    Amityville: The Awakening (film)

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Ugh, I wonder if the Lutz family had any idea how long a life their scam would have.
    And how bad the movies about it would be...

    Ron,

    Spot on! Ironic, isn't it?

    Something smells of 'Money grabbing necromancy' on the production side too though...

    Personally, I'm getting fed up of all of this 'Rebooting of a Retelling pseudo sequel'
    Type stuff, lets face it, if it needs rebooting, then it's broken, and half the time, it's not!
    It just shows a lack of imagination and foresight. They can't come up with a good scary
    ghost story idea themselves (and there are plenty of them), so they decide to 'Dig up
    grandma to see if she'll dance the jig one last time' - and invariably fail, just to grab
    some more $$. meh!

    On the other hand, when given good source material (See WWZ) they butcher it beyond belief
    and turn it into a mediocre film at best ?Huh?

    I'm a horror film fan, always have been. Particularly of the Zombie and Paranormal genre
    But, it's been a loooong time since I've seen a good one. Most seem aimed at the teenagers
    friday night sleep over eating cheetos these days.

    What was the last 18-cert, seat of your pants, good horror film you saw at the movies?

    Anyway, Rant over ... phew .. mental note to self, 'Do not post on forums when not in
    good mood ....LOL'


    Have a good one, Rich
