Poltergeist review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 02/11/12
Steven and Diane Freeling live in a suburb with their kids Dana, Robbie, and Carol Anne. Carol Anne witnesses something spring out from the television. Screenplay was descent with quotes from Diane – “Reach back into our past when you used to have an open mind, remember that? Now try to use that for the next couple of minutes.” Steve – “You left the bodies and you only moved the headstones!” and the popular line from Carol Anne – “They're Heeeeeeeeeeeere.” The acting and score were fantastic and the subjects of sacrificing for the family and respecting the dead were present. If only the effects were better, still it was recognized at that time by the Academy awards. Poltergeist has been emulated and copied as one of the best films of its genre.
