A 1979 horror film directed by Stuart Rosenberg, starring Creator/JamesBrolin, Creator/MargotKidder, and Creator/RodSteiger.
It is based on a [[Literature/TheAmityvilleHorror novel of the same name]] by Jay Anson that chronicles the ([[BasedOnAGreatBigLie supposedly true]]) events that befell the Lutz family, who moved into 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York only to move out 28 days later, claiming to have been terrorized by paranormal phenomena there.
In December 1975, recently-married couple George and Kathy Lutz (Brolin and Kiddder) move into the Amityville house along with Kathy's three children from a previous marriage. The house was available at a bargain price, and for a very good reason: it was the scene of a multiple murder, when the previous owner, Ronald "Butch" [=DeFeo=] Jr., shot and killed six members of his family on November 13, 1974. During their stay in the house, the Lutzes -- along with local Catholic priest Father Delaney (Steiger) -- start to experience various phenomena that tell them that whatever malevolent force drove [=DeFeo=] to such violence might still be there...

Adult Fear is now a disambig
Deleted line(s) 16,20 (click to see context) :
* AdultFear: There are various examples of this:
** A lot of the drama and even some of the horror in the movie centers around money problems: Kathy's brother loses $1500 in cash, George bounces a check and his business seems to be in trouble. Finally there's the very real concern that the house, aside from being evil, is an $80,000 investment that's going FromBadToWorse.
** Kathy's children are from a previous marriage, and George worries about them accepting him as their father even before the haunting begins.
** The children are being terrorized by the house as much as the adults, and there's a growing possibility that George will hurt them himself.
** Then there's that most fearsome and adult of adult fears: in one scene, George [[TheLoinsSleepTonight can't get it up]].
