When The Montellis, an Italian-American family, move into the not-yet notorious home, it's not long before rebellious teenage son Sonny (JACK MAGNER) takes to seducing his sister (Diane Franklin) and slaughtering the entire family. Investigation by the authorities points to the boy's demonic possession, which is later evidenced by a grisly EXORCIST-inspired physical transformation. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

Amityville II: The Possession is different from the first installment, and that's really good because it's a good film. The horror here escalates smoothly, culminating in various forms, and you're truly not sure what's really going on with the character of Sonny. That is very good and it has the right effect on the viewer. Moreover, the screenplay is good, it has momentum, and it doesn't bore until the very end. I confess I didn't expect this from the second part.

My 2011 Xmas horror film :-) … A very pleasant surprise and as good as the excellent first part. Basically, I’ve reached a stage where I’m slowly losing faith that I’m going to discover a horror film from the 1970s and later that I don’t know and that will thrill me, and the second Amityville has taken taken me out of that error (if only it happened more often). I certainly recommend this sequel.

First of all, I have to mention the unfortunate casting decision to put Burt Young in one of the main roles, a guy who never knew how to act and was barely good enough for small roles, and here he is looking like he has a pain in the ass the whole time. Otherwise it was better than I would have expected thanks largely to Damiano Damiani's directorial skill. It's a film of two halves, and the climax comes about halfway through, where Damiani does a great job of spiking the tension and playing with the camera and the sound. There's also some of that Italian sleaze, so there's a flash of gore here and there, and on top of that unexpected incest between two siblings. But then for the rest of the film it devolves into a rather uninspiring variation on The Exorcist, which is a shame because here Damiani has hit his ceiling and doesn't bring anything more to the film. The ending with the exploding latex is like something out of a Troma movie.
