My Review-
I thought that the sequel to the first Poltergeist would be really good since I LOVE the first one and it is my second favorite horror movie and it was from Spielberg. However this one was just downright disappointing. This did not live up to the first ones potential and in my opinion should not have been made. I think whoever wrote it just wanted to make money off the first one or just rushed it and threw a storyline together that in way may no sense at times. One of the best scenes of the movie was when Craig T. Nelson's character became possessed and went a little crazy, other than that the movie was boring at times and did not have that many scares as the first movie did. The effects were great for the movie but that was really about it and nothing else, at times I did enjoy the movie and other times I just wanted it to end. I would say skip this movie.
