Today I went to the movie with my sister to finally watch The Amityville Horror. At first, if you're fan of awesome horror movies, that really scare the crap outta you, I recomend you this film. I believe everyone has at least an idea of what The Amityville Horror was, so I won't ramble about it. But the movie is so thrilling (and I badly anticipated it since I read the book) that I'd like to discuss some things that it made me think about.
Since whenever, we, human beings, wonder about life after death or if spirits, ghosts, poltergeists are real or just literature imagination. Many claim that the Lutz's story is a hoax. That by making up a horror story they'd get easy money. These people may be right, however, I don't believe that stories like the Lutz's are impossible. Since I belive that human beings have spirits, I believe that after a completed circle (death) spirits remain around us, carrying characteristics of their carnal lives. So I do believe in "evil" spirits and that they can influence our lives. No, I'm not a religious freak that believes all our actions and thoughts are influenced by the demon, actually, I don't believe on the Devil.
What's kind of interesting in all this is the attraction for the ocult that we grew in ourselves. Literature and cinema have been exploring this field exhaustingly and, even if most of the stories are similar, it still steals our attentions. As they say, it's what we don't know that fascinates us the mostly.
