Ryan Reynolds Nude

Fairfax, OH: "'The Amityville Horror' claims to be based on the true story of the 28 days the Lutz family spent in a spectacularly low-priced home on the shore of Long Island.

It's not like the Lutzes didn't know what they were getting into. Husband George (Ryan Reynolds) does manage to ask the real estate agent why the home was on the market at such a low price.

When she tells him an entire family was shot to death in the home, the Lutzes are taken aback but, hey, as George says, 'Houses don't kill people.'

If that were the case, there wouldn't have been a 1977 best-selling book about this particular house or a 1979 hit movie about the same piece of real estate or - for that matter - this unneeded remake of that same story.

Anyway, the Lutzes move into their dream house, only to find out it's a nightmare."

Collegiate Times: "YUCK! I have seen some bad movies in my day, but if I did not have to write this review, "The Amityville Horror" probably would have been the first movie I would have walked out of. It's true that I have had the flu for the past few days, but that is not the reason I was nauseous during those 90 minutes of "horror."

The film opens with a flashback to the night of Nov. 14, 1974 with Ronald Defeo (Brendan Donaldson) sitting in his basement hearing voices telling him to (as the tagline suggests) "catch 'em and kill 'em." He subsequently loads a shotgun and proceeds to kill his entire family. Flash forward one year. George (Ryan Reynolds) and Kathy Lutz (Melissa George) are a couple searching for the American dream. Kathy and her three kids are still coping with the loss of their husband/father, and George is still trying to learn how to be a step-dad."

RYAN REYNOLDS - REYNOLDS CAR JACKED ON FIRST NIGHT IN LOS ANGELES: "Canadian actor RYAN REYNOLDS had a terrible start to life in Los Angeles - his Jeep was stolen on his first day in the city.

The VAN WILDER star, whose new horror move THE AMITYVILLE HORROR crashed in at number one in the US box office chart on Sunday (17APR05), drove the Jeep all the way from his native Vancouver to Hollywood when he was a teenager.

But, after parking his vehicle for the night outside his apartment, Reynolds woke up to find the Jeep missing the next morning.

He says, 'It got jacked. I found it a block away without any doors. I mean who steals doors?

'I spent the next few weeks driving around Hollywood in the worst storm going to auditions.'"

The New Zealand Herald: "'The Amityville Horror,' a remake of the popular 1979 haunted house flick and the only film to open in wide release over the weekend, took top honors at the North American box office without much direct competition.

The R-rated film, based on a bestseller by Jay Anson, marked the last wide release managed solely by distributors at MGM, which was acquired two weeks ago by an investor group led by Sony Corp.

It was also the first MGM-produced film since that merger to count as part of Sony Pictures' market share. The film also is a co-production with Miramax's Dimension films.

Starring newcomers Ryan Reynolds and Melissa George, 'The Amityville Horror' raked in US$23.3 million, according to box office tracker Exhibitor Relations, about the amount studio executives had expected.

Meanwhile, last week's No. 1 pick, 'Sahara,' which has been drawing a broad family audience, slipped to second place with US$13.1 million with a cumulative total of US$36.4 million. "

Ryan Reynolds Interview - Ryan Reynolds on The Amityville Horror and The Flash: "Known for his roles in comedies ("Van Wilder," "The In-Laws," the TV series "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place"), Ryan Reynolds has recently ventured into the horror genre with starring roles in "Blade: Trinity" and the 2005 remake of "The Amityville Horror." Reynolds calls "The Amityville Horror" the "greatest American haunted house story ever told" and signed on to the remake early in the process.

"The Amityville Horror" producers Andrew Form and Brad Fuller admit Reynolds wasn't the most obvious choice to star as George Lutz in the MGM remake of the 1979 horror film, based on the true story of George and Kathy Lutz. But Fuller says the movie needed someone with a personality and presence like Reynolds has to help pull off the progression from good guy to someone much darker. "Ryan Reynolds is a guy who we had heard how great his performance was in 'Blade' and we were lucky enough to go into the editing room and see that before it came out. We just felt like if you're going to have a guy who starts out as a great guy and then who turns and goes insane, you can't have a guy who you expect to go insane. It's better to have a guy who's a great guy. Once we saw that Ryan could actually be that person who goes insane, it's a perfect casting idea. I think that it's really important to cast someone who people don't expect to see in the role. He was the only guy that we ever considered for the role," explained producer Fuller."

Coming Soon! - Latest News: "The Amityville Horror casts Ryan Reynolds in a role like you have never seen him before. The MGM terror is a remake of the 1979 film which is based on the true story of George (Ryan Reynolds) and Kathy Lutz (Melissa George) who moved into what they thought was their dream home in Amityville, Long Island. However, unexplainable and eerie occurrences happen in the house, which forces them to move out twenty-eight days later.

'I wanted to tell the story the best I could. I know that something awful happened in that house. We know 6 murders took place in that house,' Reynolds said.

The six murders he is referring to happened a year before the Lutz family moved in. Ronald DeFeo Jr. shot and killed his parents and four siblings in the middle of the night. He claimed haunting voices in the house told him to gruesomely murder his family.

While nobody can dispute the murders took places, some do question the evil presence and disturbing voices that drove DeFeo to kill and the Lutz family to flee from their home."

Moviehole.net - Interview : Ryan Reynolds: "Charismatic comic actor Ryan Reynolds may be best known to television viewers for his role in the popular 'Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place', though if it weren't for his close friend Chris Martin, Reynolds' star may have not risen quite as smoothly as it did.

Born in October of 1976, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, to a food wholesaler father and a retail store saleswoman, Reynolds harboured an affection for acting from his early youth, and was undeterred after failing a drama class at the age of 12. Making his television debut two years later on the Nickelodeon show Fifteen, the aspiring youngster crossed the border and relocated to Florida for the taping of the show, moving back to Vancouver soon after production ceased in 1991.
