A brief recap of Amityville movies... there were a few movies about a haunted house, then in the 3rd movie, the house blew up. At part 4 and just about every movie after that, it was about some random cursed items from the house winding up in cities all over the country. It didn't really matter after a certain point, and then the b-movie companies went hog-wild with it, just like they did with shark movies. There are infinity Amityville movies now, and this is one of them.

image I was actually wondering wtf this movie had to do with Amityville, but they clear that up for you: it's haunted wine from the Amityville house. And now it ends up in the hands of a Karen in California.

Honestly, who cares about the Amityville part. The first half of this movie is straight-up about a horrible Karen being a horrible person, and that works all on its own. The whole idea of our Karen is reminiscent of how a Mink Stole would react in Desperate Living. I think Mink might be the OG Karen actually.

Our Karen is played by Lauren Francesca, who is actually pretty hot and therefore easy to watch, no matter how much of a cunt she is being. Besides, you don't ever actually hate her, because her depiction is too funny to take seriously. "Oh, I forgot to harass the gardener today!"

Eventually, she drinks enough of that tainted wine to get possessed and/or go insane, and she starts killing her stupid friends over trivial matters. It's basically a perfect plot, though the execution is still only mildly amusing. Shit rating on imdb makes for some good points though.

I watched this last November, I think. Far more entertining than I thought it would be. That's probably about 4 of these movies I like now. A really lousy series, even before all these new ones started coming out on a weekly basis. Might look into Amityville Death Toilet before the month is over.

It's pretty boring so far, but there are hilarious moments. For a shorter movie, there's still a lot of filler. I guess it's hard to write a feature length movie about a stationary antagonist.

Just a heads-up: I LOL'd at this sentence: "Our Karen is played by Lauren Francesca, who is actually pretty hot and therefore easy to watch, no matter how much of a cunt she is being."

I keep thinking involuntarily of Blood Diner, since reading this thread. Something about the way you described Amityville Karen reminds me of the sense of humor in Blood Diner. I know, they are totally differet movies, but would you say there is any common ground, just in the feeling of the sense of humor in both movies??

Blood Diner is more of a splatter flick. Amityville Karen is more of a low budget piece of crap that somehow shines despite how lame it is. I don't think they're very comparable.

Blood Diner is an amazing underrated 80's horror comedy you just don't see the likes of today. Remind me, what exactly is a "Karen?"

So you're not pretending?! emoticon

A Karen is an entitled bitch/housewife who complains a lot, is extremely rude to lower class workers like waiters and gardeners, and she tries to get things canceled. The type who demands to speak to a manager at the slightest perceived transgression. Urban dictionary probably has a better definition.
