Poltergeist (1982 Film)
''Poltergeist'' is a 1982 American supernatural horror film directed by Tobe Hooper and written by Steven Spielberg, Michael Grais and Mark Victor from a story by Spielberg. It stars JoBeth Williams, Craig T. Nelson and Beatrice Straight, and was produced by Spielberg and Frank Marshall. The film focuses on a suburban family whose home is invaded by malevolent ghosts that abduct their youngest daughter. As Spielberg was contractually unable to direct another film while he made '' E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,'' Hooper was selected based on his work on ''The Texas Chain Saw Massacre'' and ''The Funhouse''.

Accounts differ as to the level of Spielberg's involvement, but it is clear that he was frequently on set during filming and exerted signi ...
