    • Trivia
      The crew shot the scene with an overflowing bathtub for real, in an actual house's second-story bathroom. This proved to be ill-advised when, just after the shot was filmed, the soaked floor caved in and the tub fell all the way through down to the first floor.
    • Goofs
      (at around 18 mins) Jacob cuts Peaches face with a glass shard to escape after she attacks him. In the next shot, the cut is gone.
    • 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]

    Pretty decent B horror movie...

    I love B-horror movies. Ones that are not too gory, slightly campy. Amityville 3-D is one of my favorite all time movies.

    So when I saw this out on DVD, I scooped it up. I wasn't sure what to expect.

    It's actually quite decent.

    This guy, the father of a family, brings home this clock. Which came from the Amityville house, but has an older history than that.

    The family is a bit odd - you have the father and two children (both teenagers, one a metal-head guy and the other sort of a goody girl) and an ex-girlfriend of his, living with them. She apparently helps take care of the kids while he is a away. And she has a boyfriend, a stereotypical loafer wearing psychiatrist.

    Anyway, various haunting type stuff happens. Much of it is time based, since it's focused around the clock. Most of this is pretty cool, actually. Also some stuff from the original movie, the black goo coming out of the ground/pipes stuff. And some stuff seems borrowed from the Omen series. And meanwhile, the father gets possessed. Sort of. But he's not really the focus of the movie. Basically each character gets equal time, with the main focus being the ex-girlfriend.

    I really enjoyed it a lot. Not scary, but lots of stuff is different than you'd expect, or think what will happen. Surprisingly intelligent. Much better than the original movie.
