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.

The Theme Song with the creepy kids singing still freaks me out.....

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.

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.

The Amityville Horror and The Exorcist are the two best horror movies ever made. Real horror.
The 70s were the golden age of horror.

I personally never believed the story of Amityville, but it does make for one hell of a horror movie.

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 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.

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 💕
