DVD Description
The Amityville Horror (2005)
From Michael Bay, the producer of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, comes the story of Amityville. In November 1974, a family of six was brutally murdered. Now, a year later, an unsuspecting young couple, George (Ryan Reynolds, Blade: Trinity, Van Wilder) and Kathy Lutz (Melissa George, TV's Alias), and their children move into the house that was the site of the horrific event and is now haunted by a murderous presence. What follows is 28 days of unimaginable terror...
The Amityville Horror (1979)
The Long Island colonial house on the river's edge seemed perfect. Quaint, spacious and affordable, it was just what George and Kathy Lutz had been looking for. But looks can be deceiving...and their new dream home soon becomes a hellish nightmare as the walls begin to drip blood and satanic forces haunt them with sheer, unbridled evil. Now, with their lives--and their souls--in danger, the Lutzes must run as fast as they can from the home they once loved... or fall prey to its terrifying power. Starring James Brolin, Margot Kidder and Oscar-winner Rod Steiger (1967: Actor, In the Heat of the Night).

Absolutely fantastic even now,i can remember watching it when i was young and it is as good then as it is now.
With this box set you get the old version as well as he new which was good so you can compare the two my vote still goes to the older version well worth the money if your into horror movies as i am.

Amityville!.. Yes i have been to Long Island, New York, 1980, but NEVER to a house like this!...based on a true story..I would have felt something strange BEFORE i buy..This place has everything sinister....Millions of Flies in the winter season..doors banging..the 'Well' below the basement..and then the blood oozing out of the walls..this house is,or was,built on something evil.. Great value for the 2005 remake also.

To answer the question as to what is on this 2 dvd set:
Amityville Horror (Dir. Stuart Rosenberg, 1979) and Amityville Horror (Dir. Andrew Douglas, 2005).
Amityville Horror (Dir. Stuart Rosenberg, 1979): The Long Island colonial house on the river's edge seemed perfect. Quaint, spacious and affordable, it was just what George and Kathy Lutz had been looking for. But looks can be deceiving...and their new dream home soon becomes a hellish nightmare as the walls begin to drip blood and satanic forces haunt them with sheer, unbridled evil. Now, with their lives - and their souls - in danger, the Lutz's must run as fast as they can from the home they once lived...or fall prey to its terrifying power!
Amityville Horror (Dir. Andrew Douglas, 2005): On November 13, 1974, Suffolk County Police received a frantic phone call that led them to 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, Long Island. Inside the large Dutch Colonial house, they discovered a horrific crime scene that shattered the landscape of the typically peaceful community: an entire family had been slaughtered in their beds. In the days that followed, Ronald DeFeo, Jr., confessed to methodically shooting his parents and four siblings with a rifle while they slept, claiming 'voices' in the house drove him to commit the grisly murders.
One year later, George (Ryan Reynolds) and Kathy Lutz (Melissa George) and their children moved into the house thinking they'd found their dream home. But shortly after settling in, bizarre and unexplainable events began to occur -- nightmarish visions and haunting voices from an evil presence still lurking within the house.
Confused and frightened by her daughter Chelsea's cryptic interaction with an imaginary friend named Jodie, Kathy struggles to hold her family together as George's increasingly strange behavior finds him spending days and nights in the basement of the house, where he soon discovers a passageway to a mysterious and gruesome 'Red Room.' With lucid visions and evil voices swirling through George's head, the house comes alive in a terrifying climax that finds him carrying out the spine-chilling events that would become forever known as The Amityville Horror.
Based on the true story of George and Kathy Lutz, The Amityville Horror remains one of the most terrifying stories ever because of one small fact -- it actually happened. 28 days after moving in, the Lutz family abandoned the residence, lucky to escape with their lives. Now 30 years after the shocking events that inspired a best selling novel and one of the most popular horror films of all time, come revisit the house that started it all: The Amityville Horror.
