The Amityville Horror 4K 2005

Some horror movies try to scare us with crowds of zombies, others - frighten us with ancient evil straight from hell, some tell about cruel maniacs, chopping into mincemeat the unruly youth. We get scared, but then we say to ourselves: 'It won't happen to me! The main thing is not to travel independently in the American province, not to buy from strange traders artifact boxes and to have a heavy metal door at home, so that all sorts of zombies did not pierce”. But there are other kinds of horror movies, and they're scary in a way that gets really scary. 'The Amityville Horror' is just such a horror. Are you familiar with the history of the place you live in?

Where do we feel safe? That's right, at home. Sitting in an armchair with a warm blanket and staring at the TV. And we're not afraid of any horrors. But 'The Amityville Horror' encroached on the most precious thing - the feeling of comfort and safety in your own home.

The main characters in the movie had their own 'American Dream'. They wanted to start a new life in a big and beautiful house. And they didn't care about anything, not even the history of that house. “Houses don't kill people, people kill people. Too bad, but they were wrong.

The movie is unequivocally good. It both fascinates and frightens, and certainly pleases with a really creepy atmosphere. It is one thing to be afraid of some conventional maniacs or the living dead, and another thing to be afraid, but not knowing what exactly, to be afraid, not yet believing that all the evil comes from your own cozy nest. When joy turns into excitement, excitement into horror, and horror into madness, that's really scary. And most importantly - these transitions in the movie are really felt, and in many respects thanks to the excellent acting of Ryan Reynolds, side centrally lived in the image. Gorgeous. But not only Reynolds rules the movie, the play of other actors also does not cause any complaints, the direction is competent, the picture is gloomy and stylish, some of the frames, though in a frame and on the wall, everyone would be like that.
