Poltergeist is one of the scariest I've even seen, and I remember thinking how surprised I was that it wasn't even rated R. Heh. It was also awful the second time I saw it because I knew what to be afraid of. Maybe I won't see it again, because I'd be disappointed if it really didn't hold up.

In high school I used to watch horror movies on cable after everyone else was in bed. Getting down the hall to my bedroom past the study with THE OPEN SHADES almost did me in every time. And then one day my mom suggested I close the door before I turned on the TV, and I realized if I did that, I would miss out on half the fun of my movie routine.
