Not really a comment about the movie but kind of interesting. My mother and aunt went to high school with the kid that killed his family, he was a junkie and killed them while high and looking for money. The whole supernatural element was made up by his defense lawyer in an attempt to get an insanity ruling (which failed). I grew up a few minutes away from the house in Amityville NY, and up until about two years ago you could still fully recognize it (the boathouse was dead on to the movie) but to finally put an end to drunk teenagers sneaking around their property the new owners finally did a complete tear down and rebuilt. So nothing cool happened, and nothing cool to look at on foggy nights anymore, but it is definitely a cool story from my hometown.

@enemyjay "he was a junkie and killed them while high and looking for money"<br /> <br /> Um...I mean, I can believe going to school with him, but how do they know what was happening during the murders? They weren't there, nobody was. And all found laying in the same position, no reactions, no stirring, nobody heard gunshots. I'm not sure what happened, but I've heard about a second gunmen, which helped him get the job done, I've heard mafia hit, I've heard the supernatural side (obviously), but looking for money so he kills 6 people? (I didn't mention the high bit because being high doesn't automatically make you a murderer, that's some Reefer Madness bullhonky).
