I watched this when I was a kid...loved it then...watched it like 100 times... and still have a hard time turning the channel when it's on. I guess I just have a history with this one. Sorry you didn't enjoy it as much.

I found it a very good, but not too frightening, horror film. I would rate it twice the number you gave it... still, this is a pretty good review, great job

Ok,while I may not agree,you cant deny that this line is,was,and always will be one of the freakiest lines in cinema history,"There heeere".That line is freaky as hell.Good review none the lest.

i actually did like that scene, like i said "maybe a couple of alright horror scenes", but one or two scenes is not enough for me to agree that the wole movie was solid because i just dont think it was!

Great review Steve!! I have to admit you are absolutely right. I think people regard this a classic horror film is because of one word "Speilberg". You tell em Steve!!!

cheers! im glad someone actually agrees, and yea that could be the reason we also have our legendery director of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacare" Tobe Hooper working on this film, but that still doesnt mean poltergiest is good lol.

This was very clever but not great. It had a good story and kept you in suspense. Certainly not rotten. I appreciate your point of view though. Nice work......

yea to be honest it was kinda clever, i just think it could have been done so much better. I moved the rating up to 50 because it was a good try but it didnt impress me too much.

.I too disagree. I saw this June 4, 1982 and it scared the shit out of me. Especially that damn clown. The effectiveness of the movie is character ( we like and are involved with the Freeling family's plight to save Carol Ann ) and the setting of the movie in a normal suburban home. Not a typical haunted house. Brings the horror down to earth, makes it more palatable to audiences....

It isnt the greatest horror ever, but it isnt worth 40% it deserves a minimum of 60%

yea i thought i was gonna love it, but i just wasnt impressed by it i thought it was mad corny lol. But i think i might aswell move the rating up to 50 becuase the story actually was kinda clever and it was a good try but i didnt enjoy enough to give it a fresh!

I saw the whole trilogy a few months ago and now they seem pretty stupid and not scary at all, but watching them as a kid I was so scared!!! Zelda Rubinstein as Tangina Barrons was one of the reasons I wanted to see them again!!! I agree with your rating since, for me, it's effect has faded away and is one of those horror films that have an expiration date ;) Great review ;)
