Rated 4 out of 5 stars
good horror starter movie for a preteen
I purchased this for a preteen for an intro to horror movies. I knew of the movie for its an old time favorite of many. It worked out great and so was the price of the DVD.
This is one of the greatest horror films in the history of cinema. While not the scariest film of all time, it has a great story and special effects that still holds up today for the most part, and it's just downright creepy.
The film itself is definitely a great print of the film. It looks and sounds better than ever.
Nevertheless, I will stress once again that this is absolutely the best edition available for the film, so if you love the movie, it is still worth the purchase.
One of the best aspects of Poltergeist is that it is actually rated PG. Sure, there are some real scary scenes and one that is a little gory. But it is the type of movie you can watch around Halloween time with the entire family. I hadn’t seen it for years so buying the Blu Ray took me way back. The film lost none of its luster watching it now compared to then.
