Back in May 2011 plans were announced for The Amityville Horror: The Lost Tapes a found footage style reboot of film series from producer Jason Blum ("Paranormal Activity," "Insidious").
Blum recently told Crave Online, that the film is "still going" and they're definitely going to make it, but they "don't quite know yet when."
The tale was based on a true story--later an admitted hoax--about a family moving into their apparent Long Island dream house, only to discover a murder took place in the house several years back and now the place is now haunted.
First put on film in 1979--starring James Brolin and Margot Kidder-- directed by Stuart Rosenberg that classic film spawned several horrid sequels
Then the story was remade in 2005-- sure the film grossed over $100 million at the box office worldwide but it was almost universally panned and is now more famous for showing off a very buffed up Ryan Reynolds than scaring anyone.
Aww, I actually kind of liked the reboot. Then again, part of the reason is because of Ryan Reynolds being shirtless...hmmm
