This is straight up a reimagined version of Amityville Horror. The husband becomes obsessed with the house and becomes essentially possessed, no longer caring about his wife and their child. It's even set in the 70's, I mean c'mon. I think the creators actually really wanted to remake Amityville but after the Ryan Reynolds version did horribly they thought they could just changed a couple things, obviously out it Ina different house and no one would be the wiser. Vrry disappointed, it's proof once again that original horror stories are getting harder to come by. Even the great ones like "Insidious" and "The Conjuring" had something great and then sequeled it to oblivion. With Conjuring all I can say is that at least we got "The Nun" out of it, and if stops at the second movie then I will call that a win. But again this movie is just a rip off, and not even a good rip off. My recommendation is to just go and watch the original "Amityville Horror" and you'll what you thought you were going to get from this.
