They're Baaack!

Earlier in the Countdown to Halloween 2017, I wrote about Poltergeist. Today I bring you the sequel, Poltergeist II: The Other Side. (I don't think I ever saw #3 nor do I have the pamphlet.)

A trailer...



It's not a great sequel but it has its moments.

Heather o'Rourke was quite the upcoming actress. Too bad she succumbed to the "Poltergeist Curse".

I've had a busy weekend, what with a wedding and all. I do wish I had done this wedding.

That would have been fun.

This Pikachu Mistio grape drink is a little too sweet for me yet it's the only way I can get these masking tapes as a present.

No UFO Catch today, so instead I have some origami that a student gave me on Friday.

A Jack o'lantern, candy and ghost!

They're here!

Flipping channels upon return from work, I came across スペースインベダー (Space Invader) which is the Japanese title for Invaders From Mars. It was rather dopey yet fun, which is what I think Tobe Hooper intended.  I don't have the pamphlet for it (yet!) though I did scam a couple of photos off the net.

Speaking of Tobe Hooper, I recently watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre for the first time in about 30 years. I think I'll wait another thirty before I watch it again. I don't have the pamphlet for it either (yet!) though I managed to find one for my favourite of his movies. Based on the title of this post, can you guess what it is?
ps. We've lost quite a few horror icons recently. requiescat in pace Tobe Hooper.

As you may have guessed, it's ポルターガイスト or Poltergeist. 

A dubbed version if you like...



Here's a poolful of photos from it.

 Most people credit Speilberg for this movie. Today, I'm giving Tobe his due.

Today's chocolate snack is a ghostly and vampiric Dars.

  

This dough-filled balloon sort of looks like a ghost and was given to me by some students today. So squishy and fun!

More ghostly goofiness tomorrow...
