Poltergeist 2

"They're back" ! Followers of Rev. Kane, whom don't realize they've been dead for ages, are still trying to get their ghostly hands on "the angel". These entities are drawn to Carol Anne so vivaciously because they crave her life force; something they desperately want, but can no longer have. Take a second journey with the original cast of Poltergeist 1 ( Stephan, Dianne, Robbie, Tangina, and Carol Anne ) to battle the sinister evil which caused many terrifying moments just a year before. Please note that Dana ( oldest sister from pt 1 ) is NOT in this one; neither is the paranormal crew, Mr. Teague, or the tv hogging neighbors. However, you will meet Dianne's mother ( a clairvoyant and loving grandmother ), Taylor ( a mystical Indian man and warrior who has come to help the family at Tangina's request ) and the grim Rev. Kane ( the evil beast behind the family's torment ). And not to be unmentioned...the beautiful family pet, E Buzz, is still clinging to his family in this very creative sequel.

Well, when the cheerleader kills the the mother and the old man was trying to get the angel back in her body, a more of a possession movie then poltergeist. For the first I put a add out and they answered it. I was in the light with the relatives, I didn't talk to them and the possessed as big Ashton Or J popped out of his holy temple. The other guy had a gun shot womb to the back of the head. , as in other possession movies notice the starved gray face same temples, not poltergeist but possession. And the many military levels and being frozen over cause of zombies .

I love the casting in the first Poltergeist and this one picked up right after the first with almost all the same cast. Great storyline and wonderfully made.

This is the sequel to the hit movie produced by Steven Spielberg. This film does not have the power that the first had, perhaps because the production crew was not the same and, therefore, did not have the same vision. It is a year later, and the family that was terrorized by the supernatural in the first film is now living with the wife's mother. While the mother, who is clairvoyant, is alive and with them, they are safe. However, after her unfortunate death in her sleep one night, the ghosts that tormented them previously return with a vengeance. The medium that helped them before sends a Native American medicine man to help them fight the evil that has birthed much more than just restless spirits brought on by a cost-cutting real estate company.Most of the original cast returned to their roles for this installment, with the obvious exception of Dominique Dunne as the oldest daughter. The young actress was unfortunately murdered by her boyfriend shortly after the first film was released, and the screenwriters did not have the heart to replace her with another actress. There are new faces, namely Will Sampson as the medicine man, Taylor, and Julian Beck as the evil preacher, Kane. The special effects are still top-notch, and the scary sequences are just as good as the first, but the dynamics still lack a certain cohesion. The script tries to take the viewer through a world of not only spiritualism (something the first did quite effectively), but also Native American mysticism. However, it comes off as somewhat superficial in both areas.As always seems to be the case dealing with films of this subject matter, there were rumors of a curse being connected with the filming of this movie. There were reports of accidents and creepy happenings on the sets and even in the actors' homes. In fact, the problem became so pronounced that Will Sampson, who was also a full shaman to his Muscogee tribe, volunteered to stay on one set overnight to cleanse and bless it. While this reportedly did help matters, it did not stop all the unusual occurrences. Many of the actors refused to work on the tomb set (where several bones and decayed bodies were positioned in what was supposed to be a cave) when it was discovered that some bright light in the crew had somehow managed to dress the area with actual human cadavers. Julian Beck was diagnosed with stomach cancer just before filming was to begin, and his emaciated appearance due to the disease, while adding significantly to his character, caused young Heather O'Roarke (the youngest daughter) to break down into tears when she first saw him. And there were many deaths surrounding the cast and crew. Beck succumbed to his illness before the movie was even released, Sampson himself would die of kidney failure a year later, and, most tragic of all, Heather O'Roarke would pass away at the age of 12 from a misdiagnosed intestinal blockage.

I'm not going to review the movie because either you like it or you don't,which I do.The Blu-ray was everything I was hoping for.I purchase for the quality of the picture & sound.I also purchase to get as many extras on a disc that I can get.That being said,when it comes to those standards,I approve of this Blu-ray. You have audio commentary,interviews,& bts look at design & building creature effects,still galleries,trailer,& TV spots. This is a good sequel to the first movie,unlike the third one.(Blech!)Bottom line,if you are looking to build your movie library then this movie,plus the first one,are a good investment.Especially when they are cheap.Great job Shout Factory!
