There’s a popular theory that the 1982 Tobe Hooper and Steven Spielberg collaboration Poltergeist was cursed, but if there was a curse in play it didn’t extend to the box office. Poltergeist was a major hit for MGM, and to this day is considered one of the best horror films of the ‘80s. A sequel followed four years later, and the strange events surrounding the production added to the curse theory – but again, the film was financially successful, so MGM wanted more.
Sadly, Poltergeist III was struck by such a major tragedy that the film was barely even finished, and when it reached theatres in a compromised form in 1988 there weren’t many movie-goers who were interested in seeing it. The tragedy, combined with low box office numbers, caused the film franchise to go dormant for nearly thirty years – so let’s dig into What the F*ck Happened to This Horror Movie.
