Format:DVD
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.

Format:Blu-ray
The Poltergeist films are classics. Heather's performance still gives me the chills. The movies have certainly stood the test of time. I don't know what it is taking so long for the 2nd and 3rd movies to come out on blu ray in the UK.
A tip for fans - both Poltergeist 2 and 3 are available to order on region B blu ray from amazon.de at a very good price!

Format:Blu-ray
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

Awful, but with some mitigation.
First of all, I will say that Poltergeist III is a pretty awful movie. There are reasons why it's so bad, but most of these were true well before production started. Read more

Rest in peace Heather
Heather O' Rourke's final film and it could have been special had it not been for the occasionally dire acting and dialogue. Read more

All smoke and mirrors
The Director of this film seemed to think there are 3 key elements to making a scary film:
