RETURNING TO AMITYVILLE?
Variety reports that, ‘Emmett/Furla Films, Barstu Prods. and Integrated Films and Management will produce a feature based on the myth of the haunted house immortalized in the book and film The Amityville Horror. Daniel Farrands, who wrote and directed the TV docu Amityville 2000, will pen the script. He also wrote the 1995 Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. In 1974 in a house in Amityville, N.Y., Ronald DeFeo murdered his parents and four siblings while they slept. What made the house infamous was a 1977 account written by Jay Anson that claimed the family who bought the house after the DeFeos’ demise was tormented by a series of bizarre and bloody supernatural events.’
