Poltergeist 3 [DVD]

When i was younger, i regulary used to watch this film on VHS. I remember i liked it very much then, but i can`t
say the same thing now. I remember i used to be frightened by this film, but not now.

It was mostly Kane that frightened me before. Some of specials effects don`t look so good now, but for their
time they was state-of-the-art special effects. I like the keyboard music in the film. Pity i didn`t like it as
much as i used to.

Picture Quality: 5/5

Wow, i was impressed by the quality. I think everything looks razor sharp and very detailed. I was very
suprised by the picture quality. I expected it to look far worse than this, so i was very happy with it.
I think the colours also look good. I rarely give films top score, but in this case, i think it deserves it.

They used some minor DNR, but i didn`t notice any of the typical artifacts or smearing as you usualy see when DNR has been used. So, i am glad it was only used as little as possible. Even though it was used, you can still see all the details.

Audio Quality: 4/5

Hm, i was less impressed by the DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, but still it`s quite good, it just don`t have the reference quality as the picture quality does. The dialog was too low and felt a little thin, and each time a there was a dialog scene, i had to turn up
the volume. This get`s very annoying after a while. The sound effects are a different matter. Most of them was
mixed too loud. I had to lower the volume nearly each time we saw Kane.

Apart from the mentioned things, i was happy with this surround remix. The Rear speakers are used a lot to
good effect from the many various ambience effects. Of course the music are also used much. There was so
many different effects used coming out the rears, that i don`t remember them all, but i can mention the ones i
still remember.

These effects did i hear in the rears: thunder, footsteps, voices, echoes and the wind. I believe my subwoofer
was used occasionally. If just those sound effects and the dialog was mixed better, i would have given it a
higher score. Too bad.

FIlm: 3.5/5
Overall: 4/5

this film in the worst of all three truly terrible and poorly made, it is nothing like 1 and 2 were there is a related story back to back this completely different with different actors apart from the girl who has grown to be a terrible actress RIP and respect but there was a reason why the original cast were missing? because there film was a joke and im not surprised that they turned the job offer down!

i think one star is over rating it to be fair, the film from start to finish is a joke and there isnt any reason to believe that there was a 1st and 2nd film as there was no story from the previous thrillers, bottom line this have killed the trilogy of an all time movie.....hence the first making £300million box office to this making £327,000

THIS IS A FILM THAT'S BEST FORGOTTEN!

It's been a long time i'm looking for this dvd and thanks to amazon it's now in my collection. Indeed, this movie isn't the best of the saga POLTERGEIST but it's still a good movie.
