Amityville II and The Exorcist Compared As Horror Benchmarks

The piece argues Amityville II surpasses the original film with gruesome effects and a tense portrayal of demonic possession in a New England house. Sonny, a rebellious teen, becomes the demon host, leading to incestuous implications and escalating horror, while acknowledging gore may exceed some viewers’ comfort. The Exorcist is cited as the ultimate standard for supernatural horror.

Community Boost Expected for Historic Old Betsy Fire Truck

Venice officials report a fundraising push for the LeFrance fire truck Old Betsy has raised 1900 dollars with a city match pushing total to over 3800. The council will match up to 5000 for rebuilding the engine and body work with Nokomis Hines Body Shop offering free sandblast and Orland engine shop to perform repairs once funded. Public support grew after initial 1000 dollar pledge and letters and hearings urged more funds for Old Betsy's parade role and future events.
