      Audience Reviews for Amityville: The Awakening

      • Mar 17, 2018
        Rebooting the franchise, Amityville: The Awakening takes a fresh look at the haunted house that terrified a generation. The story follows a recently widowed mother who moves her two daughters and invalid son to a house in the country hoping that the change will help her son's condition, and when he starts to improve the eldest daughter begins to question whether it's really him or if he's being possessed. Both Jennifer Jason Leigh and Bella Thorne give solid performances, and the film has an interesting meta quality to it where both the real life events and the films exist. But the horror is rather tame and the forces of evil are limited in their power and influence (not really going beyond the one possession). While it gets some points for creativity, Amityville: The Awakening doesn't have much ambition and sets a rather low bar for itself.
