Director Damiano Damiani occasionally conveys a few genuine chills between bouts of unintentional laughter, but overall the film is a failure.

The Lutz family have managed to flee their home with their lives intact, but before them, another family lived in this house and were caught up in the original evil who weren't so lucky...
What are people saying?
What are critics saying?
Washington Post by Gary Arnold
From the outset, The Possession is calculated to make an alternately ludicrous and sadistic spectacle of the family's victimization.
Director Damiano Damiani opts for an approach that's simultaneously more shameless, tasteless, and entertaining than the original.
Slant Magazine by Nick Schager
Supremely awful.
Chicago Sun-Times by Roger Ebert
There are some good performances here, by Jack Magner and Olson in particular, and some good technical credits, especially Sam O'Steen's editing. It's just that this whole Amityville saga is such absolute horse manure.
