You won’t find another film that has a scene in which an old lady battles a lamp while the lamp’s cord is wrapped around a young priest’s arm. Go to Full Review

3/5
The film clearly has a smaller budget and shorter shooting schedule, but credit to the props department for creating one cinema's ugliest lamps and every character in the film commenting on it. This is silly, dumb fun and has two great older actresses Go to Full Review

Credit where credit's due: it most have taken some work to make "floor lamp possessed by demons" even more ridiculous-looking than it sounds. Go to Full Review

thiago s @Thiagostone Jul 15 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas de terror são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more James B @James_B 11/03/2024 Amityville 4 is one of the better films but starts a trend of having the evil of the house in random objects but it is still a good film. See more David W @Sternhammer 03/17/2024 Congratulations to the props department for creating the ugliest standard lamp in cinematic history and to the cast for taking this seriously. It's not a terrible film, it's actually quite good of it's type and whilst the horror is primarily implied rather than there being any gore, it's quite effective, largely due to the cast who do a good job. See more Eddy C @EddyDarkstar 06/26/2023 Not that bad of a movie, some TV soap acting, but its an entertaining Sunday movie See more michael d 11/21/2022 One star for the lamp itself. See more 01/06/2021 Even though my belief is that both the talents of Patty and Jane was wasted, this was a cut above most of the later series. As one of Jane's "sisters" sends her a somewhat ugly lamp floor lamp (as a joke), where she bought it at a yard sale of stuff found in the Amityville house. where the evil spirit from the house invades the lamp. The lamp is delivered as soon as Patty and her "family" comes to stay. This movie (Like I said is a cut above from the rest of the series),is interesting to see what happens .
