Look What's Happened to Rosemary's Baby (1976)

AKA: Rosemary's Baby Part II

Owing more to The Omen than Rosemary's Baby, Patty Duke inherits the role from Mia Farrow, while Ruth Gordon reprises her role as Mrs. Castevet. Adrian/Andrew, the former titular baby, is now a young boy. Rosemary has been plotting her escape for years when she finally seizes on an opportunity; meanwhile, the coven sets out in pursuit and closes in on them. 

I know it's a movie about Satan, but this movie was God awful. It has "made for television" written all over it. Bad acting, melodramatic score, shoddy special effects and poor writing/plotting. The story is told in three parts, separated by time period, as we follow Adrian as a young man and finally an adult (oddly enough, this outline would also mirror The Omen series of films).

Amityville IV: The Evil Escapes (1989)

As a teenager I had an Amity IV poster on my wall. I’d not seen the film but I liked the creepiness and had learned to equate organised religion with inherent evil, which is what the blackened priest seemed to imply. If I’d known how bad the movie was I’d probably have taken it down. That’s a crap story, you say, but it’s still better than what the film delivered.
The banging doors and bleeding walls promised much, but it went lamp shaped, literally. The evil is a possessed standing lamp. Hardly terrifying.
There are some laughs to be had at the sheer ridiculousness, though. The kid with the chainsaw deserves a comedy award.
