Do you believe in ghost? Speaking from personal experience I'd say that ghost is a something which just could watch in a movie.Based on some researches,I often find that children have a special sense to perceive this paranormal phenomena,which,to be honest,makes me anxiety if a child will comment me about any ghost vision.Fortunately,only Carol Anne can manage to watch it through her TV.....
Poltergeist is an American supernatural and horror film.It was directed by Tobe Hooper and written By Steven Spielberg in 1982.It's fair to point out that Spielberg was working in E.T when this plot came up,for that reason Hooper turned out the main director due to his last successful works which was far reaching effects in Hollywood.I must make clear that Spielberg shared directing work with him,although he went uncredited.The movie was an absolutely success,not only was nominated it for three Academy Awards,but also became a one of the best horror film in the cineme history.It is worth saying that Poltergeist 2 :The Other Side (1986),Poltergeist 3 (1988) and lately a remake didn't reach the level hoped for.
The Freeling family seems to have a quiet life in California.Steven (Craig T.Nelson) and Diane (JoBeth Williams) live with their three children Dana (Dominique Dunne),Robbie (Oliver Robins) and,over all,Carol Anne (Heather O'Rourke).One night,Carol Anne wakes up and start a conversation with the television.The following night,Carol Anne goes through a similar situation,but this time a ghostly white hand appears from the The TV.This horror situation gets up all family due to an strong noise and in that moment Carol Anne advertises 'They're here'.After this night,this house and this family will be never the same.
In essence,I highly recommend this film for the superb cinematography and production design.But above all because of the masterful depiction of what happens to the young Carol Anne inn what is possible becomes paranormal.
....It knows what scares you.
Don't forget,I'm an English student.I try to avoid it but some mistakes are unavoidable.
