Fixed & Synced by bozxphd. Enjoy The Flick.
We have six members
that were found last night, in bed,
shot and killed.
In 1965, Ronald DeFeo moved his family
from Brooklyn into a beautiful three-story home
in Amityville, Long Island.
Envisioning a better life for themselves,
they even put a sign in front of the house saying
"High Hopes."
Then things went terribly wrong.
Rumors have been circulating
that there is something dark and evil
about the house...
that the house somehow drove Ronny DeFeo
to commit this grisly act.
Okay.
We're home.
Larry, you little sneaky bastard.
How'd you even get in here?
Juliet?
You up here?
Hello?
Joanie. Hey.
Hi! You guys made it.
How was the ride on the way up?
Uh, you know what, it wasn't bad.
So glad you guys are back in town.
Thank you so much for helping with all this.
What are sisters for?
Uh, have you told them about...
No.
No, I just want us to get settled in first.
- Okay. - Okay.
Well, I have everything set up the way you wanted,
if you want to check it out.
I set up an emergency backup battery, just in case.
You never know with these old houses.
And...
you know we're only five minutes down the road,
so you say the word if you need anything.
We'll be there.
Thank you.
We've pretty much got into a routine now, so...
Well, I'm glad you're here.
Everything's gonna be fine.
What did Dr. Milton say?
Same as usual.
You know. I'm not gonna give up fighting.
Of course.
All right, everybody, dig in.
Aren't we gonna say grace?
You hate saying grace.
Never stopped you before.
Well, maybe I'm embracing a change.
I'll do it.
Dear Lord...
thank you for this food and for this house.
And for keeping James safe and happy.
Amen.
Jules, how do you like your room?
Awesome.
It's got pink, purple, silver and gold.
All my favorite colors.
Did you get all your paperwork done for tomorrow?
Yep.
How's it look? All right?
Yeah, it, um, it looks great.
Besides the fact that I have to move
to a completely new school and start all over again
in my senior year.
We all have to make sacrifices.
Quiet, boy!
And what part of sacrifice
does this house fit into?
It's... it's three times as big as our last one.
I told you, we got a deal.
Save a few bucks?
That's good to know.
We moved here to be close
to my family, to Candice.
And St. Alcuin's has the best neurological department
in New York.
I want you to trust me, all right?
This house is gonna be good for James.
And that's all that matters.
Right now, yes, that's all that matters.
We all need to rally around him.
That's the only way he's gonna get through this.
Get through what, Mom?
I know James, okay?
I know him better than you do.
He's my twin... I can feel it.
He's not there.
Then whose fault is that?
James is gone, Mom.
That's enough!
Belle?
Larry, come on.
Yeah.
You still love me, don't you, Larry?
Even if you are stuck with that dumb name.
Come on.
I miss talking to you.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Let's go, people.
Hey, guys, this is Belle.
She just transferred here.
Have a seat and take notes.
We left off yesterday at page 38.
1862, the Civil War.
Battlefield medicine.
Clara Barton.
Check out the lipstick on freaky girl.
She ended up starting
the American Red Cross.
What she did was,
she taught mothers and daughters
to come out to the battlefield
- and take care of their sons. - Hey.
- Brothers. - It's not you.
What she did was revolutionize medicine...
It's the house.
What house?
You know, 112 Ocean Avenue.
Ew, what are you?
Some kind of stalker?
What? No.
How do you know where I live?
Everyone knows where you live.
- Please, just... - Hey, hey, hey.
It's your first day.
You might want to listen.
Kill... kill...
Kill...
Kill them all...
Kill... kill...
Oh, my God.
Juliet, you can't just...
...sneak up on people like that.
Sorry.
What are you doing up?
I just wanted to talk to James.
Doesn't James talk to you, Belle?
In a way, I guess.
Does he use bad words?
Why would you say that?
Okay, party animal.
It's sleepy time. Come here.
Oh, yes.
Come on.
Belle?
Yes?
How come Mommy doesn't love you anymore?
Who told you that?
Go back to bed.
Go back to bed, girls.
You heard what Mommy said. Go back to bed.
James?
Okay, honey.
It's his heart.
Sweetheart, stay with us, okay?
Belle is here.
Mommy's here.
Good.
All right, sweetheart,
you're doing great.
Who's my brave boy?
He gonna be okay.
All right, baby.
Now, okay, sweetie.
Baby?
I don't understand.
What's happening? Come on.
That's too fast.
Come on.
Come on, don't do this. Come on, baby.
Shit.
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on, honey.
Come on.
Stay with me, James.
James... come on...
Mom.
It's over.
That's what you want, isn't it?
It's what God would want.
Honey...
I'm never gonna stop fighting for you.
I'm so proud of you.
Come, sweetie.
Want to give him a kiss?
I knew you'd come back.
Juliet?
Who fixed you breakfast?
Shit.
Language, honey.
Do you want some granola?
In 1965, Ronald DeFeo moved his family
from Brooklyn into a beautiful three-story home
in Amityville, Long Island.
Then things went terribly wrong.
Are you still questioning Ronald DeFeo?
No comment.
Where is Mr. DeFeo?
What kind of a guy was Ron DeFeo?
Uh, he's a... he's...
Don't worry.
I'm just stalking you.
Yeah, um,
sorry about yesterday.
He didn't look for trouble.
You know, he was that type of fella.
You know, you're not the first girl to mistake
my basic human decency for perviness.
You really didn't know?
No idea.
Man, I can't believe no one told you about that.
Sick shit, right?
Voices told him to do it.
Took out the whole family, six people.
Wait, whoa, where you going?
Well, I already missed the last three periods,
and I don't really want to transfer again.
Hey, wait.
You ever see this?
You recognize that house?
We need to talk.
Good to see you, honey. How was school?
Why didn't you tell me about the house?
I've just been waiting for the right time.
And when would that be?
You know, it's just a ghost story, sweetie.
- It's an urban legend. - Yeah,
that everyone at my school seems to know about.
You're right. I'm sorry.
I should've told you.
I just, I really have had a lot on my mind.
Well, it would be nice
if Juliet and I could be on your mind, too.
That's the, that's the doctor.
Good talk.
But it's an improvement, right?
I mean, it-it has to be.
I know it may seem that way,
but remember, the last time we checked,
there was no brain activity at all.
But he opened his eyes.
I mean, who's to say
that-that he won't start speaking
or even sitting up or something?
Joan, you know there are no documented cases
of anyone with James's injuries ever recovering.
Then James will be the first.
Is there any way to be sure if there is any recovery?
It's highly unlikely.
But I suppose we could do another fMRI.
Great.
How much more shit do you want to put him through?
Just leave him alone.
Hasn't he suffered enough?
I'm sorry about that.
Yesterday me and Deedee went to the park.
Last night it was broccoli and carrots.
And Deedee likes to chase the ducks at the park.
And at dinnertime...
Are you talking to James again?
Yep.
What does James have to say this time?
He says he misses talking to you, too.
Hey, guys.
Hey, Jules, your mom's gonna walk Larry.
- You want to go with her? - Okay.
Come here.
One, two, three.
Ooh, yeah.
Oh, good.
Uh, Belle.
You know I don't want any more tests, either.
Then why did you suggest it?
Because this test is gonna show your mom
what you and I already know.
Did you know about the house?
Please, just go.
Juliet, you can't keep doing this.
Scoot over.
Happy Monday.
Belle, this is Marissa.
She's my girlfriend.
You wish.
M, uh, this is my friend Belle.
- You wish. - Wow.
All kinds of love for Terrence today.
See how it is?
See you later, man.
Those guys.
So, yeah, Marissa didn't believe me
when I said I knew you,
so I thought you guys should, uh, meet.
What's up?
God, I would kill my mom
if she did something like that without telling me.
Yeah, well, talking's not really big in my house, so...
Yeah, well, thank God
none of this Amityville shit is real.
Whoa, whoa. That all depends on your definition of real.
You know, if someone's talking a lot about something,
your mind starts playing tricks on you
to make you think it's real.
According to who?
Science.
Well, I'm really over this Amityville stuff, anyway.
My family's got enough demons to deal with.
I don't need fictional ones, too.
I don't know, maybe that's exactly what you need.
Hey, we should watch the movie.
No, thanks.
Come on, that, that's what horror movies are all about,
like, escaping reality
with your friends for a little while.
It's fun.
Okay, fine. Let's watch it at your house.
No. Your house.
Come on. How often do you get to watch
"The Amityville Horror" at the actual Amityville house?
Okay, sure.
Awesome. Okay.
We have to watch it at 3:15 a.m., though.
Why?
'Cause that's when Ronnie DeFeo
murdered his family.
And that's when the house comes alive.
Ah, shit. Larry.
What?
Come on, you see something?
What do you see?
Oh, that was great.
- Go, Larry. - Oh, man.
Look, I told him not to do that.
Oh, you should've seen your face.
You guys seriously have to be quiet.
- You don't want to wake up my mom. - Sorry.
Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry, sorry.
Wow, this place is amazing.
Is that a bounding circle in the backyard?
A... bounding circle?
Yeah, like, hundreds of years ago,
like, colonial times,
there used to be all this weird occult shit
going on around here,
so if they thought an area was evil,
they would do a ring around it with like, salt or fire,
whatever, to try and keep the evil contained.
Yeah, or maybe the gardener
just got a little carried away with the weed killer.
All right, so, I thought we were here to watch a movie.
Yes.
Hell, I've seen the movie a dozen times, but...
Shut up.
...I've never been inside the actual house.
Okay, I'm going to punch you in the actual mouth
if you don't shut up.
Oh, yeah?
Is that a threat or a promise?
Gross.
What's in there?
Nothing. Let's go.
Okay, so you've got the original
1979 film starring James...
Shh!
Starring James Brolin
and Margot Kidder.
Um, but just in case,
I brought the "Amityville 2," which is technically a prequel.
So I don't know if you like that...?
Anyway. Um, then, of course, there's the remake.
- No way. - No.
Yeah, remakes totally blow.
Agreed. All right.
The original it is.
So how'd you girls like
to be the bread in a Terrence sandwich?
In your dreams.
This house
is built on special ground.
Satan worship.
Demons.
You cannot destroy this evil.
It will always find a place to dwell,
something or someone to latch onto.
What's going on?
Have you all gone mad?
George!
They...
come and go through here.
Find the well.
It's...
the passage
to Hell!
What?
Holy shit.
It's 3:15 on the dot.
No, it's not.
I swear. Look.
- What did you do? - Uh... What?
- Nothing. - I really hope not.
- I gotta get the lights back on. - Well...
I mean, it's probably just a fuse.
Right?
No, we-we need to fix it
or else I'm gonna have to wake up my mom.
Mmm, okay, then where's the fuse box?
I think it's under the stairs.
Oh, great, the basement of the Amityville house.
That's perfect.
I haven't been down there yet.
Hold on.
I got this.
Who wants to go first?
Oh, God, what's that smell?
Just try and find the fuse box.
Wow.
What?
Under the stairs.
It's where they discovered the Red Room.
Whatever is in there gets inside your head.
Wouldn't find much in your head.
They say this house makes you see things.
It affects your dreams until you can't tell
what's real and what's a nightmare.
Then boom... blood splatter and brain matter everywhere.
Can we please just find the fuse box,
so we can get out of here?
Hey, I think I found it.
My phone is dead.
What the hell are you doing down here?
I could've killed you!
Uh...
we'll-we'll let ourselves out.
Yeah, nice meeting you.
Since when do you carry a shotgun?
Jesus.
It was your father's, for protection.
Well, I really don't think I need protection
from my friends, but thanks.
You are not allowed to have friends over
without asking me.
You know how easy it is
for James to get sick?
What are you talking about?
They weren't anywhere near him.
Someone was in his room.
The door was open
when they came over, but I... shut it.
Then who took his blanket off?
He's not some sideshow attraction.
Go to bed.
It's possible that he has
something called LIS...
Locked-In Syndrome.
Does that mean he's conscious?
Well, it means he may have a sort of consciousness,
but he's locked into an inactive body.
So he is getting better?
Well, looking at this fMRI scan
and seeing the return of some limited eye mobility,
uh, it would appear so.
And this thing will tell us for sure?
The EEG machine measures brain waves.
The more activity on this monitor,
the stronger the emotional response.
You ready to give it a try?
All right.
Step into his line of sight.
Hi, Jimmy.
Hey.
Jimmy.
Whoa.
That's a definite response.
Candice.
Belle, come closer.
Mom?
Are you okay?
Your brother's back.
Oh.
It's just a fly, James.
Don't worry about that.
Jesus Christ!
What's going on?
I'm sorry, uh, I can't, uh,
I can't really explain it,
but I... I don't think I can do any more for you.
Dr. Milton?
Come on, Jimmy.
You're doing great.
You're doing so great.
I love you so much.
Come on.
Let's try and just move that thumb up.
Do you want me to rub your feet?
You can blink once for "yes."
That's okay.
When this first happened, Belle said,
"Jimmy will never give up."
Okay, out! Out!
Go, now!
Hey, hey, hey, hey! Out, Larry!
Bad dog!
Don't worry, I'll never let him hurt you.
I love you more than anything in the world.
James, is that you?
Shh.
What do you want?
Come here.
Where are you?
James?
Juliet?
Jules, where are you?
Hey, sis.
Start with just
- yes or no questions. - Okay.
Dr. Milton said that would be easiest for him.
Okay.
Jimmy?
Sweetie?
Do you recognize me?
Belle?
James wants to talk to Deedee.
Will you help me find him?
Belle...
come say hi to your brother.
He's talking to us through the computer.
It's amazing. Come see.
It's called an AAC.
He can use his eyes to choose letters
so he can communicate.
You can talk to your brother again, honey.
Uh... What do you want to say to him?
I don't know.
Just talk to him slowly.
Um...
Is that really you in there?
Wow, it's so cool.
I miss you.
He misses me, too.
Um...
I just never really
told anybody about this.
You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.
No, um...
I should.
I really think I need to.
I-I was having a lot of problems
with my family
and with school,
um, in and out of a lot of different programs.
And I just started doing stupid shit.
I sent these pictures to some guy,
and when I woke up the next morning,
they were all over the Internet.
They were everywhere.
Everyone had seen them.
Everyone at school and my mom
and my brother.
So what happened?
James wanted to find the guy who did it.
And he lived in a, um,
three-story apartment building.
There was a really big fight, and...
...he went over the balcony.
Look, you didn't do anything wrong.
You know that, right?
You know, I... I really want to believe that.
And I keep telling myself
it was his choice.
He would do it again in a heartbeat.
I know he would, because...
...that's just who he was.
No, that's who he is.
Belle, he's still alive.
You've just talked to him.
You're reading the wrong book.
And you know it.
All I'm saying is it's a little weird
that your brother's in a coma for two years,
and the minute you move into this new house,
he miraculously gets better.
I don't... I don't know.
Unless, of course, it's not... really him anymore.
What are you talking about?
He's talking about a possession.
Yeah. In 1974, the house drives Ronnie DeFeo
to kill his whole family.
A year later, it nearly drives the next family
to do the exact same thing.
And they blamed it on the Red Room
that they discovered right there, in the basement.
See? It's right under your brother's bed.
So you're saying...
this evil thing...
- latched onto my brother? - Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Look, I hate to bring everyone back down to earth, but...
other families have lived in that house...
nothing scary has happened there for 40 years.
40 years... that's a very significant number
in the Bible.
"And the land had peace 40 years."
So maybe the evil only latches on
- every 40 years. - No, that's stupid. -No.
Dude, seriously? The Bible?
Look, Belle,
you're not actually buying this shit, are you?
Well, you said he can talk now, right?
So why don't you just ask him yourself?
Yeah. What's the worst that could happen?
I need to ask you a question.
You okay with that?
Is someone else...
in there with you?
What can I do to stop it?
How can I help you?
No...
No, I can't do that.
No.
I love you so much.
Are you sure you want me to do this?
I'm gonna take this out.
You're the one who's gonna fucking die!
Is he all right?
Are you okay, honey? What's going on?
Jimmy, you okay?
What did you do?
- I... - What did you do?!
You have no right to do this!
He's breathing.
He's breathing on his own.
Jimmy wants to live.
He deserves... to live.
Get out.
If you touch him again, I swear...
It's bad enough
that he's trapped in his own body, and now he's...
what, he's... there's something in there with him?
Wha... What am I gonna do?
I...
- I have to help him. - Look, Belle,
you have to help your entire family, okay?
I mean, whatever's in there with James,
if it... if it wins, you know,
it it takes over completely, it will kill everyone.
Belle, you got to get your family out of there.
Or we have to prove it to your mom somehow.
Find a way to show her
that your brother is being controlled
by whatever is in that house.
Belle?
Why aren't you in school?
I wasn't feeling well.
I'm sorry.
I'm sure I'll be fine.
No, I'm-I'm sorry about last night.
For what?
If you hadn't pulled Jimmy off the respirator, w...
we wouldn't know that he could breathe on his own.
I know you...
were doing what you thought was right.
But now you know how wrong it is.
Right?
Jimmy was always going to come back.
You do want us to be a family again, don't you, Belle?
Of course.
Good.
Get some rest, sweetie.
I love you.
Hey, James. How you doing today?
"Outside walk."
Those are your biggest words yet.
You're doing so great. Yes, we can!
Honey! Be careful by the water, okay?
Okay!
I don't know why it's so hard for everyone to believe
- he's getting better. - Well, he's getting better,
but don't you want to know why? He's really...
I think a second opinion would be good, too.
We can do that. A second opinion's okay.
- Have you asked Dr. Milton about this? - Mmm,
I haven't been in contact with him yet.
Ugh.
Juliet!
What happened? You okay? Come here, baby.
Come on.
What's wrong? You tell me. What's wrong?
It's Larry.
Okay. Don't look at it.
Is that a bounding circle
- in the backyard? - A bounding circle?
If they thought an area was evil, they would do
a ring around it with, like, salt or fire, whatever,
to try and keep the evil contained...
the evil contained...
It's gonna be okay.
Okay.
Kill, kill, kill...
kill, kill...
Kill...
kill, kill, kill...
Okay.
All right, that's great. Thank you.
So, the vet can be here first thing tomorrow morning
to pick up the body.
Thank you for doing this.
- Thanks for everything. - Of course.
Joan...
- don't worry about it. - I know.
And Juliet is gonna be okay.
I know.
How about I come by
and check on everybody after my shift tonight?
That sound all right?
Yeah, that sounds great.
Okay.
He can't leave the house.
Hey, Mom, I need to talk to you.
Mom, stop.
Are you listening to me?
Look, I know you're gonna think I'm crazy, okay?
But I... I got a really bad feeling about this house.
I think it's doing something to James.
It's-it's... it's, like, possessing him
or-or infecting him.
I... I don't know.
There's this room in the basement, okay?
I've been down there. I've seen it myself.
I swear, I think that's what's...
making him all of a sudden better.
Please say something.
I don't think you're crazy, sweetheart.
I know about the Red Room.
Come here.
Wait, wh... what did you just say?
You know I always believed in God.
And then your father got sick.
And we had to watch him
rot away from the inside from cancer.
Every day I prayed.
And then James got sick.
But still I prayed.
Two years.
The doctors are giving up on him, right?
They said he'd never come out.
- I won't accept that. - What are...
what are you talking about?
God gave up on us, sweetheart.
So I gave up on God.
And I moved us here.
Because if...
if there is some...
power...
that can make your brother better...
Better? No, Mom, no, you don't understand.
James isn't better.
This house is evil.
This house is really bad.
It's gonna drive James to kill our whole family,
just like the DeFeos.
You, me,
- Juliet... - Shh. Stop. Stop.
Come here. No, no, no, no, no.
James would never do that.
Okay?
He would never do that. He's getting better.
- Hi, baby. Hi. Hi. Get up. - Belle?
Yes. I need you to put this on, okay?
I want you to hurry. Just stay quiet, okay?
- Where are we going? - I'll be right back. Shh.
Hi, honey. Come sit down.
We're just about to start dinner.
- Hey, guess what, Belle? - Chicken smells great, Mom.
Oh, hey, Belle.
How'd you sleep?
I hope you're hungry.
Mom made all this great food.
Juliet, pass the chicken, please.
So strong.
There you are.
Where's your bed?
In his room.
It's about time we had a proper dining room.
Jimmy.
Of course.
Dad would be so happy
to see us all here...
together.
Don't you think, Mom?
Yes, I do.
Oh, fuck.
Candice?
Candice?!
Don't come in!
Call the police!
Joan?
Joan? You awake?
Belle?
What are you doing, Belle?
Juliet? Belle?
I can't get out of my room!
Belle?
Belle, I can't get out of my room!
- Juliet? - Belle!
Shh! Mom...
- Belle, what's going on? - Be quiet.
Belle?
What's wrong with Mommy?
Hello?
Juliet?
Hi, Mom.
Hi, baby.
What are you doing with that?
Don't you recognize me, baby?
Oh, God, no.
God has nothing to do with this.
Damn you to hell!
Too late.
- I left Deedee upstairs. - Shh, shh.
Shh, shh.
Where are you going?
Is that Larry?
No, baby.
I want you to go to the next-door neighbor's house
and wait for me, okay?
There you are, sweetie.
James, I'm scared.
Shh. Don't be scared.
Deedee.
We're gonna play a little game, okay, Jules?
I don't want to.
Turn over and go to sleep.
Do it.
Stop!
Don't hurt her.
You wouldn't hurt your brother, would you?
You're not my brother.
My brother died two years ago, and you know it.
Because of what you did.
Belle...
it hurts s-so bad.
I c-can't move.
Th-Th-That wasn't me, Belle.
You-you have to believe me.
I swear.
Please...
...help me.
Help. I miss you.
Please.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry about everything.
I love you.
Help me.
Take me back inside.
Ah... It's-it's... it's...
it's what Mom would have wanted.
Y-You don't want to disappoint her... do you?
Mom is dead.
So is Juliet.
All we have is each other now.
Liar.
- No... - You're not James.
You're a liar.
- Belle! Belle! No! - No! You're not James!
No!
I-I don't want to die!
Kill... kill... kill...
It's me! Please! Aah!
It's me, Belle!
Oh, why? No!
No! No! No! No!
Belle!
Please...
Hey.
Th-Thank...
y-you.
Belle?
- Belle? - Juliet?
Belle!
Juliet?
Oh, my God! Oh, my...
Baby.
Hey, hey, let me see you. Are you all right?
Are you hurt? Oh.
What happened to James?
He was gonna hurt us, baby.
But he's in a... he's in a better place now.
I promise.
Okay, now, listen to me, Juliet.
The police are gonna be here really soon,
and I'm gonna tell them exactly what happened.
But I need you to do the same, okay?
James tried to hurt us, and I need you to tell them that.
Right, baby?
- Yes. - Yeah?
Oh...
Do you think they'll believe us?
Tragedy has struck once again at 112 Ocean Avenue
in Amityville, Long Island, the infamous house
where Ronnie DeFeo killed his entire family
with a shotgun, more than four decades ago.
Police are questioning 17-year-old Belle Walker
as a person of interest in the brutal murders
of her aunt Candice,
her mother Joan, and the death of her brother James.
Miss Walker claims that her brother committed the crimes,
and her story has been corroborated
by her seven-year-old sister Juliet.
A spokesman for the Amityville Police Department
said that forensic evidence
does point to James as the killer.
His fingerprints were found on the murder weapon.
But Dr. Ken Milton refutes that claim,
stating that James Walker was too weak to get out of bed,
let alone stalk his entire family with a shotgun.
For two years prior to the murders,
James was in a coma, a vegetative state.
Is this house a source of evil,
as legend suggests?
Did it awaken and possess James Walker
or his sister Belle?
For now, the police are left with
a horrific unsolved crime, and Amityville, Long Island,
is once again the center of shock and horror.
