She, along with 3 friends, decides to spend the weekend there looking the place over. Meanwhile one of her High School teachers begins an investigation into the village's past and makes a connection with something that goes back beyond recorded history. Amityville Playhouse feels like a really bad school project that a bunch of kids had to film and unfortunately? It might be even that since the acting, script, story were bad.
Michael Ledo 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
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. :)
laughterspenser A true slap in the face to film. 15 minutes in I could not watch another minute.There is no story line and the cover supposedly shows an image of the theater when in face it looks nothing like that. I agree to the fullest with the other reviews that when you use a word like Amityville in your title, you better be able to back it up. High school film projects have less flaws. The main actress is a disgrace to acting, she must be the writer or directors daughter. All in all, I wouldn't wish this movie to be watched by my own worst enemy. I'm doing you all a favor with this review I'm sorry but it really is as bad as I'm portraying it Do yourself a favor and warn others as well. You have been warned....
