Poltergeist (1982): When The American Dream Turns into a Nightmare
Poltergeist (1982) is the Steven Spielberg produced and Tobe Hooper directed haunted house movie that shows how the horror genre can hit multiple layers of social commentary and still deliver chilling terror without being viewed as "preachy".
From commenting on Manifest Destiny, The American Dream, Reagan's America and White Flight, there is a literal cornucopia of meaning that you can find in this film. However, none of that has ever translated over to the sequels (Poltergeist 2 and Poltergeist 3) or the remake.
But what is it really about this film and film franchise about suburbia gone to hell that has stuck with us for over 40 years? Grab your static filled tube tv's as we venture into the world of ghosts and goblins as we review The Poltergeist Franchise.
