Ken C @Kenneth205 Dec 21 The women got their shorts a the baby gap so it's got that going for it See more 11/12/2020 Truly a cinematic masterpiece. I was on the edge of my seat the whole movie. Everything from the casting to the editing *shefs kiss* you couldn't have made a better movie. This is definitely taking place as my top 1 favorite movie. I only give it 4.5 stars because it's not long enough, I'd watch it even if it were 3 hours long. See more 06/16/2020 Brilliant masterpiece of a film. This movie is highly disturbing, and gives me the heebie jeebies. Donna Spangler's performance throughout the entire film, is terrific. Jakob Renken proves that he is a man of many talents, adding acting to the long list that includes rapping and barbecuing (Alrighty guys, burgers and hot dogs areeee ready - Jakob Renken 2015). This movie is an 11/10 and gets a big thumbs up from respected movie critic, Jed Timage. See more 11/01/2019 Some bad movies can be fun to watch. This wasn't one of those. Even the jump scares were filmed in a way that made them not scary. I expected bad acting and there was no shortage of that. See more 10/27/2019 THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN, I recommend It 10/10, a serious movie for serious people, only a real movie person will understand it. The jump scares really made me wet the bed, the special effects are amazing and the background story of this poltergeist wanting to kill this young teen is reallllyyyyy GOOD HAH. 10/10 this cost 35million See more 10/22/2019 The term "aggressively bad" gets tossed around a lot these days. I can honestly say, in American Poltergeist's case, that "aggressively bad" isn't aggressive enough. The dialogue is so terrible that I actually cringed. (As they're walking up to the house for the first time, one of the female characters intones: "I'm having... second thoughts.") The acting is so bad that every scene feels like the actors are trying to out-terrible one another. The cast is comprised entirely of LA-type stick figure people. Despite being set in Massachusetts, the location looks nothing like the Northeast and there isn't a New England accent to be heard--even from the local cop, an archetype that is normally always paired with a Boston accent, even when it's not warranted. The plot stumbles around for about an hour before taking a sharp turn into a bizarre climax that is more outlandish than terrifying. Worst of all, the movie shows a complete lack of the sort of touching self-awareness that can--and has--picked many an otherwise average horror film off the floor. I am confident that this will be the worst horror movie of the 2010's. See more Read all reviews
