George Lutz, his wife Kathy, and their three children have just moved into a beautiful, and improbably cheap, Victorian mansion nestled in the sleepy coastal town of Amityville, Long Island. However, their dream home is concealing a horrific past and soon each member of the Lutz family is plagued with increasingly strange and violent visions and impulses. Fearing for their sanity, they consult with Father Delaney who realizes a dark supernatural presence has consumed the home and is attempting to propel the Lutz family into becoming its latest victims of unspeakable acts of violence...

"The 4K looks amazing. What a great release with a high video quality. I love the gorgeous slipcase."
"A true slow-burn classic with atmospheric dread. The UHD transfer looks excellent, and the surround audio mix is equally impressive. I also appreciate the understated artwork on the glossy slipcase, which gives the release a refined presentation."
"I've long been a fan of The Amityville Horror and this 4K edition is easily the best the film has looked and sounded on home video. It's also accompanied by a nice assortment of bonus features. If you're a fan of this film, it's definitely worth the upgrade."
"Great curb appeal, only slightly possessed by demons and a portal to hell. What more can you want. The VS release of Amityville Horror looks stunning, even though I didn’t score the original slip. This one still looks great. VS always knocks it out of the park with the packaging."
"This movie has somehow eluded my collection until now. Thrilled to add this beautiful VS release to the shelf!"
"I missed the original release of this, but this new slipcover edition is a great alternative. The atmosphere in this 4K scan is thick and oppressive. The textures of the house with the peeling wallpaper, the black goo, and the wood grain, all looked tactile. It preserves the film’s natural 1970s look while sharpening the clarity just enough to make it feel modern."
"A classic horror movie! Looks great on 4k. I also like the slipcover."
"Lovely package from VS on this."
"The trashier sequals of this series might be more to my liking but this has a certain feel to it that can be only found in the 70's horror that i love. Solid release."
"great picture and sound."
