Tim Brayton Alternate Ending Paint-by-numbers tedium, mixing up most of the ingredients of the previous Amityville pictures into a grey swill, and adding a few terrible ones of its own.

Audience Member It's an alright sequel, even though it still has nothing to do with the original murders. The tone is right and the seductive b-movie plot is just fantastic. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member No, "Amityville: Dollhouse" is not worth three stars--unless one catches it on television late at night/early morning. It's cheesy, has unneeded nudity, inane dialogue and horrible performances but . . . it's not that bad. The premise is sorta interesting (for the series) and it has moments of atmospheric flair. A clumsy, when-nothing-is-on-and-one-cannot-read fitting end to the franchise--and then came a remake. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member As far as I'm concerned, there really aren't any good reasons to keep making these sequels that are more boring than exciting. This is yet another dull movie in a series that never should have existed in the first place. Sometimes studios tend to stretch out a concept beyond its limits and that is the case with Amityville: Dollhouse. Although introducing a new idea to the series, and quite frankly it is pretty interesting, the film falls flat due to a poor script that really doesn't have anything good going for it and it's yet another boring film that is void of scares and effective storytelling that will keep you involved from start to finish. This film suffers yet again from a lack of a good script and good cast. Add to that poor directing, a low-budget feel and you get another awful film that doesn't satisfy. Even with an interesting idea, the film loses its focuses due to lackluster performances and poor writing. The film feels as if it was green lit after a first draft was written, and no care was given whatsoever in the final product. The result shows on-screen and this is yet another lazy film that is awful and not worth seeing as it really doesn't do anything interesting with its plot. Don't expect anything with this one, you'll be disappointed. I never knew why they making these uninspired films as they were always dull and not scary, most of the time they were stupid and cheesy and you have that with this entry. Watch something else, you'll be glad you did. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Other than some really cool looking zombie makeup this (thankfully) last Amityville sequel is the pits and probably just as bad as Amityville: A New Generation. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member The original house is back in this film, albeit in miniature size. and it, of course, begins to wreak havoc on the tenets of a newly constructed home. An idiotic film, to say the least, Amityville Dollhouse is still relatively entertaining for fans of bad horror cinema, such as myself. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member This has been the best Amityville for a while, although the concept of a doll house having an affect on the old site of the real house is a bit bizarre... However, that's absolutely nothing unusual for this series! Although there were some rather pathetic scenes and the characters were often very wooden, the scene with the mouse is by far the most creative thing the series has done for a while, no lies!
