The Amityville Horror 1979 Review

In this episode, we revisit the 70s horror classic that spawned a thousand (mostly terrible) sequels.

But what about the original Amityville Horror? Is it a so-bad-it’s-good gem—or just plain good? Tune in to Movies Minus 10 as we examine the infamous haunted Amityville house, questionable parenting, and whether this spooky staple still holds up… for all the wrong (or right) reasons.

Welcome to Movies Minus 10, the podcast where I—and a rotating cast of guests — examine films widely considered to be terrible and ask the big question: are they actually worth watching?

Because let’s face it—sometimes there’s nothing more enjoyable than a bad movie… but it has to be the right kind of bad.

In each episode, we review one of these cinematic disasters, explore the stories behind their creation, and rate them on a unique scale from +10 to -10. A +10 is a genuine masterpiece. A -10? A glorious trainwreck—so bad it loops back around to being entertaining.

FilmWhether you’re looking for the perfect film to laugh at with friends or just want to hear others suffer through the worst Hollywood has to offer, join us on Movies Minus 10.
