It’s time for a new episode of our video series The Black Sheep, and in this one we’re looking back at an Amityville sequel that I have always had a special fondness for, thanks to a cable viewing when I was a kid. It’s 1992’s Amityville: It’s About Time (watch it HERE), and to find out what we had to say about it, check out the video embedded above!

Directed by Hellbound: Hellraiser II‘s Tony Randel from a screenplay by Christopher DeFaria and Antonio Toro (with a nod to John G. Jones for writing the book Amityville: The Evil Escapes), Amityville: It’s About Time has the following synopsis:

Widower Jacob brings an old mantle clock back from a business trip to Amityville, N.Y. However, he and his family are unaware of the clock’s dark history. It’s not long before Jake; his girlfriend, Andrea; and his children, Lisa and Rusty, are faced with horrifying visions, animal attacks and the bending of time. The family must fight the clock’s evil power before they become possessed completely.

The film stars Stephen Macht, Shawn Weatherly, Megan Ward, Damon Martin, Jonathan Penner, Nita Talbot, and Dick Miller.
