"Poltergeist" has
a way of polarizing people: which moment of this seminal
spook story (why yes, that was a cemetery they
built that development on top of!) is truly the most
traumatizing? The coulrophobic will cite the clown doll
that the angry spirits bring to life, while those who feared
the monster in the closet when they were young will be
huddling behind the couch at a mere glimpse of what this
wardrobe holds. But in many ways, "Poltergeist" is
really a horror movie for parents. Your children are
not safe, not even in your own home. Bad things are coming.
In fact: "They're here."
