POLTERGEIST

Poltergeist activity tends to occur around a single person called an agent or a focus. Focuses are often, but not limited to, pubescent children.[1] Poltergeist phenomena have been reported around the world throughout history. Before the nineteenth century, these occurrences were blamed on the Devil, demons and witches.[2] Poltergeist est un film amricain ralis par Tobe Hooper en 1982, et dont les acteurs principaux sont Craig T. Alors que ses membres vivent une vie tout fait banale, d'tranges venements ont lieu dans leur maison.[3]

Poltergeist's powers wrecked the Arena�s props and made the debris fall on the Gladiators. Flynn captured Poltergeist and threatened to wring his neck if Dazzler, Beast, and Rocker didn't surrender to him.[4] Poltergeist is one of my al time favorite movies. So when I read that they are going to remake it I was a little sick.[5] Poltergeist offers thrills, shrieks, and creeps galore, all while maintaining a "PG" rating, though it would probably be a "PG-13" these days; that rating didn't exist in 1982.

POLTERGEIST has been one of my favorite haunted house movies for as long as I can remember and the film remains as potent today as it was, when it was first released. The reason POLTERGEIST remains effective is the fact that its story is grounded in middle class normalcy, with the supernatural elements layered on top.[7] Poltergeist 's most effective paranormal scenes seem taken straight from real-believer reports, but when the movie strays from common haunting lore and indulges in dramatic hyperbole, the tension gives way to silliness. It almost feels as if the film makers themselves believe in ghosts, but don't believe that ghosts alone can earn respectable box office.[8] Poltergeist did not offer me that information. [9]

Poltergeist activity, with its connection to unresolved stress, appears to be a rare form of stress relief. Instead of the stress releasing itself in "normal" ways, the agent unconsciously "blows off steam" with the PK activity.[10] Poltergeist 3 seemed but a sad attempt to cash in on the Poltergeist name. It lacked most of the original characters and most of the original creativity and special affects that made the first two movies into the fan favorites.[11] Poltergeist II took the correct path and achieved box office success by continuing and providing back-story to the events of the 1982 classic. It also helped to bring back horror's most famous family "The Freelings" while also introducing fans to the most infamous villain in horror history "Reverend Kane" brilliantly portrayed by Julian Beck who sadly died shortly after it's release.[12]

Poltergeist disturbances have occurred globally since ancient times. Cornell did a computer analysis of those cases collected since 1800 to that time.[13] Poltergeists are ghosts that make noises or move objects through the air. Some scientists and skeptics propose that all poltergeist activity that they can't trace to fraud has a physical explanation such as static electricity , electromagnetic fields, ultra- , and infrasound and/or ionized air.[14] Poltergeists usually begin and end abruptly. The typical incident can last for several hours or several years.[15]

Spielberg once called 'Poltergeist' the dark side of his own 'E.T.', and that is perfectly apt. [30] Spielberg was only credited with producing the film, as he was forbidden by contract with Universal not to direct anything the same year he was working on E.T. It's been a subject of long debate how much control Spielberg actually handed to the credited director Tobe Hooper, or if he was a name only by the end of the process.[31]
