Poltergeist

Poltergeist (1982)
Dir: Tobe Hooper

A family living in a seemingly idyllic neighbourhood are terrorised by ghosts.
A thoroughly entertaining horror film that gets better with every viewing. It's very clever in the way that it builds up atmosphere and suspense and the cast do an excellent job. Tobe Hooper, with Steven Spielberg's help, has created a wonderful movie that provides laughs, thrills and a number of extremely effective scares.
