| 0:00.0 | Hey, this is Alex, and I started a new podcast. |
| 0:04.5 | This podcast is not going to affect hyperfixed in any way, but I just wanted to let everybody know that it was here and give you the opportunity to check it out. |
| 0:12.1 | So very, very quickly. |
| 0:14.1 | In 1974, there was a series of murders that took place in Amityville, New York, and the following year, a family moved into the house where the |
| 0:21.1 | murders took place and claimed it was haunted. That spawned a couple of very successful movies, |
| 0:26.4 | followed by many more less successful movies, and then around 2010, Asylum Pictures, which is |
| 0:32.6 | the movie studio that made, like, Sharknado, realized the name Amityville isn't copyrightable and made their own |
| 0:38.6 | Amityville movie. That kind of opened some very strange floodgates because as of this writing, |
| 0:44.0 | there are now 92 Amityville movies. Some are standard horror, and some have titles like |
| 0:50.1 | Amityville Outhouse, Amityville in Space, Amityville job interview, Amityville Death |
| 0:55.4 | Toilet, and coming full circle, the 92nd Amityville movie, which premiered on streaming last |

| 1:08.6 | punishment, decided to watch every single |
| 1:11.2 | Amityville movie and chronicle it for a podcast we're calling Amityvillevilleville. |
| 1:16.0 | This episode is our watch-through of Amityville 3, which features a very young Meg Ryan, and |
| 1:21.1 | also Lori Laughlin, the lady from Full House who went to prison. And you can watch along |
| 1:25.6 | with us by searching Amityvilleville, wherever you find podcasts. If you want to watch this particular movie, it's on Tooby. And you can watch along with us by searching Amityvilleville wherever you find podcasts. |
| 1:28.5 | If you want to watch this particular movie, it's on Tooby. And we'll be back at you with another |
| 1:32.7 | hyper-fixed episode next week. In the meantime, enjoy this episode of Amityvilleville. I am Alex Goldman. I am Caroline Thompson, and we are back at it again. |
| 2:05.9 | Ready to see what that cookie Amityville House has in store for us today. You don't sound convinced that you're Caroline Thompson. You sounded a little doubtful of it. |
| 2:13.4 | I mean, I'm honestly not. I wake up every morning and look in the mirror and wonder, who is she? |
