A beautiful home, a loving family, and a backyard full of corpses. Just another day in Reagan's America.
They're heeeere! This week on OH, THE HORROR!, Sam Pancake and Sarah Burns are taking a trip to the suburbs for the 1982 supernatural horror classic POLTERGEIST!
POLTERGEIST (1982)
Theatrical Release: June 4, 1982
Budget: $10.7 million
Directed by: Tobe Hooper
Written by: Steven Spielberg, Michael Grais & Mark Victor
Produced by: Steven Spielberg & Frank Marshall
Starring Craig T. Nelson, JoBeth Williams, Heather O'Rourke, Dominique Dunne, Oliver Robins, Beatrice Straight, and Zelda Rubinstein.
The Freeling family seems to have it all: a beautiful suburban home, three kids, and a television that apparently gets excellent reception from the other side. When strange occurrences begin disrupting their peaceful home, things quickly turn from amusing to terrifying after their youngest daughter, Carol Anne, disappears into a supernatural dimension.
With the help of paranormal investigators and a pint-sized medium named Tangina, the family must confront the terrifying forces lurking inside their home. Unfortunately, their property developer may have left out one very important detail about what was underneath it.
Join Sam and Sarah as they revisit creepy clown dolls, murderous trees, questionable burial practices, and one of the most iconic haunted houses in horror history.
