10 Most Cursed Horror Films To Watch This Halloween 2020

Another movie based on somewhat true events also enters this list, with a variety of remakes surrounding the Amityville horror. The story follows a man who rampages and kills his entire family, claiming soon after that the devil made him do it, hearing voices that told him to shoot all six members that resided in the building.

Based on the novel from 1977, the movies have since followed the narrative of the Lutz family who moved in to the home shortly after the murders took place there, experiencing unspeakable horrors and nearly falling victim themselves.

In the original 1979 cinematic version of the book, the lead actor James Brolin has since claimed that a strange presence made him take the part, after reading the script and experiencing a paranormal sense in the room he was in. An item of clothing fell off a hanger and made him jump, sensing a sign that he should take the intriguing role.

In the 2005 version, the lead is played by Ryan Reynolds, who suffered many sleepless nights during and after production, claiming that he would wake at the 'witching hour' of 3:15am every morning, just like the story suggested the Lutz family father went through.
