Poltergeist!
 
What do you all think about the Poltergeist Movies?

They scared me to death as I was a Kid and this old Guy Kane, still scares me, he is really creepy.

Somebody told me that on the Poltergeist Movies is a Curse ( hope I wrote it right ) cause so many People who filmed the Movie died, is that true? I only know about the Girl that played Carol Anne, but not about anybody else, maybe somebody of you knows more.

POLTERGEIST
 
Agreed . . . the old preacher used to scare the shit out of me as well. And the "tequila worm" sequence is one of the most disturbing things ever filmed, IMO.

Don't know about a curse, but I know the chick who played the older sister in the first film was murdered by her boyfriend.


Sad stuff.

Whether or not scary, they had a knack for being freaky/creative. The half man that Coach vomits. The long legged thing in the hallway blocking the entrance to the childrens room. the braces, the moving meat, the forty year old smpoking dope... it was all very creative and interesting to watch at all times.

Plus, story wise, this was a good one. It wasn't so much about an Native American Burial Ground, but rather a Christian Burial Ground. I love that alone. It was original and it was very well done.

the third in the series didn't strike me as all that good, but I did enjoy the two ghouls in the elevator making out while they rip each other's face off. Again, very creative.

Kane died after they filmed the second movie as well. So someone has died after each film was released.

I know this may sounds strange, but itīs true, believe it or now:

I was about 14 years old, I remember as my Parents had a Party in the Hotel with the rest of our Family and me, my Cousin and a Friend of mine watched Poltergeist and after that went outside and played infront of the Hotel, then this old Guy ( he looked so much like Kane, even it ws kinda dark ) came by and I said: Hello Children, arenīt you affraid to play in the Dark? So we screaed and run inside, Iīll never forget it, also my Friend and my Cousin said that this Guy look so much like Kane
