Original ‘Amityville Horror’ House Up for Sale
The house made famous in the 1979 film The Amityville Horror is up for sale in New York – ghosts not included. The five-bedroom Dutch Colonial went on the market Monday for $1.15 million. The Oscar-nominated film is based on the story of the Lutz family’s brief stay in the house in 1975 after six members of the DeFeo family were shot and killed as they slept in the home. Eldest son Ronald DeFeo Jr. was convicted of the murders. The crime spawned a book and a series of movies that chronicled various supernatural horrors, including visions of walls oozing slime, moving furniture and a visit from a demonic pig named Jodie. The original film stars James Brolin and Margot Kidder. Neighbors say gawkers still occasionally come by, mostly on Halloween. Any takers?
Before he returns to the world of It Follows for upcoming sequel They Follow, director David Robert Mitchell is first playing around with dinosaurs in The End of Oak Street.
The upcoming dinosaur movie from Warner Bros. and producer J.J. Abrams has been rated PG-13 this week for “some strong violent content, bloody images, some strong language and suggestive material.” Look for the event film in theaters August 14, 2026.
Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor come face-to-face with a monstrous threat in The End of Oak Street, which looks like M. Night Shyamalan with retro-style Amblin vibes.
The End of Oak Street is set in the early 1980s…
In the film, “After a mysterious cosmic event rips Oak Street from suburbia and transports their neighborhood to someplace unknown, the Platt family soon discovers that their very survival depends on them sticking together as they navigate their now unrecognizable surroundings.”
Maisy Stella and Christian Convery also star.
The film is written and directed by David Robert Mitchell and produced by J.J. Abrams, Hannah Minghella, Jon Cohen, David Robert Mitchell, Matt Jackson and Tommy Harper. The executive producers are Chris Bender, Jake Weiner, Joanne Lee and Leeann Stonebreaker.
