^ Well, all of that sounds like a very strange movie. Probably one of those arthouse sorts?
The last one I watched was a bit more commercial…
Poltergeist II - The Other Side (1986)
Yes I’ve watched another horror movie and yes I’m aware I might have a problem but I like them and, frankly, it’s none of your business so let’s move on shall we? The movie gets back nearly all the original cast (Dominique Dunne, the actress who played the eldest daughter sadly passed away, to put it mildly, before the sequel was greenlit). The story tries to retcon certain things in a way that makes it seem like it’s an expansion of events but if you think about them, they just don’t make sense. But it’s a fun(ish) story and the creepy old dude in the hat is still as scary to me now as he was when I was ten! There’s a couple of nice touches and funny lines but there’s not much here the original (a bona-fide classic in my book) didn’t do better. Ultimately, it just doesn’t have any real charm to it. Easily missable.
I give it 2 non-politically correct wrathful Indian spirits out of 5.
