Anecdotes
The crew shot the scene with an overflowing bathtub for real, in an actual house's second-story bathroom. This proved to be ill-advised when, just after the shot was filmed, the soaked floor caved in and the tub fell all the way through down to the first floor.

Gaffes
(at around 18 mins) Jacob cuts Peaches face with a glass shard to escape after she attacks him. In the next shot, the cut is gone.

Citations
Jacob Sterling: [to Dr. Stafford] High-tech technology. You've got to love it. Put 'er there, pal.
[the two shake hands]
Jacob Sterling: Good firm grip. Look, I just want to take a second here and let you know how much I appreciate you coming over and taking care of my family. God knows, I've been in no shape to do it. I owe you one, buddy. So, you're a doctor, right?
Dr. Leonard Stafford: Yeah. I'm a psychiatrist.
Jacob Sterling: A doctor. Sick is sick, right? Whether it's upstairs, or down in the basement.
[gestures to Leonard's robe]
Jacob Sterling: Did I tell you I went to med school? Almost.
Dr. Leonard Stafford: Uh, no. You didn't.
Jacob Sterling: You bet. But I ended up studying drafting. Majored in architecture. And I build things. Lots of things. But sometimes, doc. I've gotta tell you. Don't think I'm weird. Sometimes I get the urge to tear them down. Just get a wrecking ball and level blocks and blocks of ranch style homes. You've got to experience a similar thing. You spend all day healing people. Making them feel better. You ever want to hurt them? Make them bleed? Balance the books? Clean the slate?
[Pulls out a pistol]
Jacob Sterling: Take a look at this puppy. It's a 'Walther P38K'. Actually quite old. Worth a lot. German construction. The SS used to carry these. Some of the Berlin police still carry these today, although they're actually being replaced by more sophisticated sidearms. It's a terrific piece of machinery. Incredibly accurate.
[racks the slide]
Jacob Sterling: Never jams. It's just a work of art to look at. But I guess its day has passed.
[holds the gun to his own temple]
Jacob Sterling: I'll tell you one thing, though. You turn this puppy on some asshole and you can slip your wrist through the hole it'd leave behind.
[turns the gun on Leonard]
Jacob Sterling: Are you fucking Andrea? *My* Andrea? Don't lie to me, you bastard fornicator.
Dr. Leonard Stafford: What are you TALKING ABOUT? Look, you guys have a relationship, and I'm not part of that!
Jacob Sterling: What about tonight? Are you *going* to fuck her? Here? In *my* house? Just across the hall from where *we* used to sleep together? You fucked her!
Dr. Leonard Stafford: No!
Jacob Sterling: Don't lie to me.
Dr. Leonard Stafford: Okay, okay. Yes. I did it, okay?
Jacob Sterling: And what about after?
Dr. Leonard Stafford: What?
Jacob Sterling: Lisa. Are you going after my daughter?
Dr. Leonard Stafford: Never! I would NEVER!
Jacob Sterling: I can't let you do that. I've got to stop you. Right here. Right now.
Dr. Leonard Stafford: No! NO! NOOOO!
[Jacob shoots him and Leonard realizes he hallucinated the encounter]

Bog-standard horror in the most bog-standard of houses

Being number six in a long line of AMITYVILLE sequels, AMITYVILLE 1992 (well it seems like it could actually be!) was never really going to be any good. Supernatural horror sequels never really seem to work, no matter how much of a classic the originals were. Look how the OMEN series depleted rapidly in quality, gasp as Freddie Kreuger becomes less of the ultimate evil and more like that old geography teacher that everyone used to play up to - vomit as the EXORCIST franchise went from classic to jurassic... Number six just doesn't sound good!

And IT'S ABOUT TIME really doesn't do anything to argue this matter. Some nice ideas are here, don't get me wrong, but the film just lollops along with a pace that starts to feel like time is stopping altogether! The only gratification I got (and the only reason why I held out) was the wonderful scene where the lovely Megan Ward experiences her 'para-sexual' awakening. Great cinema - I can't really complain!

So make of this review what you will - AMITYVILLE is not nearly as bad as some from this genre, and it is not entirely unenjoyable. Just plan something else to do at the same time - this film requires only a fraction of your attention (about 10 minutes halfway through actually!), so your brain might start to drum its bio-rythmical thumbs...
