I saw an interview where they said she could be allowed out of her contract but Heather wanted to finish the film. She was determined even for a little girl
When it got to this scene I always thought it had Freddy Krueger/A nightmare on elm street vibes. Especially when they go "we're back" and she gets dragged up the wall.
I think it's far better than it was ever given credit for, very artistic approach and it was in no way trying to ride on the coat-tails of the previous films
@@Chef_Alpo I agree. I was 7 or 8 when it had just aired on cable and it kinda creeped me out. I also think it's a better movie than it was given credit for.
Poltergeist was one of my favorite horror movies of all time. This as a kid I remember scaring me more than both a nightmare on elm street and Friday the 13th combined.
Stop with the back in my day b.s. When everything's been done, its hard to find something new, duh. Go create , write and direct yourself, do us a favor in Hollywood
Actually, the swelling of her face was BECAUSE they were NOT neglecting her. She was being prescribed cortisone injections to treat the Crohn's Disease she was misdiagnosed with less than a year before she died, and the swelling was a side effect of the shots. They were indeed taking her to the doctor regularly, UNFORTUNATELY, though they knew she had suddenly developed digestive issues, they had no idea she had Intestinal Stenosis as she showed no prior symptoms of that particular condition. Doctors said the symptoms of it tend to go back YEARS, and is usually not sudden. They had no reason to suspect it or look for it. Yes, she was misdiagnosed, but it was not due to neglect by her parents and I dare say, the doctors either. And yes, she was special. RIP.
@Ainsley Gibson To be fair. She was falsely diagnosed for Crohn’s disease which they prescribed her with a steroid (Cortisone) which made her face swollen. So she was perscribed with a drug for something she didn’t have. Turns out when they examined her after she passed, she had stenosis. If they had spotted that earlier and treated heather, she would still be alive today!! Hope this correction helps!! 😁God bless Heather O’Rourke (Carol Anne Freeling)
@James Willis They gave her cortisone (steroids) because they thought she had Crohn’s disease, which made her face swollen and she was self conscious about the way she looked. She passed from genetic stenosis, they could have spotted it and had her treated soon as possible. Sweet little girl, my auntie used to be in the same class as her when she was younger. Never shy but she didn’t wanted to be recognised as Carol Anne Freeling from Poltergeist but the way she is, a Normal human being. Which she loved her for it. God bless her. RIP Heather
That second one , Kane done brilliantly by an actor that pass away shortly after . Poltergeist 2 may be the greatest horror movie sequel ever , along with Phantasm 2 … Texas Chainsaw 2 was pretty epic .
Good film though it's a Shame that the young Actress Heather O'Rourke passed away So young,She would Have in my opinion Gone on to more Greater things in life But sadly it wasn't to Be.
The first movie mentions that she was born in the original house that was haunted, and that the ghosts were attracted to her youthful innocence. The second movie explains it a bit better though, and suggests that she also had the ability to 'see' and sense things that other people couldn't.
I think evil things think beautiful spirits can cure/heal them. For real. They try to take it for themselves, but it doesn't work that way. Children are usually purer spirits before they are trained out of their own natural power.
OK...let me say, Poltergeist III was a totally unnecessary sequel and often my "Mystery Science Theater 3000" riff...I quote so many bad things about this film. But it has it's charm and it's practical effects were pretty good.
@@BrianWolters2112 Yeah while not the best, it was alright. I love the first movie and the other side, those were the only good movies in the franchise.
Yeah, I'm a sucker for practical effects, Despite a film being bad(I actually liked this film), if it has practical effects, you can't help but appreciate it in a certain way. Unlike a certain film (the thing 2011)
If poltergeist had more sequels *alt title if Heather O Rourke was still alive* Poltergeist (1982) Poltergeist II (1986) Poltergeist III (1988) Poltergeist IV (1991) Poltergeist V (1999) Poltergeist VI (2001) Poltergeist VII (2003) Poltergeist VIII (2007) Poltergeist IX (2009) The Return Of Carol Anne (2013) Poltergeist X (2017) Poltergeist XI (2019) POLTERGEIST ACTIVITY 1 (2021) POLTERGEIST ACTIVITY 2 (2022) POLTERGEIST ACTIVITY 3 (2024)

Było widać że ta choroba ją męczyła i dawała się w znaki.
Watching this as a 9 year old was probably not one of the best ideas in my 40 years of life. Wouldn't look in a mirror for sooooo long.
A Chicago high-rise was such a good setting for this.
That poor little girl was so sick and they made her work for the film it’s just so hard to watch
That’s Hollywood
@@TreforTreforgan u mean thats her parents fault. They are the only one's that can sign for it. Hollywood gon be evil regardless.
True
I read that her face was swollen due to the medication she was on.
I saw an interview where they said she could be allowed out of her contract but Heather wanted to finish the film. She was determined even for a little girl

I had that same Speak and Spell as a child 😂🤣🤣
Me too!

Loved that thing too!!! 😅
I love the Mirror Reflections in this movie ....
Poltergeist III is not the best but its not that bad

The first Poltergeist movie was/is the best.
Heather was such a gorgeous child, even with how sick she looked!
I remember when this was released. (Sigh) Gone are the days of good movies.
Poltergeist was one of my favorite horror movies of all time. This as a kid I remember scaring me more than both a nightmare on elm street and Friday the 13th combined.
But this wasn’t a good movie.

R.I.P Heather O’Rourke. She Would Be 48 Years Old If She Were Still Alive Today. Also R.I.P Dominique Dunne Who Would Be 64 Today.
To young. R.I.P. Heather O'Rouke.🙏🪦
Poltergeist (1982) "They're heeeeeeerrrrrrrrre..."
Poltergeist 2: The Other Side (1986) 😨"They're baaaaaack!!!"
Poltergeist 3 (1988) 😈"WE'RE BACK!"
The tagline to Poltergeist 3 is "He's Found Her!"
And in the movie trailer, it's: "Guess who's back in town."
You could tell by how swelled her face and neck were she wasn't healthy, such neglect, a special soul gone so fast and far too young. RIP.

People jump to conclusions and make stuff up. Thank you for your detailed and accurate information.
You can tell in her cheeks that she’s not well somethings not right
She had a condition that she had to take medicine for. The medicine made her face swollen
@@ainsleygibson9196 Thanks to a bunch of bumbling doctors who misdiagnosed her.
@StopListenThink
It was a steroid called cortisone
that made her cheeks swell up. She said she felt self conscious about it.

I never understood why they wanted the little girl. I was a kid myself when this came out.
The first movie mentions that she was born in the original house that was haunted, and that the ghosts were attracted to her youthful innocence. The second movie explains it a bit better though, and suggests that she also had the ability to 'see' and sense things that other people couldn't.
I think evil things think beautiful spirits can cure/heal them. For real. They try to take it for themselves, but it doesn't work that way. Children are usually purer spirits before they are trained out of their own natural power.
because clearly Kane was gender activist and wanted to prey on this innocent child to transform her into non-binary person.

I thought creepy preacher dudes only went after little boys; What did he want from Carolan?
Looking back now it feels like they were in disguise telling the world what they were up to.
this movie is too scary. i want to watch it again but i cant deal with the fear.
That mirror scene of the evil reflection of herself got me the creeps.

They had to use a double to finish the movie as she unfortunately passed away before it was finished. R.I.P.

heather was paid $140,000 for her role on this one, more than the first two

This is a job for Kamen Rider Ryuki!
I know this is pretty Terminator but it's kind of like Terminator said it were back or I'll be back
That s terrible that they made her do that knowing she was very sick.
I love how in 1988 they knew that one day trans-activists will haunt children the way Kane haunted poor Carole Anne.
