Amityville 3D (1983)

Reporter John Baxter works for a magazine that debunks charlatans with claims of supernatural events. He and his photographer unmask a group who holds phony seances in the Amityville house. Then John decides to buy the home since it's such a bargain.

Once his ex-wife discovers the history of the house, she forbids their daughter to go there. Of course, the daughter and her friends head out to the house where they hold a seance to see if the place is really haunted. The ouija board goes crazy and tragedy ensues when the kids head out onto the lake for a boat ride. Baxter still has no faith in the supernatural even though his wife is acting kooky and the kids are spooked.

The movie ends with a battle against the demon who lives in the water tunnel to hell in the basement. This was made in 3D, although I did not watch it in 3D. But there are things flying at the screen throughout the film - insects, microphones, frisbees, glass, ice, a pole, and a swordfish on the wall, just to name some of the stuff that gets tossed the viewers way.
