Amityville: The Awakening (2017)
Classic possession movie with a twist
If Cameron Monaghan wasn't in this film it would of gotten a 3/10. Even though he barley speaks throughout the film, just his body motions alone provide that extra unease during a "scary" scene.
This was a classic haunting movie, family moves in, house is haunted and someone gets possessed. What separates this movie from the rest is the family knew what they were getting into, well specifically the mother. I found that interesting as you never find a film where the family wants to get possessed.
Again, the plot was a classic with a little twist. Acting was sub par, Monaghan carrying most of that. If you have already seen the original and remake of Amityville, and want more definitely give this a watch. But I wouldn't go out of your way to watch this.
1BR (2019)
Something different
Definitely watchable for a low budget horror/thriller. The concept of the movie is what I liked the most, it was definitely something new and creative. The cinematography was okay, you can tell they made it work with what they had. Acting could of been a lot better. But overall it is a watchable movie that some viewers may find interesting. It would of been nice if the plot twist at the end went a little deeper into the origin.
If you enjoy horror/thriller movies and you can't find anything to watch on Netflix, give this a try. You may enjoy it or not. 5/10
