Amityville II: The Possession (1982)
Member Rating:  
Delving into the horrific history of the infamous Long Island haunted house, this prequel to 1979's popular chiller The Amityville Horror is loosely based on the DeFeo murders but is at heart a straightforward horror-exploitation film with an Exorcist twist. When the violently dysfunctional Montelli family moves into the rustic abode (claimed to have been built on an Indian burial ground), the standard haunted-house clichés (bleeding walls, swarms of flies, bubbling black goop) give way to a more direct demonic attack on the eldest son -- who develops an unhealthy interest in his nubile younger sister, followed by a much more lethal attraction to dad's shotgun. In a desperate attempt to purge the evil, the local priest tries to perform an exorcism...with unexpected results. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

Scary and will Bring Back Some Feelings You May Have Had While Watching The Exorcist. Scarier then the First Amityville.

The scene where the brother gets his young teen sister to strip naked so he can pretend to photograph her and then have sex with her is worth the rent alone. LOL. Just kidding. This movie is horrible. That scene is in there, but it is the only creepy scene in the entire film. Take my advice and avoid any film with the name Amityville attached to the title -- even the recent remake.
