    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Director Tony Randel and production designer Kim Hix designed the interior of the main house to be an intentionally unpleasant, off-putting, nightmarish caricature of a suburban home.
    • Goofs
      A microphone can be seen dangling above the characters several times in the film. First, in the scene down in the kitchen before Rusty and Lisa leave for school and before Jacob goes jogging (at around 15 mins). Again in the hospital while the doctor greets Andrea (at around 18 mins), when Andrea is introducing Leonard to Jacob (at around 39 mins), when Lisa and Andrea are in the living room talking (at around 55 mins), and at the end of the movie when Andrea is leaving the house.
    • Quotes

      Jacob Sterling: [to Dr. Stafford] High-tech technology. You've got to love it. Put 'er there, pal.

      [the two shake hands]

      Jacob Sterling: Good firm grip. Look, I just want to take a second here and let you know how much I appreciate you coming over and taking care of my family. God knows, I've been in no shape to do it. I owe you one, buddy. So, you're a doctor, right?

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: Yeah. I'm a psychiatrist.

      Jacob Sterling: A doctor. Sick is sick, right? Whether it's upstairs, or down in the basement.

      [gestures to Leonard's robe]

      Jacob Sterling: Did I tell you I went to med school? Almost.

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: Uh, no. You didn't.

      Jacob Sterling: You bet. But I ended up studying drafting. Majored in architecture. And I build things. Lots of things. But sometimes, doc. I've gotta tell you. Don't think I'm weird. Sometimes I get the urge to tear them down. Just get a wrecking ball and level blocks and blocks of ranch style homes. You've got to experience a similar thing. You spend all day healing people. Making them feel better. You ever want to hurt them? Make them bleed? Balance the books? Clean the slate?

      [Pulls out a pistol]

      Jacob Sterling: Take a look at this puppy. It's a 'Walther P38K'. Actually quite old. Worth a lot. German construction. The SS used to carry these. Some of the Berlin police still carry these today, although they're actually being replaced by more sophisticated sidearms. It's a terrific piece of machinery. Incredibly accurate.

      [racks the slide]

      Jacob Sterling: Never jams. It's just a work of art to look at. But I guess its day has passed.

      [holds the gun to his own temple]

      Jacob Sterling: I'll tell you one thing, though. You turn this puppy on some asshole and you can slip your wrist through the hole it'd leave behind.

      [turns the gun on Leonard]

      Jacob Sterling: Are you fucking Andrea? *My* Andrea? Don't lie to me, you bastard fornicator.

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: What are you TALKING ABOUT? Look, you guys have a relationship, and I'm not part of that!

      Jacob Sterling: What about tonight? Are you *going* to fuck her? Here? In *my* house? Just across the hall from where *we* used to sleep together? You fucked her!

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: No!

      Jacob Sterling: Don't lie to me.

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: Okay, okay. Yes. I did it, okay?

      Jacob Sterling: And what about after?

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: What?

      Jacob Sterling: Lisa. Are you going after my daughter?

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: Never! I would NEVER!

      Jacob Sterling: I can't let you do that. I've got to stop you. Right here. Right now.

      Dr. Leonard Stafford: No! NO! NOOOO!

      [Jacob shoots him and Leonard realizes he hallucinated the encounter]

    Really good direct to video effort. Creepy concept.
    A decent straight to video sequel to a "popular" franchise. "It's About Time" centers on a possessed clock that happens to be from the original Amytiville house. A family with intentions to renew their life, move to a beautiful mansion. Unfortunately for them, they buy the possessed clock and that's when things start to get horrible.

    This is probably the second best sequel in the franchise, following "The Possession", a sinister sequel. "It's About Time" obviously centers on the possession topic and has the occasional poltergeist scenes provoked by the clock's evil glow.

    This movie scared me when I first rented it (I was 8 or 9) because it has a dark, creepy atmosphere. The mansion is scary enough for a movie like this. The f/x are below average but it's normal for a direct to video sequel.

    If you are a fan of haunted house or possession flicks, this is a very good option that exploits the greatness of direct to video.
