Trivia

Not counting Amityville: The Awakening (2017), which is a completely original story, this is the only theatrically released Amityville film not to be based on a book but instead on the real life accounts of investigator Stephen Kaplan. See more »

Goofs

A character's right arm catches fire as they sit in the driver's seat of their car. In angles from the side showing the burning arm, it's either a stuntperson's or a prop stuck between the two front seats: its movements don't quite match the actor's, and in 3D prints it's clearly a little too far away from their body.

Enter the gateway to hell
10 February 2014 | by veryape-887-913905 – See all my reviews

A new dimension in ultimate evil has been added to the story to what has probably become the world's most notorious haunted house in America.

A magazine writer's investigation into a séance turns to horror when an abandoned well beneath the basement floor turns out to be the gateway to hell.

This film starred: Tony Roberts, Tess Harper & Meg Ryan

In my opinion this wasn't one of best entries in the Amityville film series, not the worst but no where near the best. It had a bad plot about the gateway to hell being a well in the basement. 93 minutes wasted in my opinion, it had a couple of entertaining scenes but nothing special.

**/***** Poor.
