Spielberg's hands are all over this. Thankfully barrels right past the standard cliche denial of the supernatural stage, something I was dreading sitting through again, and just goes crazy as soon as it can. The actual plot is a bit too on the simple side, but there's enough creepy and memorable scenes to hold you interest the entire time.

Maybe it hasn't aged into a super scary movie, but its still entertaining with a great script that balances the humor and the creepy moments well. Tobe Hooper is great at getting all his actors to scream like the ghosts are real, which really adds to the chaos. All the paranormal experts were great but I do wish we got a little more character development from the family.

I’m convinced Zelda is evil. Some good practical effects, but it’s more of a family horror than actually scary.

Just too many early 80s cliches and too lazy of a plot to allow for a suspension of disbelief. Otherwise, it is a classic.

That clown was Chekov's gun. Could have watched a whole film about the family next door with their old man chomping on a big plate of beans. There's a scene where Craig T. Nelson says his wife is 32 and they have a 16-year old daughter that made me raise precisely one eyebrow.

Cozy horror movie at its best. Nice feeling and wonderful effects. It really feels like Spielberg is more behind the camera, than just as a producer.
