Amityville

It's been sometime since I've watch any horror movies. Anyway I did it today, and well, admitably, it was kinda scary, mostly due to the sudden frightens. Other than that, well, it's normal for any horror movies to just contains simple plots and a fairly predictable ending.

But what caught my attentions was the fact that it was base on a true story. It's kinda rare, as far as I know, that any horror are base on true story, for the apparent reason of course. So, well, naturally I'll go search the web for more info on the true story, turns out there was already a book on that and some article about the story being a false one.

Anyway, what's real is the fact that there was a murder there in 1974 of the DeFeos Family. It was committed by Ronald DeFeo who slain his whole family in one night with a rifle. He claimed that he was being possed by evil spirit (details are shown in the movies). He was, of course being found guilty of first degree murder trying to cash in on his parents life's insurance.

But the interesting thing starts when the Lutz family moves in, and claimed there that the house was haunted and they was driven out of it after 28 days (the flim centers around this them when the Lutz was staying there). The claim was later dismiss by a parapsychologist Dr. Kaplan, but of course as always, there are those who choose to belive the unbelieveable. But those were years ago during the '70s. The new owner who stayed there after that complains of nothing other than being haunted by curiosity-seeker peoples.

Anyway, it was a nice show. Now it's time to sleep. Yes, in hopes of sweet dreams though, since i had my share of nightmare for the day.
