The Poltergeist Series


Thank goodness! A perfect example of Horror movies that can be scary without being dominated by pointless porn-scenes between a couple C-List actors who have no problem baring it all.  The story is basically the same thing we've been seeing in most other Haunting shows (aka "The Sixth Sense", "Insidious", or "The Shining"), and what I mean is the girl (who looks like an Angelic version of the Ring-nut) has special abilities that a bunch of spooky ghosts want, and they do this by turning the TV off and on, and sending questionable old men her way.  This movie does incorporate something that reminds me when to change my pants, and that's DOLLS!  It's funny because dolls aren't even the main focus in this series, but for some reason when one of the ghosts enter the little girl's room, then all the dolls heads turn... which then leads to my stomach turning, and then a good hour in the bathroom with PEOPLE magazine.

All three films are really good, and are must see's for every Horror fan.  Other than the classic first one (directed by Tobe Hopper) I found Poltergeist II to be quite enjoyable, probably because it made me want to become native... much like Kevin Costner.
