Completely agree with you. But for me, ALL the actors and actresses in the film are well cast. Then again, it's Spielberg. He never misses in terms of casting. What you feel about the mother, I feel about Craig T. Nelson, the dad. I identify a lot with him. The way he treats his family, the way he rushes into the in-ground pool without thinking to look for his daughter. The way he greets his son when he enters the bedroom, etc... Jobeth Williams and Craig T. Nelson bring so much credibility to this film. This is to Spielberg's credit.

Yes … as a kid it was complete trauma … which lessened as I grew and I now love this movie … but it took on a whole new dimension of terror when I became a father … when I look at my son, and think of a situation like this, it’s terrifying. To think of him trapped, myself powerless to help him and listening to his terror, trapped in a world his young mind cannot comprehend … that’s a whole new level of fear and emotion! 👍🏼

The canary dying is symbolic. Miners used to bring a canary with them when they went digging in case of gas leaks, because they were far more sensitive to it. If you looked at the canary and saw it had died, that meant there was a gas leak and you needed to get out ASAP. In this movie, the canary dying is basically a warning to the family to get out now.

This movie was so terrifying because it was every childhood nightmare brought to life. And that's what I loved about it. You learned what every character feared and then their fear came to life on screen. The only scene that seemed out of place was the researcher who pulled his face apart in the mirror. It was completely out of step with the rest of the movie. Years later I had the great pleasure of meeting Zelda Rubinstein, who played the medium, Tangina. She was as sweet as could be.

The Exorcist is THE scariest movie I have ever seen. It seriously screwed me up mentally. I saw it when I was very young, over 40 years ago. I have never been able to watch it again. Terrifying.

What really sells this movie and the threats is the family. They are so natural/believable. Most drama/romance movies fail to achieve this level of credibility.

In real life the oldest daughter was murdered, the youngest dies of congenital stenosis and the boy was almost strangled to death on set by the mechanical clown. Leading to people believing the movie was cursed because they used real skeletons in the pool scene.

The little girl who played Carol Ann died when she was 12 years old. Her name is Heather O'Rourke. She had some kind of intestine disease. She caught this disease by drinking some well water at her family's home. I was so sad when I heard of her passing.

Nominated for Best Original Score by Oscar-Winning composer Jerry Goldsmith. In his career, he won one Oscar for "The Omen" (1976). He has a total of 18 nominations. One of the greatest and most innovative film composers of all time.

I love how into you guys get. Really satisfying to see my old favorite scary movies still have an impact on new audiences today. Asia's face sometimes is so satisfying. Or hiding with the blanket, so good. And then I know the movie is def a banger when she pulls out the "Babe, I don't think I can watch this.."

I saw this in the theatre. I got there 10-15 minutes before showtime and was waiting in the lobby for the movie to end. There was almost non stop screaming coming from inside. To steal a line from another movie "Asia, you're gonna need a bigger blanket." If you haven't already I recommend watching Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock.

One thing about this movie is that it has a very warm heart. The creature design was not too gross (except for the entranceway across dimensions). The people were loving towards each other, and there were many comical moments too. It was made, I think for a young audience ready to be thrilled by the scares, not cringing at real meanness. Your reactions are adorable, with trademark blankie, and lovin' on each other. Nice to see this!

I watched this at the neighbor’s house with a group of girls when I was 12. My parents heard all the screaming from next door. 😂

The ghosts clearly had a strategy for getting the girl. It took me a long time to realize that. Think about it: they snatched her up while the rest of the family focused on getting the boy away from the tree.

As the focus pulls back to run down the doors corridors, she sprints down for her kids and is lifted off her feet as the door opens!!! Omg one of the most dramatical effects I've ever seen!. The desperation of a mother, and power from another world.....MY FAVOURITE MOVIE!!!

Heather O'Rourke plays Carol Ann, she unfortunately passed away in 1988. O'Rourke's cause of death was ruled congenital stenosis of the intestine complicated by septic shock. She went into cardiac arrest and passed away. She didn't even get to see Poltergeist 3 which was her last movie before passing away.

Oh Asia, you and your blanket! 😂 There is a Poltergeist 2, which explains a bit more as to why Carol Ann is a target. There is more to this story. So if you decide to watch the 2nd one, then you’ll see. Thank you, I really enjoyed this reaction. Reminded me of when I first watched it. 💕

This continues for about a minute more, after which the sweet sounding "la la la's " dissolve into childish, maniacal laughter - as if ghost children are perhaps laughing at the folly of the Freeling family . . . This goes on for over 20 seconds until the sound fades and the screen goes to black . . . This movie doesn't let go, literally until the last possible second!

Best quote - "Give me back my blanket".

I grew up in the era when TVs were huge boxes and were actually part of the furniture in the living room/den. And late at night, after the late late show was over or after Johnny Carson was over, they would play the national anthem & the TV would literally go off for the night. There was no more TV for the rest of the evening. Hard to believe when you consider all the media we have available today.

Amazing masterpiece Poltergeist directed by Tobe Hooper produced by Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall starring Craig T. Nelson, JoBeth Williams, Beatrice Straight, Heather O'Rourke, Dominique Dunne and music score by Jerry Goldsmith. The line "They're here" was ranked number 69 in the list of the American Film Institute (AFI) 100 Years.....100 Movie Quotes. This film has two sequels and one remake but the original is the best thank you Asia and BJ great reaction guys. Asia with the hands in the face and blanket oh my god😱😱😱😱

I do not watch horror movies but this movie is fantastic. The love of the Mom for her daughter to go get her, the rebirth made me so emotional.

OMG. I wanted to see this movie so bad I saved my babysitting money and did other jobs to pay for tickets and gas and got my mom to drive me to the only theater that was open in the summer near us. It was a drive-in and it was 100 miles away from our little Dakota town. I was only 14 and for my mom to take an evening and spend almost 4 hours on the road just to take me to a movie is pretty amazing. I have 3 siblings and a step-dad and this was just the two of us. One of my most favorite memories.

@@msdarby515 It was awesome to see this movie at the drive in. You did a great job earning your trip and your Mom is amazing for taking you. What an amazing memory for your Mom and you. Thank you for sharing and stay safe and healthy❤

"I bet a lot of people had Star Wars covers back then."...I had those EXACT covers. This movie terrified me as a kid. I slept with my closet open for at least a year.

I was one when this came out and distinctly remember watching this as a child….this movie was BIG in the 80’s

As mentioned before, this movie series did seem to be cursed... The oldest daughter did not return for the 1st sequel, because she (The actress, Dominique Dunne) had been murdered (Strangled) by her jealous ex boyfriend shortly after the first movie came out... then the actress (Heather O'Rourke) who played the liittle blonde girl, Carol Ann, died of a misdiagnosed intestinal blockage at age 12., while the third movie was being made... Combine that with two other cast deaths in the 6 year gap between the first and last films... Sounds like a curse to me.

that's what they said she died from - some in Hollywood have a very different story and some first hand accounts.

There's also the claims that they used REAL human remains as props

@@HorribleGamingFun Yeah in the second movie, the bodies used for props were real cadavers they got from some medical college. The stage where the cave scene was shot had all sorts of electrical malfunctions and stuff. Ironically, the guy who played the Indian Shaman guy in the movie was a real Shaman and he preformed some Native American exorcism-thing one night (with the studio's permission) and whatever he did somehow fixed it, there were no more production problems after that....at least not for that movie.

I remember watching this at a drive-in the second time in the 80's. Guy in the next car did something to scare his girlfriend during one of the scary parts. She screamed and started a chain reaction if screams that went around the whole drive-in. 🤣

This movie came out on HBO when I was five and I remember peeking out from under the blanket when I was supposed to be asleep on the couch to watch it. I swear it scarred me for life because it was years before TV static didn’t totally creep me out. Maybe I should’ve listened when my mom told me to turn over and go to sleep. This video is the first time I’m seeing it since I was little and I’m glad I watched this reaction because the movie that was built around the scary parts is actually really good. The urban legend is that this movie franchise (there were 3) is cursed because a few actors had accidents on set or even died after these movies were made. Heather O’Routke, the little girl who played Carol Anne, died of septic shock when she was 12.

1982 was a fun summer with both Poltergeist AND E.T. in the theaters. Steven Spielberg was in the groove! 😀

Your reaction is top notch. It’s like waiting for a new movie to come out dinner with y’all. I love your reaction I cannot wait until y’all do more. Thank you for your reaction I appreciate it.

Hey, wow twomuchgame!! Thanks

I was 6 years old when this movie came out and I remember refusing to go to the movie with my mom and my brother because my mom had already tricked me into going to see Creepshow with my dad talking about, ''It's a comic book movie." I was scared to death. Now, Poltergeist is one of my all time favs. It's my rainy day go to movie. They can keep that clown though. I'm legit terrified of clowns.

"THE TREE WAS A PERSON!" is the best quote from this movie

I love watching you guys watch movies that I saw long ago in the theater. This one made me do several back flips. In 1982 I saw this this in the theater. I started in the front row and ended up in the back row. Probably what made me jump the most where the kitchen chairs. You guys are great. If you're interested I recommend one of my favorite movies of all time. Cool Hand Luke

Asia, you called it with the tree. Great job!!! I was a child when I saw a part of this movie and it scared me to death!

You two are so much fun. And don't forget there's a metaphorical narrative moment when Carol Anne respectfully buries Tweety and then the pool workers inadvertently dig Tweety's grave back up so...

Cannot believe this movie was rated PG. Such a fantastic movie.

Great reaction. You've right about the youngest girl. She was born in the house. Some interesting trivia, both of the actors that played the daughters, died within a few years after making this movie. Also, Grant and Lincoln Parks in Chicago, were originally civil war cemeteries. They still dig up remains occasionally.

He he heeee...at 39:32 BJ stole Asia's blanket and at 39:55 she grabs for it , it's not there and she's like "Ba Babe?! Gimmi my blanket!!" LOL 😂 You two crack me up ❤ Thanks for sharing with us, loved your reactions. (don't forget to check out the movie "The Thing" staring Kurt Russell)

😂 When you were first talking about the clown, I kept saying out loud, “y’all don’t even KNOW about that damn clown!” LOL! I really enjoyed this! And, BJ, I saw you steal that blanket cuz you were scared! LOL 😂

The greatest Steven Spielberg film that wasn't directed by Steven Spielberg. Great reaction! 👍🏿

Thanks James! Appreciate you always watching with us

I was 10 when this came on HBO in 1980. One of the best all time scary ghost movies period. Thnks for reviewing! 😉

Spielberg understood how to incorporate elements of horror into a more general audience type of film. His films aren't relentless but the scary moments are properly scary.

The reason I've been terrified of clowns my whole life.

I saw this movie as a matinee so many times when it came out. You two were hilarious to watch this with, Asia was in rare form I don’t think I’ve ever seen her cover her whole head before! 😂😂😂

One of the best lines was when the big sister was freaking out and wouldn't get into the car and her little brother said, "Daddy, drive away!"😂 No time to mess around. Only the quick survive. So leave my big sis,lol.😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just saw this in my recommendations and already subscribed. This movie was one of my favorites growing up and still is. Love the family dynamics in it and practical effects. The sequel is good too. 👻 Unfortunately, the little girl died at a young age. I'm sure other comments have mentioned the "curse" associated with this movie. I think she just had people around her with bad intentions. The older sister also died tragically too. RIP Heather O'Rourke and Dominique Dunne. 💔

@@amymoquin8636 Yesss I remember learning about that as a kid. They didn't even tell the actress either. Awful lol.

This is definitely a blanket movie! The practical effects are pretty awesome. The father (Craig T. Nelson) also did the voice of Mr. Incredible in The Incredibles.

"THEY'RE HEEERE" went down in history as 2 of the creepiest words combined. 😂

I've watched almost all of their reaction videos, and one of the best things about them is no heady analysis, no trying to figure out what the storyteller is trying to convey, no indepth analysis, just plain ol' along for the ride the movie wants to take you on. Many reacters always analyze the movie they are watching to make it sound like they know what they're talking about. Hello, those of us watching you HAVE ALREADY SEEN THE MOVIE. BJ and Asia are awesome that they are here just to enjoy a movie, no commentary or documentaries. Just sit back, and enjoy the movie for what it is. They react the same way most of us would react when we don't expect anything from the movie. I thorougly enjoyed watching them. Keep up the great work.
