Poltergeist

Summary: This movie SUCKS
Review: Family who live in a house located over a graveyard are terrorized by a haunting force who makes life for them a living hell and kidnaps their daughter. Though the clown attack near the end is REALLY scary, this movie is mess of living dead, aliens, ghosts, storms, you name it. A mess entirely. BOO!

Summary: Poltergeist is a Classic
Review: I love all the Poltergeist movies, and the first Poltergeist was one of my favorite. You can totally tell it's a Stephen Spilberg film, and it kind of gives you the same feeling as E.T. did. It has it's scary parts, and I read somewhere that Heather O'Rourke (Carol Anne) was genuinly scared when she was filming the part where she gets sucked into the closet, Stephen Spilberg had to comfort her, and tell her that they wouldn't do the scene again. The movie is great, great acting, and great stars. You might not want to sleep with a t.v. in your room after you watch this one! Buy this movie, it's a classic!

Summary: JOBETH WILLIAMS IN SHORT SHORTS. ALWAYS A PLUS!
Review: Directed by the brilliant (and underrated) Tobe Hooper and written by the masterful Steven Spielberg, this is THE ultimate in ghost-haunting movies. The cast was perfect, the direction was tight and the writing was crisp. You could totally identify with the suburban atmosphere and I loved all the 80's insights. At one point, you notice Craig T. Nelson reading a book about the life of our "current" President, Ronald Reagan. The movie reminded me of my childhood in the 80's. Not the ghosts but the feel of their hometown. This is a horror movie that any horror nut will absolutely LOVE. It's too bad the DVD isn't the best, though. I'd like to have a Tobe Hooper or Spielberg commentary on it. Well, you can't have everything. But, you can have JoBeth Williams strutting her considerable stuff in those shorty shorts. TOTALLY HOT! OUCH!

Summary: My Favorite Movie!
Review: I first remember watching this movie when I was about 3 or 4, it came out when I was 1.....but ever since I've seen it, it's been my favorite movie of all time! I've watched it literally thousands of times. I could watch it every day of my life and I would never get sick of it. It's so freaky to put urself in the family's position, and think of what it might be like to be in their situation! It's like no other horror movie. If ur thinking about buying this movie and have never seen it before, don't worrying about getting nothing for ur $$. it's well worth it and I can garuntee u'll love it. There is not 1 person I know that doesn't like this movie. IT'S THE BEST!

Summary: "They're here!"
Review: This is a wonderful piece of horror film directed by Tobe Hooper (Texas chainsaw massacre, Salems Lot) and produced by Steven Spielberg (E.T, Jurrasic Park) A beautiful range of special effects and Tangina Barrons (The little lady with the little girl voice) is a wonderful asset to the film. Followed by 2 sequels, this is the best but if your epileptic, beware one scene near the end where there is a load of flashing light.

Summary: A classic that will never be forgotten.
Review: Directed by Steven Spieldberg in 1984 this film caused widespread shock at the power it had on the people of America at the time. The plot is excellent: Little CarolAnn Freeling (played by the late Heather O'Rourke) is abducted by dark, sinister forces through her TV. She has a connection with them that they want. JoBeth Williams and Craig T. Nelson play CarolAnn's traumtized parents with deference. Zelma Rubenstein plays the psychic who does the battle with the mysterious poltiergeist in a constant struggle between good and evil. What shocked me most with this film was how real the effects looked and how credible it was. It made me think "This could actually happen to anybody". An excellent ending which gave perfect leeway for a sequel. Again, a classic "haunted house" film that will NEVER cease in it's power to terrify.

Summary: A great supernatural thriller
Review: A typical american family's house gets invaded by ghosts that come out of the television set. Lots of suspence and entertainment that doesn't let down for a minute. Very original story and great special effects for its time. Directed by Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre).
