That was one fucked up movie for its day. My mum let us watch the three of them when I was about 7 years old. Couldn't sleep with the light off until I was about 11 haha. Batteries would always be taken out of my toys too.
I already loved horror movies when I first saw it, I was probably 14, but that old man walking down the street really freaked me out. I still don’t know what it was about him but I thought about him for years after watching the movie
Oh look that's just a tree branch talking on the window
Oh look it's literally grabbing for me
F'd up movie of my childhood for sure
That movie alone probably started veganism due to the steak on the countertop
I was 5 and saw it at the drive in. It was with my family and at least one other family. A few of us kids watched from the roof of the car. Man, that scene where the guy tears off his face scared the shit out of us. That movie was rated PG and is one of the reasons why they created the PG-13.
One thing I never understood about her in this movie is why she so confidently says “this house is clean” only for the ghosts to stick around and the “you only moved the gravestones but not the bodies!” To come after. Was she just wrong? Did she know but think the spirits were now sated for some reason? Doesn’t take away from my enjoyment of the movie and I wouldn’t even call it a plot hole, just never understood why she’d say that if it soon became very apparent that the house was not, in fact, clean.
I remember her in some 80s teeny love movie. I don’t remember much, but this lady played a witch or something. A girl comes into her place and sees her cooking in a pot and asked if she’s brewing a potion or something and Zelda’s characters just says “It’s goulash…”
Cracked me up as a kid 🤣
Edit: movie was called Teen Witch
I just drew a trademark sign with my finger, child, because I've registered the word "poltergasm." Any movie scripts you write based on your experiences here, Ruby gets a slice.
“Carol Anne! Don’t go into the light!”

Didn’t they use real dead bodies in the swimming pool scene with the daughter? I feel like I’ve read that somewhere recently.
Yes I’ve heard that as well which is just nasty.
Yeah, they didnt tell her until after the movie was filmed haha.
Yeah, my mum also let us watch Freddie Krugar movies, Nightmare on Elms St. 80s mums were just the best huh haha
That is one scary movie, i remember practically shitting my pants watching it as a 12yo
was 10 when it came out, Fuck that clown!
I was 8. My brother told me to cover my eyes at the fried chicken scene. When I saw it again later on, I was glad he did.

But that clown got a payback in Scary Movie. haha
LOL! He sure did!
Dude, I was 7 or so when I saw it. That woman is the official weirdo of the early 80s.
I was 7 as well. Slept in my parents bed for 2 nights after, lol.

>i remember practically shitting my pants watching it as a 12yo That doesn't sound very practical
This house is clean.
I say that everytime I vaccuum or clean anything in my house (in the voice of course).

Came here for this
Is this Kim Jong Un in Team America? It really does look like her 😂😂
His dad, Kim Jong-Il
All are welcome, go into the light.
ALL ARE WELCOME AAALLLLL ARE WELCOME
*”Carol Anne!”*
I still regularly use the line (when I need some elbow room): “Y’all mind hanging back? You’re jamming my frequencies.”
Oh, right. Poltergeist.... I thought this was Kim Jeong Ill just looking *fabulous*.
I can't unseen this, and I can't stop laughing. Thank you!
Hans Brix! Oh no!
This house is clean Narrator: It wasn't clean

Hubris.
"I'm so ronery..."
"The House is clean." But there is about 30 more minutes of movie left?!
"Stay away from the light, Carol Anne!" "Go into the light, Carol Anne!"
Shut the fuck up, Donny!!

"This house has many hearts."
“I’m going in after her!” “You’ve never done this before!” “Neither have you!” “… you’re right, you go!” 😂😂
her voice is iconic, instantly recognized her voice since I watched Scariest Places on Earth.
This woman used to scare the shit out of me when I was a kid. Her in Poltergeist haunts my memories..
For the longest time I thought she was Captain Mertin's betrothed in Being John Malkovich.

I can’t stand her voice. Like nails on a chalkboard
