The other day I mentioned one film connected to The Amityville Horror and when I heard news that Weinstein Company was doing one, I had assumed it was the same one.
I was wrong. It’s a whole ‘nother film!
From First Showing:
a completely different project has just been revealed by Dimension Films, Miramax and The Weinstein Company that will also toss another film into the horror franchise. The three companies just announced production of The Amityville Horror: The Lost Tapes, a film that will take the recent found footage craze and apply it to the story of the classic horror series. by showcasing the events after the time of the original The Amityville Horror book and movie.
Ahh. Found footage. And the other project’s 3D. I’m just waiting on MGM and Platinum Dunes now to do a sequel to the remake- y’know. Why the hell not? This Amityville sis hot stuff-at least someone thinks so. I never thought I would see the day when H’wood would actually compete for a Amityville Horror movie. Volcano movies, Undersea monsters, superhero flicks, exorcism flicks… okay I can understand that. That’s a generalization. But a specific topic? And a subject/sequel/tie-in which nobody gives a lick about!?
Am I missing something here?
