Okay, this is kind of silly, but I was watching Amityville 2: The Posession, which is the sequel to the original "Amityville Horror." Now, I'm a fan of the original (plus of haunted house stories in general), but I know sequelitis is easy to strike, especially in a series like this. While on twitter, a lot of people were surprised to learn that the original movie had sequels, nay, that it had SEVEN sequels. Mind you, after the third movie, they realized that nobody would be staying at a haunted house after that point, so instead they took the incredibly goofy route with the direct-to-video sequels and started having random objects from the original house popping up other places.
When I started listing them off, people came up with their own sequel ideas, many of them really damn good, so I didn't want to retweet ALL of them and instead decided to compile my favorite ones here. Enjoy!
For reference, here's the original series (with my own silly additions):
1. The Amityville Horror
2. Amityville 2: Sort of a Prequel but not really
3. Amityville 3: I haven't seen it yet
4. Amityville 4: Evil Killer Lamp
5. Amityville 5: A Haunted House, but not the same haunted house as the original
6. Amityville 6: The Cuckoo Clock of Doom
7. Amityville 7: Evil Haunted Mirror Ghost
8. Amityville 8: This Time it's a Dollhouse that looks like the original house

Sounds to me more like rejected Friday the 13th sequels.
I thought that Amityville 359 would be the US Military try to take down the Amitiville house, but is completely devastated, just leaving one lieutenant alive, who gets visited years later by the owner of the original house to get his sequel.
^^
Nice list. ^^
Greets
Cal
Pretty sure I've seen Phelous review a few of these.
What's sad is that you just know that at least 2 or more of these are actually gonna come out.
You just know it. XD
Ehem, did Brad Jones contribute #58 by any chance?
Amityville 39: The true horror is that you’re still buying this crap!
I think Amityville Horror 100 has potential. I know that I'd be running around looking for a lighter and can of gas by that point.
Glad you saw mine. It was originally going to be number 420, with the plot involving cannibus being grown on the soil where the house used to be and anyone who smokes it gets possessed by the spirit of the house... but that couldn't fit into a tweet. Plus, a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy reference is always a better choice.
Good list, Linkara. Lol. I didn't know it had that many sequels.
The third film is about the same haunted house. However, most of the victims are not actually in the house.
Instead, the evil of the house attacks people via annoyingly-loud flies and 'Final Destination'-style event kills.
It's also a '3-D film,' but has no 3-D release. I guess nobody cares to re-release it.
Well, you know that list isn't real, of course. If it was, they'd have had a "Darker and Grittier" reboot somewhere in there. (Hey, everyone's doing it).
Seriously, though, I think my favorite is "Whoever wins, Nobody cares."
Amityville 33.3: Rape Stove the Stove that Rapes!
Personally, I refer Amityville Horror 3 as the one with Lori Loughlin from Full House as really, that's pretty much the only notable thing about it.
And that's saying something.
Amityville 1992 Its about Time actually isn't all that bad as Z-grade horror sequels go.
Amityville 77 Fridge of fear
Amityville 78 Gameboy of Gore
Amityville vs House (No not the TV show the 1986 William Kat horror comedy)
Amityville vs Jason
I actually knew about the 2nd and 3rd films (never seen them though), and even the remake (I can't remember if it was the original or remake that I saw years back), but beyond that I didn't even know the other films existed. How is it even possible to make sequels to Amityville horror? If there is will and a paycheck theres a way I guess...
and this list is HILARIOUS! If some of these where actual films i'd totally watch them.
#96: It's the Amityville Horror, Charlie Brown.
The Asylum is getting on the act too. Sure- why not?!?

Amityville 101: Haunted High School
Amityville 2099: Same Characters, More Stubble
Fun fact: the DVD version of Amityville 1992 edits the year out of the title- http://www.movieposterdb.com/poster/aae858a5. History is written by whoever owns the print, apparently.
Is it bad I think some of those actually sound kinda awesome? XD
Abbott and Costello meet the Amityville Horror?
