Well, granted, this 2021 horror movie's cover/poster was actually interesting enough to make me sit down and watch it. And yeah, I was somewhat hesitant, or even skeptical, about watching it, given the fact that the movie had the word "Amityville" in its title. It isn't exactly like movies with that name in the title are known for their great entertainment value.
But still, the movie should be given a fair chance, so I sat down and watched it. And as I had anticipated, then writer and director Thomas J. Churchill just didn't manage to deliver a wholesome movie here. So the curse of the "Amityville" titled movies continues on.
Was "The Amityville Moon" watchable? Sure, but it wasn't a particularly grand or memorable foray into the horror genre. And for this being a werewolf movie, then it was a very weak attempt at a jab at the werewolf sub-genre of horror. At least if there had been more scenes with the actual werewolf, then perhaps "The Amityville Moon" would have been more enjoyable.
The pacing of "The Amityville Moon" was slow and tedious, without much of anything interesting actually happening. So it was a rather dull and monotonous movie experience. And I have to admit that I ended up giving up on finishing the movie without about 20 minutes left, give or take. Yup, the ordeal was that tedious.
The acting in the movie was adequate. You will not be in for any great or memorable acting performances here, nor will you be in for a grand cast ensemble. But in all fairness, then the actors and actresses did an okay job with the limited material they had to work with.
My rating of "The Amityville Moon" lands on a mere three out of ten stars.
