Ghostmakers: The Magic of Poltergeist 2 (1986)
*** (out of 4)
This six-minute featurette is one of those that was originally produced to show on television so that the film in question could be sold. This one here takes a look at POLTERGEIST II and features interviews with actors Craig T. Nelson, JoBeth Williams as well as special effects artists Richard Edlund and Steve Johnson as well as director Bill Gibson. If you're a fan of the movie then you'll enjoy seeing these interviews as everyone does a nice job at selling the picture and like the other shorts on the film, this one here really goes after the special effects and how they were going to be unlike anything people had seen before. The short does a nice job at selling the material and that's what it was made for.
