Jenn and Joe kick off a month of Amityville texts with the original 1979 film by Stuart Rosenberg, based on the novel by Jay Anson. We talk about how supernatural true crime differs from other forms, the film's status as the grandfather of all haunted house movies, Brolin and Kidder's wardrobe, and the concept of "economic horror."
