the problem with Amityville House is the completely irrational nature of the Amityville Horror itself, no one knows what the heck happened and a billion different takes are given.. most see it as demonic possession, some see it as the house being evil.. the fact it is based on a real location further muddy's the waters.

it is incredibly hard to tell when a house in a movie is intelligent or "alive" versus when a house is just being invaded by ghosts and demons.

I haven't a clue how you'd prove without doubt that the house is alive.. it could of been alive but it could also be demons.

that's the problem.. no one can be certain because the event has been blown into a game of Chinese whispers and we can never, thus, tell what happened versus what they made up.
