film set in the Amityville house would be awesome, but only if done well. This had a chance to thrust the &#8216;Amityville&#8217; story into the now and scare a new generation. That chance was severely wasted as it just went along with the tried and tested method we&#8217;ve seen a million times before.<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">The film does little to keep your attention and when you do get the inevitable jump scenes you only open your mouth to yawn not scream. I just couldn&#8217;t believe that this was actually released under the &#8216;Amityville&#8217; name, but then again this is release number ten so what was I expecting?!<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/the-amityville-haunting-1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"20540\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/somewhatnerdy.com\/home\/razs-midnight-macabre-horror-review-the-amityville-haunting\/the-amityville-haunting-1\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/the-amityville-haunting-1.jpg?fit=448%2C252&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"448,252\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"the-amityville-haunting (1)\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/the-amityville-haunting-1.jpg?fit=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/the-amityville-haunting-1.jpg?fit=448%2C252&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-20540\" alt=\"the-amityville-haunting (1)\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/somewhatnerdy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/the-amityville-haunting-1.jpg?resize=500%2C300\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">&#8220;The Amityville Haunting&#8221;
