My parent's house had ghosts, but not poltergeists! You would see something like a silhouette of a man next to your bed (which was startling, to say the least), a bunch of other stuff also. Never felt like we were in any danger thoigh! House was built in 1880 so who knows what happened there!
You should do Spielbergs first movie, Duel. Nobody does that one.
If you like comedies, watch the Grumpier Old Men series, there's two. Both are gems. Jack Lemmon, Walter Matthau, Burgess Meredith, Ann Margaret; these were huge stars in TV and movies back in the day, its 90s, but could be late 80s. People will have heard that one. Clue with Tim Curry. 80s, one of his best. Goonies is a cult classic and a Gen X anthem movie. lol There's a million. I've watched a few of your reactions from historical, so I tried to think of those of people you might know, and are well known enough. Enjoy!
You should watch The Towering Inferno.

The story behind Poltergeist is that after making Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Steven Spielberg wrote a follow up screenplay called Night Skies, a horror movie about a family in a remote farmhouse witnessing a UFO and being terrorized by aliens attacking their home, inspired by the 1955 Kelly-Hopkinsville UFO report in Kentucky. Columbia Pictures rejected the script, expecting a sequel to Close Encounters and not an alien horror movie. Steven Spielberg took plot elements from Night Skies and used them to make Poltergeist (replacing the aliens with ghosts) and E T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and some elements of Night Skies also ended up being used in Gremlins.
E.T. and Poltergeist were NOT filmed in the same neighborhood. Whoever told you that is wrong.
Heather was an awesome little actor. She was even on Happy Days once or twice!
If you're confused about Tangina's methods (first she says run to the light, then she says don't go into the light, then she says come into the light). At first she wanted Carol Anne to run to the light, but she also wanted her to stop before going into it. Once the mom was in the light, on the rope, Tangina told Carol Anne it was okay to now walk into the light, so she could get to her mom.
The remake was crap. It was like reading a badly written fanfiction. Terrible pacing, no character establishment. The son was like a Gary Stu character. It was just lackluster and rushed by you.
The remotes in this looked like they could be ultrasonic. I had an old ultrasonic TV once with a remote like that. I also had pet rats at the time. Their chitter would turn my TV on and off and switch the channels on me. My neighbor thought my place was haunted, lol
This was my first horror movie. I was 7, and from then on hooked on wanting to make special effects for horror movies (my profile pic is something I made, though not for a movie). It was also the first time I heard the American national anthem, since I'm German. I would later live in the US for a while, as a kid, and when I heard it there again, I wondered why the US had such a creepy anthem, because I associated it with this movie, lol
My favorite horror movie for me from the 80s is Return of the Living Dead. It's a cult classic and highly recommend it. The one liners dropped are excellent.
Not sure if anyone else said this, but those are real skeletons in the pool. It was cheaper to ger real ones than get fake ones.
I saw most of it in the theaters when I was 11, but my mother had a panic attack during the bathtub scene. I had to wait till it came out on HBO to finish the movie. By then most of the kids at school told me the ending.
My mom took me and my older brother to see this when it first came out. I was only 4 years old then. Mom also took us to see The Thing around the same time. And yes, you must watch An American Werewolf in London. I personally believe it has one of the best transformations ever in a movie.
one of my favorite horror movies
For building over cemeteries: my understanding is that depending on where you live, when someone is buried in a plot, it is considered a burial site for a certain amount of time (like 80 or so years), so the plot is almost like a lease, and eventually the plot is just considered “land”. So a cemetery can be built over or relocated, depending on what the local community wants.
One of my 3x great grandfathers was buried in a cemetery that eventually was relocated because there wasn’t enough room for more internments, and while they tried to move all of the burials, they sometimes miss some. The area where the cemetery once was now has houses on it, and some say the area is haunted.
On February 1, 1988, O'Rourke died following two cardiac arrests, her cause of death later being ruled as congenital stenosis of the intestine complicated by septic shock. She was only 12 years old. And actress Dominic Dunn who played the eldest daughter was murdered by her ex boyfriend at the age of 22. May they rest in peace..Xx
Try the Changeling 1980 spooky movie with George C Scott
