The 3rd Channel, directed by first time filmmaker Michelle Blasky, creates a good atmospheric sci-fi thriller which resembles Carpenter's vision of the unpopular cult classic "Halloween III". It's a good attempt but the sound and acting were the main issues of the whole thing. The soundtrack was excellent! Really enjoyed that in general but there were a lot of points where the soundtrack takes over people's dialogue quite a bit. The ending was a let down as it seemed anticlimactic and rather unjustified. Glad however that Blasky tried with this one as Halloween 3 needs to be discussed more through culture.

I'll give the makers of Amityville Island some credit, they try for something different than just another haunted house movie...they TRY but don't necessarily succeed.

Single mom of four and newly moved into Amityville Kelly Jo (Jamie Morgan) stops at a yard sale at the infamous Amityville house,(They missed their chance not calling this Amityville Yard Sale) the items she buys fill her with evil intent and she kills her four kids in cold blood.

This lands her in prison, (Another missed opportunity...Amityville is the New Black.) where the sadistic guards force her to fight a fellow inmate (Danielle Donahue) for perverts online.

The two are sent to an island to be experimented on by two kooky doctors, (Jeff Kirkendall, and James Carolus) who are trying to make a supersoldier then clone him. (There is a lot going on in the one hour eighteen minutes running time.)

Another not-so-good Amityville movie under my belt, and there is a truckload more to watch.

Amityville Island has lots of ideas going on, yet none of it ever comes together. There is a women's prison movie, a mad scientist flick, a devil possession movie, and a zombie flick, yet none of it works in any way.

Jamie Morgan is a lead actress who has no business whatsoever being in front of a camera.

Strange film with hardly any back story and good change of mood.

I'm not sure if vague text messages count as evidence. If that's all you've got then no wonder Stacey walks around free. You gotta do better than that Sammie! Aftab and Alan should know better than to work with you again.
