If we are being honest, this one gave us the chills back in 1982.  After 41 years, it’s still pretty rad so we had to make this the final tribute of spooky season.  Based on a story by Steven Spielberg and directed by Tobe Hooper, this supernatural thriller was the talk of the town when it came out.  With an $11 million dollar budget and raking in $122 million dollars at the box office, it’s easy to see why.  Yes the film IS cursed but we still enjoy watching it. If you want more info about “the curse” read this article by Mental Floss.

A typical family in a quiet suburb of a normal California faces a frightening ordeal when its home is invaded by a Poltergeist. Late one night, 10-year-old Carol Anne Freeling (Heather O’Rourke) hears a voice coming from inside the television set … At first, the spirits that invade the Freeling’s home seem like playful children. But then they turn angry. And when Carol Anne is pulled from this world into another, Steve and Diane Freeling (Craig T. Nelson and JoBeth Williams–In the Land of Women) turn to an exorcist (Zelda Rubinstein) in this horror classic from director Tobe Hooper (Texas Chainsaw Massacre films) and producer and screenwriter Steven Spielberg.​
