The Amityville Horror - A New Generation Reviews:
I really do believe in the devil now
2007-06-08 - God help us all if anyone thinks this movie comes close to the original Amityville Horror. This "New Generation" version is pretty bad. If I'm watching a horror movie and absolutely nothing comes along to make me feel scared, something is seriously wrong with it (keep in mind- I'm easily scared!) To say this movie is flawed isn't enough- it was just a really bad attempt to continue the series and falling flat because of lack of suspense. The storyline was okay, and all the actors were alright, but this is just a really bad low budget film. Avoid it now.

Amityville: A New Generation (1993)
2006-08-19 - In 1993, a year after AMITYVILLE: IT'S ABOUT TIME, another sequel was released and it was entitled, AMITYVILLE: A NEW GENERATION. Now, this sequel could have been a lot better, and it could have been somewhat scary, but because it lacks hauntings and fright, the film earned a three-star rating from me, meaning I thought that the film was...okay.

KEYES TERRY (played by Ross Partridge), and his girlfriend LLANIE (played by Lala Sloatman) are both struggling artists. Their friends, DICK CUTLER (played by David Naughton, famous for his Dr. Pepper commercials and his role in AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON), SUKI (played by Julia Nickson-Soul), JANET CUTLER (played by Barbara Howard), & PAULIE (played by Richard Roundtree), are all artists, as well, with Dick and Janet also being Suki, Keyes, & Llanie's landlords. While at a cafe, Keyes receives a strange mirror from a street-bum. The house is from...112 Ocean Ave. (how did you guess?) That night, while the kids are out, Suki's ex-boyfriend, RAY (played by Robert Rusler, only famous for his supporting role in A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2: FREDDY'S REVENGE) drops by. He finds the mirror in Suki's appartment, after Llanie and Keyes allow her to borrow it for awhile. The mirror casts off Ray's reflection very differently and then kills him. Suki is the mirror's next victim.

Suddenly, the bum that gave Keyes the mirror is found dead. For some reason, Keyes tells DT. CLARK (played by Terry O'Quinn) to give the bum a proper burial. Keyes decides to find out some information on this guy, after finding out that the man's last name is the same as...Keyes' last name. Seven years ago, the bum was in a mental institution...for murderering his entire family in Amityville, New York...112 Ocean Ave (only changed to this character to keep Ronald DeFeo, Jr. from getting any money for this sequel if his name was used). Keyes is then shown to the bum's room, where he has a whole hallucination with Keyes being the role of the bum and seeing Keyes' mother and himself as a child visiting his derranged father. He snaps out of the hallucination, and tells Llanie about it. She informs him that in order to beat this, he has to face his fears.

That night, the have an art gallery show, where he can stage the entire act of his father killing his family, while they sat, eating dinner (changed from when they were originally murdered as they slept). The art gallery show is going well, but the lights go out. Dick runs to the basement to turn them back on, but Suki appears, and kills Dick, but the lights are brought back on successfully. The show is now set for its final act, but instead of using a water gun as planned, Keyes uses a real gun, he shoots at the food on the table, and the shoots the mirror, which has been causing this whole ordeal. The nightmare is now over...for now.

An okay sequel, but they should have had more of a story with the mirror, as far as having it cause more hauntings and gathering more victims. But an okay sequel.

Good
2005-12-15 - If your like me and want to have a hoobie of collecting the entier series of somthing then yea thats one of 3 reasons i gave it a 3 star rating
overall me and my Girlfreind enjoyed this

Enjoyable Fare: Exploring the Ghosts
2005-12-14 - Definitely Low Budget, but with High Production values.
If you have a 5.1 surround that has an emulator mode, you will need it for this, since the audio is not for surround, and looks like a VHS to DVD transfer( of good Quality).The emulation mode will pay back with scares during the spooky scenes.
The story surrounds the mirror, but all is not what it seems. I have memories of watching this when it first came out, and it scared me then, as it does now. Mostly good cast, with a couple of extremely good people, and this makes the angle on the mirror story take flight in the best possible way. Definitely B grade, but at the price it is here, its worth it, and it does scare. The Amityville Curse "Schtick" is just an excuse for the basic story, but it works. If you can't afford a more expensive scarey film, then this is a good , VERY good alternative.

a mirror? why?
2005-10-09 - This Amityville choice has us in our seat by the power of a mirror that once resided in the house that fear built. The story might have succeeded were it not for better evil possessed item outings in the Amityville series. The camera work and effects strive to make up for the lack of ingenuity with the storyline, and never do we the audience believe this could be anything other than a B-movie attempt at the greatness approached by some Amityville films. Still, some suspense exists and occasional inventive scare tactics intrude now and again, pushing the viewer slowly along the rails of a slightly better than average haunting tale. Not really Amityville caliber, but worth a single rented watch unless you are a die hard Amityville fan who must posess all the films. 2 and a half stars
