Attempt to Solve THE AMITYVILLE MURDERS This February
At 200 Ocean Avenue in the Amityville suburb of Long Island stands an imposing home that’s a source of enduring fascination among fans of both true crime and the paranormal. This is the site of the DeFeo family murders and, according to some, a documented case of supernatural harassment that sent the home’s subsequent owners, the Lutz family, feeing in terror.
There are over a dozen movies in the loosely connected Amityville Horror franchise launched in 1979, but one arriving soon will look at the DeFeo murders specifically: The Amityville Murders will hit select theaters, VOD, and Digital HD on February 8th, 2019 via Skyline Entertainment!
Synopsis:
Based on a true event, the film relays
the nightmarish story that preceded the one detailed in the original 1979
classic film. On the night of November
13, 1974, Ronald DeFeo, Jr. took a high-powered rifle and murdered his entire
family as they slept. At his trial, DeFeo claimed that “voices” in the house
commanded him to kill. This is their story.
The Amityville Murders is written and directed by Daniel Farrands; the film stars John Robinson (Elephant), Chelsea Ricketts (Crooked Arrows), Diane Franklin (Better Off Dead), Paul Ben-Victor (Daredevil), Lainie Kazan (My Big Fat Greek Wedding) and Burt Young (Rocky).
We don’t have a trailer yet, but we’ll let you know just as soon as one drops.
