Margot Kidder, I’m so sorry that her final years were so difficult and that the end came like it did. In the late 70s and early 80s, she was Lois Lane to so many, a beautiful woman fron Canada who become one of the biggest stars of her era. I always though she was great in Amityville.
It’s still sad thinking about it, she was a brilliant actress. She’ll always be Lois Lane to me, but my favourite role of her career was definitely Barb in Black Christmas, she was absolutely brilliant!
Same with me, every time time I see a Dutch Colonial Home I can hear that music in my head. So yes maybe the musical score really played it's part very well in the movie, and left it's imprinting on many, many people. There was something said that the theme from The Amityville Horror was first intended for The Exorcist but was turned down and than The Exorcist has the Tubular Bells music as part of the movies musical score.
*Rod Steiger gave thee-best performances in this movie, especially in the scene where he is trying to convince the other priests that there absolutely was a 'presence' in the house.*
I prefer this one to the remake the remake cheapened it by slaughtering the dog I thought that was gruesome and a cheap scare and the movie was scary enough it did not need it George Lutz sued over it he did not kill their dog as in this one he rescued it and they all rant together Harry in tow they lost their life savings and every thing they owned precious keepsakes pictures of the kids so if they made this up they did it for noting they could not predict people would buy it and their story never changed the producers embellished and the book author did but the familt never did of course Webber would say they were in on it he was as crooked as Butch who always tried to blame his dead sister the lutzes gained nothing from this it was true and it destroyed them Kathy looked tormented till the day she died and they both died young especially her one of the kids says things but he may be angry and have issues
@@djx8171 The De Feo family murder was real, the Lutz family who moved in next did so in cahoots with an author who saw an angle, the rest is cherries and sprinkles
@Kiwi Jello That’s all true. But other factors are also involved. If one is sensitive, to paranormal, religious factors, or other individual concerns, those factors need also be considered. I’m not sensitive to ‘ghosts’ but other ‘things’ & frequently others fail to understand. That may be an issue.
It was about as true as the people who told it. They got themselves into big time debt and were devious enough to find a way to cash in on its dark history. And people were dumb enough to buy into it because everyone loves a good ghost story. But it does make a heck of a ghost story. One of the Lutz kids actually said it was all crap and that they were fed lines of what to say happened or they saw.
It would be interesting to see one of these with the actors that played the children. They all did such a wonderful job and are so often overlooked. Margot will be young an beautiful forever 💕
I had a huge crush on Margot at the the time, saw this solely to for her, and was able to get an autographed pic of her from a PR photo for the film. But I knew she was always troubled, & I'm glad she is finally at peace, R.I.P.
I loved Margot Kidder as a kid. I loved her work in this & Black Christmas. She was very nice at a meet & greet even though I'm not sure she enjoyed those events. I know her fans loved seeing her though. I liked hearing about Brolin's brother! I also had the BIGGEST crush ever on Meeno Peluce as a kid so I watched anything with him in it! This was fun, thanks. Stay safe everyone.
I remember seeing the original movie in 1979 when I was 6 years old and it scared the sh** out of me. Im 47 now and the children singing is still creepy. I guess the movie did it’s job. I drive by the real house yesterday while in Amityville
Movie Collector he did not mean they faked it he cannot say that he meant imaginations run but that is not even the entire case here I believe them because I know evil exists and I saw the terror in Kathy's eyes and how it aged her
I don't know if necessarily the kids had been "schooled" on what to say. By the time James Brolin would've been meeting them, they had answered those same questions many, many times before then.
This is one film that always scared me so bad. When I was 18 and moved into my own place, I remember I read the book. Omgosh it scared me frozen stiff and I slept with the light on afterwards. 😀
I was in high school when the book was published in paperback and I recall it was being read among my schoolmates. Another that was read by the students was "Sybil" about the woman with multiple personalities.---I enjoy hearing actors and actresses talk about their craft. Very interesting to hear Mr. Brolin and Ms. Kidder talk about the how and why of their work.
Im not actor but like Margot Kidder she is very right. Most actors dont like to look at the film/work they do on film except during production for retakes. Because all they see is redoing a scene or negative view of their work. Even if they were outstanding and award winning.
I was finishing up my under graduate degree when the movie came out and most of us thought it was just another date movie. Don't get me wrong, I loved horror films, but not too often modern American horror films. The Exorcist was such a joke to most of us and we had thought this is just more of the same. It really was a solid film all around.
I grew up in Toms River and watched some of the filming at the house. I remember it being a big deal at the time. I didn't see any actors during the filming I saw. Just 'rain and lightning'. My father was a volunteer firefighter in Toms River and helped out a little on the movie early on. The guy doing the special effects came up to him at the firehouse and asked about providing 'snow' in the movie which is what they originally wanted. They tried using foam, but it just didn't work, so they switched to rain. From what I heard from my father as he watched some of the filming, James Brolin was a bit of a jerk when someone asked for his autograph.
I was terrified of this movie. I didn't want to see it. My husband and my cousin thought it would be great fun to physically drag me in to watch it. My husband wasn't so amused three months later if I woke in the night and had to go to the restroom. 31 years later he never tried to force me to watch a movie!
*Regarding the book: Just for 'the Hell of it' (no pun), I picked up the book one night and read half of it. The following night I read the 2nd half. I was absolutely riveted and scared out of my wits!*
my family lived in a house in Derbyshire UK that was haunted. My mum and dad and older sister and Grandfather arent liars or crazies or anything like that. It happened, they saw, heard, felt and smelt things that were real, but also supernatural. luckily the haunting was not evil, just active. I wasnt born, my mum was pregnant but my earliest memory is me as a 3 year old playing under a willow tree and then having out of body experiences at a house that i later recognized from photos as that house. I remember the view of me sitting under the willow tree playing with a toy and i remember the "trip" i took all my life but it wasnt until i was about 10 that i first saw 2 photos of the house they had lived in for a few months before i was born and i recognised it as the house i used to travel around. there wasnt a photo of the tree in the garden but I was told there was one. What is really weird is that in my memories i am playing with a toy i had when i was three and when i look down at myself before i enter myself through the top of my head i clearly look like a child of about that age BUT i am outside of the house that i never lived in except in the womb. Its freaky and obviously ive never forgotten that and i never will. I live in China now and i am very happy that the people here honour their dead and honour the spirits/gods with countless little shrines everywhere. I think that is a good thing. This supernatural shit is real. if you dont know about it then its ok to laugh but dont be an arsehole and accuse others of lying. Its just not like that. I think that house today is probably ok and peaceful but i dont doubt that in the 70's something very bad was going on and it wasnt all from this world so to speak. Anyway we live in a world where hidden things exist, you just have to see them to believe but if you never see them then thats ok too.
Margot Kidder was just an amazing actress who turned out a stack of brilliant performances throughout her career. But, she was one of the most eloquent, articulate and charismatic women in film history. We never saw an autobiography by her, and that's so unfortunate. Her life would have been such an engaging read. I hope she is resting peacefully. Margot Kidder 17 October 1948 - 13 May 2018
If James Brolin is referring to the boat house of the real house in the 70s, it was painted black due to the aging of the cedar shingles turning dark brown and the stain streaks. Rare for some homes, but not completely uncommon to have a home or boathouse stained dark to hide aging.
I was 9 when I saw it, it was the first scary movie I saw at our local theater. That movie scared the crap out of me. First, my name is Amy second my room looked like hers. I slept on the floor next to my parents for weeks, lol.
George Lutz said that Margot Kidder felt that she was way too talented to be doing this film, she never met with the Lutzes & hated filming it. She never thought it was fun & always regretted it. James Brolin became quite close to George Lutz.
I thought it was uneven (bugged me that they didn't quite stick to the book's version of events), but still quite effective, and Brolin's excellent as George Lutz.
I got to meet her right before she died. It was at a convention here in Nashville and I went to her booth to get her autograph. She was so nice and pleasant. You could tell that she adored her fans. She even let me hug her. You never know the amount of pain that someone is in just by looking at them. RIP Margot Kidder.
Since I was a little kid I've always always loved James Brolin saw him in The Car, and This film. Shame he didn't have a bigger part in Von Ryan's Express one of my favourite films. Coincidentally also love his Son Josh. God bless you both from England UK 🇬🇧 PS James don't ever ever be hard on yourself as an actor your a dam dam good actor.
I have watched this movie omg so many times, but I've never seen the part they show you of George crouching down and running towards the camera after he screams "I'm falling apart" I take it this was cut from the movie? ...best horror of its time!!!
I really loved the look of James Brolin in this movie. I'm not gay. His acting was so stiff and poker-faced that he appeared to be a true, authoritarian, husband and father. There was no pretence in Brolin's performance. He looked serious and (somehow) 'Jim Morrison.' I'm not gay.
You know like the first time with my older brother show me the 2005 remake of The Amityville Horror and I didn't know the movie was based off on a true story
In the movie, it has those eye-like windows on two sides of the house where as the real house only has those windows on the side that faces the street. Also, the house in the movie actually had your common triangle slanted roof. They added a facade to the house to make it appear to have the "barn" like shape like the real one.
I think you're mixing up the movie with the Amityville Horror episode of the TV show 'In Search of' which showed a doll with red eyes in the rocking chair. That was a creepy TV show in itself, especially that episode.
As a studied actor.... not a star... not a celebrity... not even known... BUT as a STUDIED actor, I say this. If you can make the exact same feelings, moments, lines, emotions REAL every single time you do the EXACT SAME MOMENTS and lines... THAT is acting. Not... "Oh... let's see what happens in the moment." "Let's see what happens in the moment" is for rehearsal.
Both of them in this film was both funny at times like comedian s but it was a very scary movie this one the bit wen e falls in the well and then the dog eyes are red the poor dog and wen show pig at window thts scary
It was never true it was just a hoax cuz the people that have lived there since then have never reported anything happening like that in their house it's really peaceful house the Lutz family all they wanted was Fame and they got it
Margot Kidder, I’m so sorry that her final years were so difficult and that the end came like it did. In the late 70s and early 80s, she was Lois Lane to so many, a beautiful woman fron Canada who become one of the biggest stars of her era. I always though she was great in Amityville.

The Amityville Horror and The Exorcist are the two best horror movies ever made. Real horror.
The 70s were the golden age of horror.
Love this movie. James Brolin and Margot Kidder were great. Appreciate their honesty and how genuine they seemed. RIP Margot.

He is a good looking man then and now. R.I.P lois lane Margot kidder
He is great looking today, and was beautiful back when this movie came out. Sexy as hell😘
I personally never believed the story of Amityville, but it does make for one hell of a horror movie.
It was a true story but unfortunately skeptical people will never know

We will never know for sure. Too many people have to many theories and the truth is lost in the fantasy. The murders were real. That much we know.

Shout out to Rod Steiger for his great performance as usual👍
One the best.
He was a great actor
@@kellyhenderson9972 He was the best in American Gothic 1988
He took the cake
James could play Christian Bale's dad.
Or Josh Brolin's dad.
Christian Bale's much better looking Dad! 😉
Seann Black he looked identical to Bale in Reign of Fire in Amityville
Seann Black for real!
He is Cable's dad though
James Brolin is so handsome
James Brolin, what a gorgeous man then and now!
A couple of years after this movie, he auditioned to play James Bond, but Roger Moore decided to continue in the role for a few more movies.
As a man, I cannot disagree with this, his is great!
@rkm isacunt that's your opinion. I find her absolutely gorgeous. Obviously so does James.
I can't believe how lucky he was to get involved in acting. It reminds me of how models are chosen.
For real.... ♥️😘
I remember watching this movie with my cousins all sitting on the same couch scared out of our heads. Those were the good old times.

Sybil was a crazy movie, never read the book. I've wanted to watch it again but can't find it anywhere.
James Brolin's also great in Capricorn One!
One of my all time favorite movies. I wouldnt have them change a thing.
RIP Margot. I hope you're with Jesus.

James Brolin is one of the best looking actors ever. Even at his age he looks better than some of the twenty- somethings in Hollywood today..
u need glasses
margot was one of my first few crushes
James n margot were great!!!👍🏽👍🏽
Everyone involved said she hated this movie and only did it because she wa under contract with the picture company. She felt the movie was below her !
Rip Margot
I am so upset that Margot is no longer with us. : (
Amazing actors and great movie indeed... Scared me to death, i was like😱
Yes! The best version.
It's always scary to me how Brolin becomes lost in his character; Dafoe. His character forgets what day it is. How frightful.
His character was George Lutz, Ronnie Dafeo was the guy that killed his family (earlier residents of the house)
DeFeo. He played George Lutz. DeFeo really did kill his whole family in that house.
I read the book before the movie. That book scared the crap out of me!
I would like to read it. I"ll buy it. :)
I read it first and so it bothered me that the movie deviated from the version of events as described in the book, but it was still fun.
That was one of the best commentaries thx for uploading
It’s not a great movie, but I think Margot Kidder is *really* good in it.
This was a great collaborative effort of advertising the right movie at the right time for profit. Fun journey.
James Brolin 💕💞😘
I think the freaking music was the creepiest part about the movie
I think the Omen's music the best but this one is good as well
RIP Margot Kidder. I thought she did a good job.

17 October 1948 - 13 May 2018
James Brolin spell, Margorot Kidder spell were really young in this movie
If James Brolin is referring to the boat house of the real house in the 70s, it was painted black due to the aging of the cedar shingles turning dark brown and the stain streaks. Rare for some homes, but not completely uncommon to have a home or boathouse stained dark to hide aging.
I was 9 when I saw it, it was the first scary movie I saw at our local theater. That movie scared the crap out of me. First, my name is Amy second my room looked like hers. I slept on the floor next to my parents for weeks, lol.
Ronald Defeo Was REAL! AND WHAT HE DID WAS REAL!!!!!!
George Lutz said that Margot Kidder felt that she was way too talented to be doing this film, she never met with the Lutzes & hated filming it. She never thought it was fun & always regretted it. James Brolin became quite close to George Lutz.
I had seen an interview that said basically the same thing so many conflicting stories on this movie
I would take anything George Lutz says with a grain of salt.
This is the second time that Murray Hamilton has played a person in denial, when others are pleading with him that people are in danger.
What's the other one? I know of The Graduate and another movie he's in but can't remember the name but I doubt you are talking about either of those.
@@Karmen2010 "Jaws."
Also in a plave called Amityville
Robotron 2084 Oh wow - yes! I mean, it was Amity, not Amityville but still a weird coincidence!
Absolutely correct Murray Hamilton played characters that everyone hated but he seemed to be having a wonderful time doing so
That was a fun interview though. I died laughing when he said he got scared when his jeans dropped! 🤣😂
I always enjoyed TAH. I thought it was a bit underrated
I thought it was uneven (bugged me that they didn't quite stick to the book's version of events), but still quite effective, and Brolin's excellent as George Lutz.
Rip Margot kidder ..
I got to meet her right before she died. It was at a convention here in Nashville and I went to her booth to get her autograph. She was so nice and pleasant. You could tell that she adored her fans. She even let me hug her. You never know the amount of pain that someone is in just by looking at them. RIP Margot Kidder.
@@jholttn true I can imagine her being nice bless her... such a loss and a shame ...
Great movie and soundtrack!
Since I was a little kid I've always always loved James Brolin saw him in The Car, and This film.
Shame he didn't have a bigger part in Von Ryan's Express one of my favourite films.
Coincidentally also love his Son Josh.
God bless you both from England UK 🇬🇧

They were all superb
I have watched this movie omg so many times, but I've never seen the part they show you of George crouching down and running towards the camera after he screams "I'm falling apart" I take it this was cut from the movie? ...best horror of its time!!!
This was great!!
So I just caught this movie a week ago after so many years of not seeing it. Man it creep ed me out... Thought it was well done.
I really loved the look of James Brolin in this movie. I'm not gay. His acting was so stiff and poker-faced that he appeared to be a true, authoritarian, husband and father. There was no pretence in Brolin's performance. He looked serious and (somehow) 'Jim Morrison.' I'm not gay.
ELO👌
When someone says I'm not gay they usually are.
Right...🙄
You know like the first time with my older brother show me the 2005 remake of The Amityville Horror and I didn't know the movie was based off on a true story
On the real home, there is no exposed brick chimney on the exterior, as seen on the movie house.
In the movie, it has those eye-like windows on two sides of the house where as the real house only has those windows on the side that faces the street. Also, the house in the movie actually had your common triangle slanted roof. They added a facade to the house to make it appear to have the "barn" like shape like the real one.
Dammm i think this is the scariest movie of all time, and anybody who disagree with me just try to watch this movie late at night while home alone!
It's Thano's Dad!
James brolin starred in the movie the car ....great actor
That’s great thanks
Was living in Beachwood at the time......was just a kid but remember it was a pretty big deal
I watched the movie in 1979 I was 8yrs old I had to sleep with a light on for many years after!
James Brolin said "Happy 911, celebrate the day" on a radio show.
Uneven film but largely works and is superior to the 2005 remake.
Steiger really goes to the other side in this one
We went over-the-top with Mars Attacks and The Specialist too.
The real house never had a chimney breast between the windows ..... But in the movie the Amityville horror it shows a chimney breast in the luts house
He looks so much like Cristian Bale!
Don't think James Brolin liked Margot Kidder. Didn't even mention her name.
I get the impression that they didn't get along very well
I can’t remember which video I watched but supposedly Brolin knew the Dafoes????? Anyone else hear this?
The scene with the doll with the red eyes rocking back and forth still is hard for me to watch!
Dbusdriver71 I don’t remember that scene ?
There was a pig with red eyes lol
I think you're mixing up the movie with the Amityville Horror episode of the TV show 'In Search of' which showed a doll with red eyes in the rocking chair. That was a creepy TV show in itself, especially that episode.
I always wondered why all these supposedly true life movies all came out in the 70s and early 80s? Regardless it’s a hell of a good story
When was this documentary made?
It was made in 2005.
I love the story and I believe it.
Margot was a million times better of an actor than James. It seems like they didn't get along - I think maybe he was difficult.
No, I heard she was kind of difficult to work due to mental problems. RIP, Margot

Very interesting. Really enjoyed that. 💕
1 Hell of a movie though 1 & 2 were the Best!!!!
Both of them in this film was both funny at times like comedian s but it was a very scary movie this one the bit wen e falls in the well and then the dog eyes are red the poor dog and wen show pig at window thts scary
I get the impression that James Brolin and Margot Kidder didn't get along very well
this movie just scared the shit out of me years ago just a great movie
It was never true it was just a hoax cuz the people that have lived there since then have never reported anything happening like that in their house it's really peaceful house the Lutz family all they wanted was Fame and they got it
I agree
I really want to believe that this stuff is real..this movie was awesome..i just dont know..
