7/10
They're here....

Warning: Spoilers
I watched ''Poltergeist'''yesterday because my dad and my friend were telling me that it was a horror classic, and even not being scared, the movie give us a nice time. The only thing I find more bizarre then the movie, is the fact that real skeletons were used in this movie.

I am surprise how Steven Spielberg worked on both productions of this movie and E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, at the same time.

It is so sad to see that such a beautiful,talented and intelligent girl as Heather O'Rourke,(the girl who played Carol Anne) died by cardiopulmonary at such a young age of 12. (Not to mention Dominique Dunne, who plays Dana Freeling, that was killed by her boyfriend with only 16 years old)And if Spielberg wasn't paying attention to the actor Oliver Robbins in the set, in the scene where he is strangled by the clown's arms, we could had three deaths instead of two.

An ordinary family has their lives turned upside down when strange events starts to happen in their house. Carol Anne, the youngest of the children, become connected to the spirits by the television. What looks only strange, starts to become bizarre when Carol Anne disappears with the ghosts and terrible events starts to happen in their house.

Ps: Since Spielberg and George Lucas are friends, you can see a lot of references to Star Wars in this movie in Robbie's toys.
