Reaction: This Amityville reboot has become the most successful film about the topic and the most successful film from writer Jack Brown.



"For a story that keeps getting films regardless of the majority wants it, writer Jack Brown creates an eerie and disturbing film that chills you to the bone for its piercing sharp atmosphere and tone. Nick Robinson is something to watch as he plays to an array of emotions which is surprising for a horror movie like this." - Estelle Alberts,  Chicago Reader




"The latest entry into the long-established Amityville franchise is a bit life lifeless...by design, carried on the back of a dead-eyed performance from Nick Robinson. It is certainly one of the darker releases from the studio in quite some time and that's going to isolate some audiences but it's a level-up from We Know Where You Live for writer Jack Brown, signaling him as a name to watch when it comes to LRF horror." - Reggie Coscarelli, San Fernando Valley Sun



"This Amityville reboot is easily the best film take yet on the subject matter. Nick Robinson absolutely nails the lead character and his rapid descent into madness and murder upon arriving at 112 Ocean Avenue. The quality on display here honestly took me completely by surprise. Amityville has to be the most genuinely scary, frightening, disturbing and outright unsettling horror film in LRF's storied history." - Jeff Stockton, The Roundup
