I honestly thought it was worth watching. Fun night with the friends! Spooky, fun. It's low budget but well put together! I understand that distribution retitled it from "Don't Sleep" so going in I knew not to treat it like an Amityville movie, because that would be unfair. It's its own movie an entity. 100% no regrets, worth watching!

Once, this movie was called No Sleep, then Don't Sleep, then it became an Amityville movie because that's what you do sometimes if you want your movie to get out there, I guess. Hey - director and co-writer Calvin Morie McCarthy is out there doing it, I guess.

So anyways, as you can guess, this has nothing to do with Amityville, yet when has that stopped us in the past?

Jim is a poor college student who gets a House of the Devil job housesitting for a strange woman named Eunice, even after he's been warned that the house itself is evil. Right away, he can't sleep what with all the nightmares and the supernatural stuff that happens when he's awake may be even worse.

Of course, most of this movie takes place in a room with people just talking to one another. It gets boring and yet never gets into murderdrone territory where it feels like the kind of mind numbing drugs that my brain demands, instead being merely like drinking an O'Doul's and wondering why you're not drunk.

I realize that they're going to keep making Amityville movies and I'm going to keep watching them. Here are a few of my free titles to improve the streaming schlock that hopefully has at least something small to do with 112 Ocean Avenue:

Amityville Alien 50 Shades of Amityville Once Upon a Time...In Amityville Amityville Giallo Amityville Christmas Amityville Ouija Party Amityville Police Academy Don't Go in the Basement of the Amityville Death House House of 1000 Amityville Horrors Amityville Avengers

I literally have thousands of these and I await any streaming production company that wants more.

The film opens with a bad teaser. Jim (Parris Bates) a boring sad sack who can't hold a conversation house sits while the couple takes Ma (Rebecca Kimble) out of there. There are flashbacks to when Ma was in the house. The ghost scenes have a blue tint to them. The poltergeist on the cover does not appear in the film, instead there is a bad imitation of the Juon woman.

Low budget and very boring.

Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.
