Carlos and Donna had never seen Poltergeist, but Chris suspected that it would be a perfect pick for this year\'s Halloween episode. The film\'s success paved the way for two sequels, a TV series, and a remake - but its real legacy seems to be a curse that supposedly haunted the cast & crew and some controversy surrounding who actually directed it. We get into all of that and more so turn off the lights, grab some candy, and follow the HDYR gang into the light.

Topics include: One of Chris\' worst Halloweens as a kid, the lighthearted first act and why the film works so much better because of it, the sequences that still creep us out, some stuff that hasn\'t aged as well, the origins of the Poltergeist curse, why the family stays in the house, what happens to the dog, how much weed Mom & Dad smoked, and much much more!
