenes are far too revealing and it just isn't scary because its thrown at the audience too easily.......what you don't see is always scarier than what you do see....or at least be subtle about it!! ...this feels like another cheap way to exploit naive teenagers and make some easy money because hollywood has no original ideas left..........take a stand against bad, greedy film makers...dont buy this dvd!!!

well, sorry but this is one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my whole life, it's supposed to be a "scary movie" but it made me laugh...the acting is so lame, the ordinary effects you see everyday in hollywood movies. Well, what could I expect from a movie like this. A total waste of time and money. Shame on its producers.

I couldn't wait for this movie to come out. This movie is very scary. It's one of the scariest movies I have seen in a while along with the movie "Saw". This movie is so dark and gritty that you have to watch with the lights on and with someone else. I thought everyone gave good performances in this movie. Especially Ryan Reynolds. He's one of my favorite actors of all time. I thought he played his role very well and was very believable. Trust me this movie will make you jump. A must buy to add to your collection.
