The Amityville Playhouse (2015)

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

This film deserve an award for being the first film that doesnt belong to any category, it has nothing to do with "horror" or even "film" its just a long video made by clueless untalented amateurs just for your wasting-time pleasure, everything about this film is terrible litearlly!! the acting was so cold, poor and ridiculous, maybe you think the caption is sort of interesting but believe me its not even the poster is deceitful itself, the only scary thing in this film is that huge ugly zit popping and flooding i mean what the heck!!!! i threw my chewing gum away, believe me this film is so awful that you become another person after you watch it

The film has the word "Amityville" in it so we know it has to be scary and somehow related to the 10,000 other films with its name in it. And we know this is the REAL Amityville because there is a car with a magnetic sign that says "Amityville" plus other cardboard signs. Pay no attention to the distinctive Manitoba license plate with "Friendly Manitoba" blurred out.Fawn (Monèle LeStrat) inherits the threater from her recently deceased parents who died in a cabin fire by a Canadian lake. She wants to "check it out" with an overnight group of friends. The theater showed opera by day and adult films by night. The theater was shut down in 2010 while the last film on the marquee was "Valley of the Demon" a 2013/14 film.The sound was uneven and the soundtrack consisted mostly of a piano with two keys. I initially laughed at Fawn's delivery of bad dialogue until I watched the rest of the cast, who were actually worse. Director John R. Walker carved himself out a role in a subplot in a confusing teacher's spot which includes an odd scene of Brits discussing American History. Other odd scenes include the motel room rental and the knock out and release scene.The demonic voice enhancer is a dead low budget give away and is normally used in zero budget films. I wasn't sure why they whipped out a Ouija Board and have it play such a minor role other than Ouija boards are cheap. You don't have to use everything you learned the day you spent at film making school.This borders on "so bad it is good."Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity. Kyle makes numerous homophobic statements.Congrats Mr. Walker on getting this into Walmart

Why do I put myself through these bad sequels one after another is even a mystery to me. It must be the completest and fanboy inside of me that wishes for one last good sequel to enjoy since the remake instead of leaving the series behind.Fawn has inherited a production company from her parents who died mysteriously five years prior and her four friends are now trapped inside with the terrifying poltergeists. Her teacher now must find the links to the past and save them before time runs out.I wanted to enjoy it, but the production value was terrible, the dialogue is uninspired and the acting was the worst I've ever seen. Besides Lestrat (Fawn) the caste is for the most part unlikable from her moody boyfriend to the troubled brother Jevan and Kyle who annoy the audience with their constant bickering.Instead of using the sets, props and imagery to their advantage it remains an uneventful script boring you to sleep and makes this entry forgettable.At this point it nearly matches Friday the 13th for sequels and the well has been pumped dried. The show should not go on.

I'm sorry but this was one of the worst movies I've seen. The main actress constantly rolls her eyes it is SO annoying. The plot was no good it wasn't scary at all since the acting from all involved ruined every scene. I'm not even sure how long it was but it was so bad it felt very long. The actors were so clueless about everything Going on and the make up was weird. By far the acting was the worst thing. It was laughable. The end was stupid.I gotta stop renting these cheap independent horror films they always suck.
