The Amityville Playhouse Audience Reviews

Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
ClassyWas Excellent, smart action film.
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Sera0994 Alright. I realize that this movie is not the best out there. However, it is also not as awful as some of the other reviewers are making it out to be For something that was created presumably out of love, on likely no budget with presumably local volunteer actors, why not cut them some slack? I mean honestly. Watching this with some friends in the spirit of Halloween, we have genuinely seen worst acting at a higher level. For everything that they had to work with this honestly wasn't that bad. Does it live up to the AmityVille title? No. Does that really matter? Also no. Congrats to anyone who was a part of this, I imagine it was an exciting experience.
destinyawest Amityville Playhouse has no association with the original Amityville films, lets say that right from the start. It is a very slow, dull film, with shaky camera and below par acting. I struggle to tell where the budget for this film was actually spent. Usually I would try and find something to redeem a film, but I am really struggling with this production. I do not think even decent acting could salvage this script. It had no real substance to the story line, I kept waiting for something to happen, but nothing ever did. It is an absolute travesty that they used the name Amityville to try and lure people into watching this film.
scarletstains Was highly disappointed at the lack of acting. I genuinely felt the person doing casting went to the nearest mall, stood in the center of the food court, closed his/her eyes and span in a circle with their finger pointed out. I could hardly get past the first 15 minutes of the film. Asides from the acting, the plot itself was nothing special. Nothing really happened throughout, and when things did happen, the scene just made me cringe at how poorly it was done. This is a disgrace to the Amityville franchise and should never have been given the green light. I advise all horror fans to disregard this film at all costs and just wait for the legit one to release later this year.
alicethegreat-59826 The acting (with the cringe-worthy, yet oddly humorous script playing an equal part) was sooo bad, I frequently burst out laughing. Yet, I couldn't turn it off. It was one of those "so bad, it's good" kind of movies. I imagined this would have possibly frightened me if I was a child, or perhaps an anxious teen...Nothing at all significant happens and you may find yourself scratching your head in confusion as the credits roll, but it will give you something to laugh about if you can let go of any expectations and approach this movie light-heartedly. I would actually recommend this to those who can appreciate a really wonderfully awful movie. :)
