In this thrilling follow-up to the smash hit Poltergeist, the Freeling family (JoBeth Williams, Craig T. Nelson, Heather O’Rourke, Oliver Robins) settles into a new home following the annihilation of their former residence by terrifying visitors from the netherworld. But the spirits of the dead are still hell-bent on luring the family’s clairvoyant daughter Carol Anne to “the other side.” This chilling sequel, directed by Brian Gibson (Breaking Glass) also stars Will Sampson (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest), Julian Beck (The Cotton Club) and Zelda Rubinstein (Anguish), returning as Tangina.

STARRING: JoBeth Williams, Craig T. Nelson, Heather O’Rourke, Oliver Robins, Julian Beck

“They’re back?” The now-penniless Freeling family-Diane (JoBeth Williams), Steve (Craig T. Nelson), Carol Anne (Heather O’Rouke) and Robbie (Oliver Robbins) – flee after their Cuesta Verde tract house is obliterated by poltergeists and take refuge with Gramma Jess (Geraldine Fitzgerald). But even here, peace is not to be found. When Gramma Jess dies, Carol Anne’s telephone spontaneously rings with a call from “the other side”-from Grandma Jess! Soon a benign Indian mystic, Taylor (Will Sampson), appears at the Freeling family’s doorstep, saying he has been “sent” to protect them from the “family curse”. Another poltergeist attack and Steve decides that the family must leave. But Taylor insists that they must stay and fight the evil.
