Amityville Horror Gets Another Found Footage Film

Evergreen Media Group and producer Tony DeRosa-Grund are prepping yet another film about the "The Amityville Horror" says  The Hollywood Reporter.

The infamous house saw Ronald DeFeo, Jr. murder six members of his family in 1974. However it was a year later when the house's new tenants, George Lutz and his family, claim to have encountered paranormal horrors that forced them to abandon the property after less than a month.

The story led to author Jay Anson 1977 book which spawned ten movies about on the incident--Most of them truly awful

This version will be based on the experiences of two reporters Laura DiDio and Marvin Scott, who investigated the incidents in for New York TV station WNEW.

Here's what DiDio had to say about the project.

"Marvin and I are thrilled to be working with Tony and Evergreen. I lived through this horrific ordeal, and I am the only person who has the ability to tell the true Amityville prequel story in its entirety. Even after all these years, after what I personally experienced, there is nothing anyone could ever do or say to get me back in that house."
