The Amityville Horror - Double Pack

The Amityville Horror (1979)

Horror based real events. Newly-weds George (James Brolin) and Kathy (Margot Kidder) take the lease on a beautiful colonial house on Long Island, and move in to discover bad smells, slamming doors, and the occasional very violent bump in the night. As the months pass it becomes clear that the house is in the grip of some kind of supernatural possession, and as the unworldly incidents become more and more troubling, a priest (Rod Steiger) is called in to set things right.

The Amityville Horror (2005)

Horror based on a true story. On November 13, 1974, Suffolk County Police received a frantic phone call that led them to 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, Long Island. Inside the large Dutch Colonial house, they discovered a horrific crime scene that shattered the landscape of the typically peaceful community: an entire family had been slaughtered in their beds. In the days that followed, Ronald DeFeo, Jr. (Brendan Donaldson), confessed to methodically shooting his parents and four siblings with a rifle while they slept, claiming 'voices' in the house drove him to commit the grisly murders. One year later, George (Ryan Reynolds) and Kathy Lutz (Melissa George) and their children moved into the house thinking they'd found their dream home. But shortly after settling in, bizarre and inexplicable events began to occur--nightmarish visions and haunting voices from an evil presence still lurking within the house. Confused and frightened by her daughter Chelsea's (Chloe Grace Moretz) cryptic interaction with an imaginary friend named Jodie (Isabel Conner), Kathy struggles to hold her family together as George's increasingly strange behaviour finds him spending days and nights in the basement of the house, where he soon discovers a passageway to a mysterious and gruesome 'Red Room.' With lucid visions and evil voices swirling through George's head, the house comes alive in a terrifying climax that finds him carrying out the spine-chilling events that would become forever known as The Amityville Horror.
