A children’s doll house, which is a miniature of the infamous haunted Long Island house, is given to a young girl where the demonic evil soon comes out to cause more terror.
Well this time we managed to get a break of 3 years before the next instalment in the series, it certainly needed it.
The theme of creepy furniture is continued in this release but this time it’s different, this time it’s a miniature Amityville, hence the films name. It sounds stupid but this time the creep factor is back, it shouldn’t be allowed to be this good at number eight in the series.
Director Steve White does a fantastic job with the subject matter and delivers a highly entertaining TV movie, it’s a shame this would be the only film he would direct in his career as he showed true talent. He earned the spot by working as a Producer on earlier releases and he forged a great career in producing, I just wish he had done more in the Directing work.
The film sticks with the supernatural theme but finally starts to take it that few steps further which it has desperately needed, The acting is also a-lot better than what we’ve been subjected to lately. The film is an improvement all round, especially this far in the series.
Many thought this would be the last in the series and if it was true then it would have gone out on a high note and the cow had certainly been milked dry beyond belief at this point.
“Amityville: Dollhouse” is a fun and entertaining flick that wouldn’t go amiss on a Sunday afternoon.
