10 Supernatural Horror Movies Where Nobody Dies
3. The Amityville Horror (2005)
Now, the crux of The Amityville Horror (both the remake and the original) is that death is the catalyst for everything. Hell, a deranged man killing his entire family is what kicks the story off. However, while that focus on death is the foundation of the film, it's not a theme that sticks around.
This mostly solid remake sees a family suffer as they experience the quintessential haunted house experience, with run-ins from ghostly figures and a father slowly losing his grip on sanity. But, as should be clear by now, this all ultimately comes to nothing.
The movie is another example of a horror that deals with plenty of death without dishing it out. The house itself is built on a site of mass Native American torture, meaning death is soaked into the very structure. Yet, you only see this through the apparitions Ryan Reynolds' George Lurtz encounters.
Sure, you see some death here and there, but it's all stuff from the past, leaving the kill count surprisingly clean.
