Het koloniale huis aan de oever van de rivier op Long Island leek perfect. Schilderachtig, ruim en vooral betaalbaar, precies wat George en Kathy zochten. Maar de uiterlijke schijn bedriegt en als het bloed van de muren druipt en ze worden bedreigd door satanische krachten van puur kwaad, wordt hun nieuwe droomhuis weldra een helse nachtmerrie. Nu hun levens en ziel op het spel staan moeten George en Kathy zo snel mogelijk het huis dat ze zo liefhebben verlaten, want anders vallen ze ten prooi aan het angstaanjagende kwaad.
Nee, helaas is The Amityville Horror nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
