The Amityville Horror (2005) is a supernatural horror film directed by Andrew Douglas and produced by Michael Bay through Platinum Dunes. It stars Ryan Reynolds, Melissa George, and Chloë Grace Moretz in her first major film role. This remake revisits the infamous haunting based on the true events at 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York — one of the most terrifying real-life horror stories ever recorded.
The film is a reimagining of the 1979 classic, itself inspired by Jay Anson’s best-selling novel and the alleged experiences of the Lutz family, who claimed their home was haunted after a gruesome mass murder. Combining psychological tension, paranormal activity, and family drama, it modernizes the haunting with intense visuals and emotional performances
