When they stumbled upon it, abandoned in a shed in their new home, both Bill and Claire Martin agreed it was the perfect gift for their little girl Jessica - a beautiful Victorian dollhouse. The dollhouse is a chilling replica of the original Amityville house.

1996’s “Amityville Dollhouse” isn’t interested in coloring outside the lines when it comes to brand name horror. The eight installment of the “Amityville Horror” series, “Dollhouse” returns with a new cursed object and a fresh batch of family members to pick off. After the muted ways of the last picture, “Amityville: A New Generation,” the next adventure tries to be a more active nightmare for fans of franchise, serving up wicked possession, dangerous desires, and a demonic showdown to restore some of the madness that was lost in the last round.
The AVC encoded image (1.85:1 aspect room) presentation has advantage of being an "Amityville" offering that's big on small detail, offering a sharp examination of dollhouse interiors and cloth-based inhabitants. Textures are excellent throughout, achieving a full feel for facial particulars and costuming, while exteriors are vivid, with sun-blasted distances preserved. Colors are inviting, leading with warmer, fire-lit household visits. Period clothing is striking, securing bold reds and blues, and skintones are exact, sustaining natural appearances. Delineation is strong, never slipping into solidification. Grain is fine and film-like. Source is in good condition.
The 2.0 DTS-HD MA sound mix emerges with louder levels, clarifying everything "Dollhouse" has to offer, including dialogue exchanges, which keep their nuance and sense of alarm. Scoring is active, working hard to support the effort with a heavier synth-based presence. Sound effects detail explosions and assorted acts of violence comfortably. Hiss is detected along the way.
"Dollhouse" doesn't have any sort of dramatic pull, and personal conflicts are painfully dull, mostly regulated to whiny children and a clueless father. More exciting are demonic encounters, where the production team delivers on grotesque makeup, bloody events, and laser lighting, securing a level of insanity needed to endure weak writing.
