To your point Matt, the fact that he murdered the whole family with a shotgun and no one woke up is part of the mystery of the actual Amityville murders. This is one of the facts that has made them so famous and strange and seemingly paranormal in the first place. There were some other weird details, but this was the main one.
@@Lamenter40K There's evidence that some did wake though. They just were groggy and barely moved. www.amityvillefaq.com/.com explains this well, and it backs up its info with sources. It's not sensationalist, unlike some of the other 'resources' out there. EDIT: That is to say, its not sensationalist like some other sites that claim the sister or mom was involved etc. It does seem to believe the Lutz family, though personally I'm not sure about the Lutzes.
@@dylanwheelhouse9932 If you follow the citation on the wiki, it brings you to a NYT article that says that the Police theorized that he may have used a sedative, since they thought it was weird they didn't wake. But it says nothing about them actually finding sedatives at all. In fact I believe toxicology showed there weren't any in their system. But there is evidence that some of them were waking or rousing at the time.
The only Ghost I need haunting me is **Khreznev**
Now I'm just imagining Adult Matt's Vader voice coming out of Child Matt's mouth behind a plastic mask.
"Have you had any trouble with vandals or trespassers?"
We mostly have trouble with Ostrogoths.
I absolutely LOVED The Blackcoat’s Daughter! One of the best of the last 10 years in my opinion
The secret red room really scared me as a kid
In high school I read the Lord of the flies. Less than a week after I finished it, I came home to our front door literally covered in hundreds of flies and slightly ajar. It was super freaky! It took weeks of fly paper to get rid of them all...
When talking about the "real world horror" that is baked into this story, Craig mentions the fear of being thrust into this family and having to change in unexpected ways (a fear from the film's male POV) but I think the inverse is also very present: the fear of becoming trapped with an abusive husband (a fear from the film's female POV). I think looking at that angle kind of explains the question that is so often raised "Why after all these red flags, did they not just leave!?" Well, for the same reason many people stay in abusive relationships.
Valid point. Well said.
"Amityville means friendship...ville."
All was calm until min. 7:20!... I couldn't stop laughing!!!
That nun throwing up will FOREVER make me laugh.
Have you seen the movie Mandy？The one with Nicholas Cage. I think it’s a very good movie. Love your videos！
Edit：Also, that movie in the movie（I believe it’s called Cheddar Goblin）Would like to know your thoughts on that too lol.
I saw this movie when it came out in the summer of 1979. I was seven years old.
We had just moved and the new house was a two-story house directly across the street from a cemetery that had an old stone fence and iron gate. My bedroom was the only one upstairs and no air conditioning. The first weekend we were in the house after unpacking my parents decided to treat us by taking the family out for dinner and a movie. This was the movie.
Needless to say, it scarred me for life. I don't know why my parents thought this would be anything but traumatic. I couldn't sleep upstairs by myself for about three weeks. My room was extremely hot but I was not about to put my hand anywhere near a window. I still remember those shotgun blasts, the red eyes, the bloody staircase and the glowing basement wall.
Our house wasn't haunted but it was...unusual. In addition to being cemetery-adjacent it was about half a mile from a park that had a small zoo. Peacocks would caw randomly and they were so loud they sounded like they were right outside your window. Their noise would in turn set off the coyotes which would howl at each other with snarls and barks. Their barking would in turn set off the neighborhood dogs for a few rounds and it was unsettling. We had a few acres of densely wooded area right behind our house and I learned that when strong winds blow, trees make noise - creaking, groaning, scraping. It was spooky.
Looking back now I loved living there. I quickly got used to the wildlife and nature noises, made friends and having a park, zoo, and forest all within walking distance was an non-stop adventure for a boy back then. I got used to the cemetery across the street as well - the "unoccupied" section of the cemetery was a great spot for tag football or flying kites. Good times.
I’m glad you were able to adjust to these creepy,unpleasant,disturbing surroundings.
Your costumes: Between the devil and the deep blue sea.
Take me to the other side!
I thought of that joke well after we were done filming. Glad someone used it.
"that night at 3:15 Kathy wakes up with an announcement ..." LOL, for real.
Hooray! 'Peter Pumpkinhead' has so many memories associated with it for me that I had to stop the video and sit around for a while and think about them before proceeding.
Because of your show, every time I watch a movie I like to think about what record I would put in the background. I recently rewatched Psycho and thought a good background record would be Warren Zevon's 'Excitable Boy'. Purely based on the title track.
Kooky spooks, I haven't seen those in years! wow!
The Halloween vinyl smock thing persisted well into AT LEAST the 90s.
I have mixed feelings about movies like this, tangentially based on true events that then invents a supernatural element. I feel like it's in bad taste and kind of disrespectful to people that actually died. This one is mostly fine because the actual deaths are mostly glossed over at the start, but there are some pretty egregious examples like The Haunting of Sharon Tate. I mean imagine your entire family was killed by some psycho and they make a movie about it where it's ghosts or some ridiculous nonsense like that, I'd be beside myself.
yeah i agree, especially about the haunting of sharon tate. amityville horror maybe isn’t quite the same because the family did claim to experience a haunting while sharon never did, but the exaggeration still makes it kind of morally dubious.
The sequel is even worse. In Amityville 2 they depict Ronald DeFeo as being involved in an incestuos relationship with his sister. How can you get more disrespectful than that.
Hooray! Love horror, love this show and love you guys!
Empty schools can be pretty creepy. Especially older ones.
Very true.
The scene with the cat was great. 🐈
Happy Halloween, Everyone. I Love the month of October. It gives me an excuse to watch ... EVEN MORE horror movies.
The fast asleep thing is part of the original murder in real life
I've always been curious, when at the end of the viewing you mention trivia about the films, when are you looking up this trivia? I thought that you might do it beforehand but wouldn't that just give away key plot points to the film?
I can't believe it. This is such a strange coincidence. I saw this movie for the very first time a few weeks ago after years of hearing about it. And then a few weeks later you guys watch the exact same version on this show. Spooky!
Found the soundtrack for this on vinyl a couple years ago. It's surprisingly good for a horror soundtrack.
Would recommend.
Happy Halloween, fellas!
I was just going to mention that the fourth Amityville movie is about an evil lamp but it turns out that evil household objects are a key feature in at least two other sequels!
Supposedly because the name Amityville isn't copyrighted or something like that, they made a lot of "sequels" which are not really apart of the first two films. That's why there are a lot of these weird films that claim to be a sequel.
@@irwinisidro More Amityville movies have been made in the past 5 years than came out from 1979-2005. One just came out 2 weeks ago. Holy cow I had no idea it was that bad.
The Evil Escapes is a blast! Best demon floor lamp ever
Keep up gods work boys, you men are great!
Woah, fancy 10-rings-Sloan! 5 rings, maybe six then I had to hang up. 10 rings was for something really really important and for adults only.
This is phone etiquette that I did not learn as a child, but I think instinctively if you're just calling to talk to your friend, I let it ring probably 5 or 6 times. If I needed to contact someone for important reasons, I'd call and let ring - and hang up and call and let ring.
I remember being freaked the hell out as a kid when I watched the bit from this movie where the window slams shut on one of the boy's hands. I don't remember seeing any other bit from this movie other than that.
I'm like Ma Bell, I've got the ill communication...
One of the recent AH films featured a house just down the street from me in Wisconsin as the exterior for the Amityville house. Very beautiful property on Silver Lake.
You mean...the Amityville House is getting...closer? It's sneaking up on us in Wisconsin?
Vader went as Vader! That’s how you do foreshadowing
I laughed the whole way through The Dead Don't Die, I'll never understand the hate.
It took a little scrolling, but I'm glad I found this comment.
He took a genre film and Jarmusch'd it. Not his best attempt at horror, but I too laughed throughout. It was a great unique take on zombies.
I just watched this for the first time the other day!
Happy Halloween to everyone in the Basement!
They now live in the state of..................INSANITY!!! DUNH DUN DDDDUUUUNNN!!
James Brolin... I always think of him from this movie, the Car, Capricorn One, and Westworld. I always liked him... but I think he was more famous for his TV roles.
James Brolin - Mr. "Happy 9/11"
**The Return Of Khreznev**
An inverted cross is the cross of St Peter so a good Catholic would see that as a good sign
I live less than 20 minutes from Amityville. Have you seen The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad? I went to school just 15 minutes away from Sleepy Hollow.
It's Harry, the dog who bit him.
Kooky Spooks not as bad as those Silver Shamrock masks.
4:07 - Night of the Creeps shoutout!
Matt is officially cancelled.
Welcome to the pleasant side of TH-cam!
Here's what I found weird about Blackcoat's Daughter is that they expect you to believe two very different looking actresses are the same person.
It's a very odd choice, and it is the main detraction, but without the two actresses, the reveal would not have been a reveal. There should have been a larger time leap. Ten years, maybe?
When you started talking about economic horror, it made me think of the first season of AHS.
i think this is one of those movies i saw much too experienced with the genre to be horrified by it. it's a little pale in the spooky next to something like Misery, and for the religious side The Exorcist scares the pants outta this....and yet i still kinda like it. less than Pet Semetary....but some masters you just can't top.
18:20 Scary part, that actually happened. Butch DeFeo gunned down his entire family in their sleep, and none of them woke up. That part was real.
allegedly.
2:09 get ready to get massively disappointed
just finished The House That Jack Built, wondering if you two young lads have seen it, and your opinions on Lars?
No way is Matt watching that.
Love horror thanks for this
Anyone else struck by how much James Brolin looks like Christian Bale?
I was thinking that too.
YES. i was thinking that throughout the entire movie....
Well, I am now.
So after watching ‘TAH’... Do you think it is the scariest film ever made? Was your sister right Matt? If not, what is the scariest film ever made?
Have you seen His House (2020) dir. Remi Weekes? One of the best horror movies I've seen this year!
Agree with Dead Don't Die. Not a good film despite the talent, but a damn good earworm of a song
what happened to doing 3 episodes in october?
James Brolin was in Westworld and Capricorn one.
I'm glad you felt that way about The Dead Don't Die I absolutely hated that movie it was so disappointing definitely a Talent Bomb
Perfect use of the term.
Sorry to geek out but this comment made my day! Thanks for doing what you guys do
I'm from Amityville and lived close to the "horror house". Ask me anything!
Dogception.
I wonder if they were able to get insurance settlement? It doesn't fall under "act of God" if it was the Devil.
No references to the witch? WHAT?
This is, what, the fourth appearance of blackface on this show?
Day four in the Ghost House?
Oh Shit!
Hell yeah d00ds
TSIF!
I see what you did there.
Have you seen Willys Wonderland
Based on a semi-true story:
The moved to another state - Was probably to stop them from being harrassed by obsessed fans and "demon experts"
I'm a big fan of the 2005 Ryan Reynolds remake.............................although I think I may be the only one.
What's the point of having those face masks and then handing the dvd over?
Quiet, you. Nobody's supposed to notice.
I just want to agree that The Dead Don't Die is easily Jim Jarmusch's worst movie. I remember really looking forward to it, and it was a huge let down.
Welcome to mobile legend
The participants in this story admitted it was fraud. The original murders however were sadly quite real.
It seems counter intuitive, but family annihilation murders have happened in real life where the victims slept through gun shots in other rooms.
Hard to understand what you are saying behind those muzzles.
Not surprised by the fact you have a hard time understanding other people
@@jrjanowi it's not hard to understand other people when they aren't behind a muzzle.
Those are face masks to protect the weak, the sick, and the elderly during a worldwide pandemic. Perhaps you haven't heard. Also, it is not remotely difficult to understand them. Look into hearing aides.
It's really very easy to hear what they are saying
Everyone: Hands off MrNaban0. We are muffled. He's not saying we shouldn't wear masks, just that we're muffled.
Christian Bale was p good in this :P
Uploaded 51secs ago.. No views.. Straight in there.:-) 1st comment..Stay Safe Matt & Craig and Good Luck for Tues.
Still no.
You both tested negative for Coronavirus, So the masks are just for style, no?
Not only was it black face the name was also a racial slur.
It's so funny to me that you guys found this movie at all scary. I just thought it was hilarious and bad. Not at all scary. I just can't take ghost movies seriously.
wow you're so cool.
Seen it? Death Line, with Donald Pleasance. Went to see it as part of a Halloween cinema thing last night, and it’s... odd. Pleasance must have been full at the end with all the scenery chewing.
