Poltergeist was fine for me. I had been living with a poltergeist of my own for so long, by the time it came out, that my response was "wow did they mis-name THIS movie, cause that's not at all what it's like."
Poltergeist 2? that was the scary one. Not because of the story (they built the house on graveyard, blah blah blah), but because of the villain character - Julian Beck (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0065191/), as Kane. Kane was scary as fuck, and looked enough similar to some hostile ghosts I had encountered that he freaked me right out.
