Production

The film was loosely based around Hans Holzer's book The Amityville Curse. The movie is unusual for featuring a completely different haunted house and a different background than the rest of the series.

Even though the setting of the film is supposed to be in Amityville, it is not actually 112 Ocean Avenue, the setting for the previous Amityville films. The house used here is a different house. This film has a plot line and back-story completely unique to this film and is in no way connected to the previous films. A brief reference is made to the DeFeo murders and to the town's supernatural history.

Release

It was made in 1989 and released to video in May 1990. This is the only movie in the series that has not been released on DVD in the US.
