The Amityville Haunting
Be warned, the footage is real.
Directed by Geoff Meed
Produced by The Asylum
A found-footage haunted house film that trades on paranoia and the Amityville legend to generate dread through surveillance-style documentation of a family's deteriorating situation.
This movie is a 'found-footage' film about the Benson family who move in to the infamous house where the DeFeo family were murdered in the 1970s over 30 years earlier. Things start happening to anyone who visits this house, and whoever lives there. This is the footage retrieved from the camera.
