A couple of weekend's ago - it was my turn to pick the family night movie...and I picked 1982's POLTERGEIST.

WHAT'S THE MOVIE ABOUT?
Right off the bat...y'all know this is a classic. Right? If you haven't seen this movie - you're missing out! But here we go...
California family - living the good life. All of a sudden - the family starts experiencing weird paranormal things...they start off fun and playful (don't they always)...and then...ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE! Their daughter Caroline is kidnapped by an evil spirit, demon - something with serious power. Unable to save their daughter on their own - they turn to a parapsychologist and her team for help. But, they eventually realize they need extra help and turn to a super psychic named Tangina!

WHAT DID WE THINK OF THE MOVIE?
Well. The good news is...both my boys stayed and watched it from start to finish...even my 10yo. See, my 10yo isn't a huge horror, scary movie fan. He's more into action movies but since he's a fan of the TV shows, Ghost Adventures and Paranormal Caught on Tape - I figured he would like this. As for my 7yo...dude's a horror, scary movie fan. I knew I wouldn't have any issues from him. 😂
As for me - this is a classic. One of my favorite movies of all time. I must have watched this a million times. For an 80's movie - the effects were ahead of it's time. Really good stuff. I would watch this movie another million times and I'm glad I got to watch it with my boys. 🥳
I did ask them to give me a grade on the movie.
My 7yo gave it a A+ and my 10yo gave it a A.
Not too shabby, huh?
