Gone but never forgotten

Rest in Peace Dominique Dunne and Heather O' Rourke. We miss you!
r.i.p tobe hooper.
This movie is cursed with so many people involved in it dying!!!
Moogaar1 I do too
Movie weren't cursed. What happened afterwards happened is all.
Y'all want to bring up a curse. There is a lake here in my state that many sequels of a movie were filmed at that dries up every few years or so and exposes a cemetary of living corpses.
@@anglerfish8278 Oh wow. do tell
This song is both comforting and terrifying at the same time.
Damn
IKR
It sounds like it is being sung by a chorus of deceased children.
For shure Bro
Listen to the song backwards i find it sounds creepy i love it
@@kodikodi1989 I'm sorry that things don't run so smooth, Im dealing with degenerate animals out here.
Jerry Goldsmith was a genius. Unforgettable theme for an unforgettable movie. May he rest in peace.
Jerry Goldsmith was a "god" of movie composers -- right up there if not EXCEEDING John Williams and John Barry.
BEAUTIFUL!!!! Nothing beats the 80's for movies & their music!!! Nostalgia & Sadness 😥 here!!! Those times are gone forever 💔
I think we can bring it back.
This melody was so touching during the scene where Carol Ann's mom feels her spirit blow through her. There's something about her innocence combined with the love of her mother that make the moment incredible.
AC_Orestes I cry EVERY TIME in that scene, lol.
Yes omg when she's like "I can smell her!! And she goes around to everyone so they can smell Carol Anns scent 🥺 so touching
@Raven The God 22 Did you know this movie was inspired by an episode of The Twilight Zone that Director Steven Spielberg saw when he was younger?
@@rizzoo3684 JoBeth Williams was just amazing in both the first and second parts. You absolutely believed she was a loving mother to her family.
This movie is so beautiful😢
The 80's. The best movie era of all times.
Truly....these were magical times my friend...

@@artis20s why
I'm a grown-ass 31 yo man, but this melody makes me tear up every time.
Ok?😂 that was unnecessary
@@TheMidnight_Wolf What makes you say that?
@@kennethwebber8159 the way you said it makes me laugh no offense
@@kennethwebber8159 Because it should shit your trousers! That's the genius about it Sir! If I hear this I see the clown puppet! I see the face melting, The tree! The skeletons in the swimming pool...
@@ReyntiensDanny I see my dead grandma, as the family did.
Poltergeist was the first movie I ever saw in a theatre. Even 35 years later, it is still my favourite by far. The score alone stands the test of time, and perfectly embodies the atmosphere of 80s suburban life, but with very subtle supernatural undertones. Kudos to Jerry Goldsmith, a masterful composer and a perfect choice for this film.
Terror
I wish I could have seen it in a theatre back then.
Even now. The whole thing is perfect
There will never be another decade for movie scores like this one.
No, unfortunately.
beautiful and creepy at the same time....
Yeah. That laughter at the end is the only moment in the entire film that still scares me as an adult.
My thoughts exactly, beautiful & creepy.

@@sickboy7104 the laughing at the end creeps me out too .
Imagine you tell someone to write the music to a horror movie about the supernatural kidnapping of a child and this is what you get. It's actually genius.
Jerry Goldsmith was an amazing composer!

Now, sadly, is dead
@@deccadente damn bro. A tragedy. Hell. Most of the deaths linked to this movie is absolutely heartbreaking. Makes me wanna cry, while listening to this beautiful melody
Like I'm doing right now
Beatiful music goldsmith wrote. Just hearing by itself and picturing scenes from the moive just sends chills now. The lullby is makes me thing of Heather.
There's is something that is most beautiful yet unsettling about this this theme
So haunting and yet so beautiful at the same time. Rest in peace Ms. O'Rourke and Ms. Dunne.
KillerFrank The "Wonderful Jerry Goldsmith" Too!
May they rest in peace ....
And Mr. Goldsmith
@@Samirah_al_ifaf Yes
and RIP Zelda Rubinstein
I've always loved this theme song !!! May Dominique Dunne & Heather O' Rourke , R.I.P. 😢😭 🌷🌸💐🌺🌹🕊
Ahhhhh....this is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. RIP Heather, Dominique and Jerry Goldsmith....thank you!
Thank you Spielberg for blessing us with this masterpiece.
I really wish he was the director of this film
@@daffyduck9323 ele foi, apenas não oficialmente
The director was Tobe Hooper
@@lucasgabaritante3569É isso aí rs. Muitos que trabalharam no filme disseram que eles estava no set de filmagem quase todo dia!
this OST is really sad.. especially knowing that the little girl really died very young in real life.
Jane Doe sorry to hear that i know its sad its just life
S.L. Gray almost all movies film out of order & she's in it throughout except the ending when they come back from the other side
Dominique Dunne too. Awful what happened to her 😞
Thomas Quill she suffered cardiac arrest and died later that day at the hospital.
Emily Grant was it not because she had bowel obstruction?
To me, this is a gentle, peaceful tune and it's very surprising coming at the end of a horror film. Instead of a scary or creepy theme when the credits roll, we get a nice little composition that conveys peace and optimism, saying "no matter how bad things were, it's all over now and everything is OK." (It would be a suitable song to hear when my life's over!)
My heart weeps for my youth... for those days again to run and play and feel free.... my friends and family die, and my skin wrinkles, but I would change nothing at all... and every further second I live I think of Heather and I smile thru my tears... for one day she and I will swing on swings and play and run in heaven, and she will tell me tales of her time in the movies when she was back on earth. love to everyone.
+Alphonsus Tobin - Mate, you've just ended me with that sentiment! Beautifully put and pretty much how this song makes me feel too.
nice words. thank you so much.
TheHorrorWriter
twat I'm crying here thanks 😭😂
That was beautiful. Heather likes it very much.
I don't believe the Heather stuff, but it was enjoyable to read nonetheless. Brought warmth into my heart until the chorus from this song kicked in.
Incredible film....the writing, the acting, the directing & the music all came together to produce one heck of a movie!!
this music makes me cry everytime I hear it. I could hum along. It reminds me of my little brother. When we were still kids, we used to watch this movie in the late 90's almost every weekend. Missed him so much. He passed away in 2015.
Shervin Arceo Bless you and you will see him again. Beautiful music.
sorry for the loss.
I Hope he’s having a wonderful journey. Take care.
I am so sorry for your loss of your brother. My brother passed away last year on August 25th 2018. He was 39 years old.
I know EXACTLY how you feel because I lost my Mom this past 25 August. I’m sorry for your loss. 😢😢
Lovely theme tune. Steven Spielberg movies are great. He has such a big heart.
A big child. Love that about him.
This was not directed by Spielberg, it was Tobe Hooper that directed it, the director, writer, and creator of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Lol Topkek Spielberg still had a lot of involvement with this film’s production, though.
@@brwhizz3060 just like he did Goonies, Gremlins, Young Sherlock Holmes, and every other film Spielberg riders like to give him majority credit for?
@jmd2789
Following Hooper's passing on August 27, 2017, director Mick Garris, who was a publicist on the film and visited the set on several occasions, came to Hooper's defense on the Post Mortem podcast:
"Tobe was always calling action and cut. Tobe had been deeply involved in all of the pre-production and everything. But Steven is a guy who will come in and call the shots. And so, you're on your first studio film, hired by Steven Spielberg, who is enthusiastically involved in this movie. Are you gonna say, 'Stop that... let me do this'? Which [Tobe] did.
[...] Tobe was a terrific filmmaker. I don't think it's that Steven was controlling. I think it was Steven was enthusiastic. And nobody was there to protect Tobe. But all of the pre-production was done by Tobe. Tobe was there throughout. Tobe's vision is very much realized there. And Tobe got credit because he deserved credit. Including... Steven Spielberg said that.
[...] Yes, Steven Spielberg was very much involved. It's a Tobe Hooper film."
Also Tobe was the one who wanted it to be a ghost movie, and helped Spielberg with the treatment. So Spielberg wasn't even full writer or creator of this universe.
Nothing beats the original
whitney its true
Still horrifying to this day.
Yeah, I love this movie.
Great effects, great music, great likable characters you really care for and are very well acted... YEAH, LET'S REMAKE THAT SHIT!!!
Whitney Pyant Nothing will ever be better.
I watched Poltergeist 3 the other day. Heather O'Rourke was really a great actress. I'm so sad when I think about her death at that very young age. May she rest in peace.
Not enough people give Tobe Hooper credit for directing this film. It's remarkable how he could go from something as grim and bleak as Texas Chainsaw Massacre to something as emotional as Poltergeist. Truly versatile horror filmmaker.
Most people don't believe he did direct it.
Oh shit I didn’t know He directed Texas chainsaw mascre but anyway I’m only 15 and this theme haunts me forever no joke
I mean he did Salem's Lot before this. so not a big surprise he could pull off an emotional scene.
@@leonlinton634yeah has that ever been confirmed? I reckon Spielberg was definitely a "hands on" producer and probably contributed a bit but haven't heard any confirmation that he basically directed the whole thing. It's still very murky.
@@MichaelTuohy Spielberg apparently was on set every day he wasn't working on post-production of ET; he also did the casting for the film as well; also, the editor for the film, Michael Kahn, has been the editor for Spielberg since Close Encounters.
Thank you for posting this. My mother passed away almost 5 years ago and this was one of her favorite movies. Me and my two sisters grew up on 80's horror movies and even though poltergeist was a horror movie it was basically a family movie for us. Whenever we'd watch it we would always listen to this song at the end....hearing this song brought back memories of my family in the living watching poltergeist and my mom still being alive. This song is and always will be a great part of my childhood.....thank you
This movie and theme song ALWAYS takes me back to a beautiful place in my childhood! I was born 10 years after this movie was released but I grew up before I was even in my double digits just drawn to this movie! Rest In Paradise Heather O'rourke and Dominique Dunne and the rest who passed shortly after this movie was released. 👼🙏💓
Yeah
Same here. Almost.
I love how Jerry didn't make the theme scary but very peaceful sounding that's why he's my favorite composer
One of the most beautiful, touching scores ever. Jerry Goldsmith was a master. One of the films that defined my childhood. This majestic music takes me back to a time of innocence. Thank you Jerry.
Still brings a tear to the eye. RIP Heather x
Jerry Goldsmith was such a master of film music. He could compose a mellow, wistful theme and make it haunting at the same time. A great movie and a classic music score!
Jerry and heather are chatting away in heaven.
Rest in peace Titanic and her passengers. Never forgotten. Xx
Such a beautiful sad lullaby for a scary film. Jerry was showing the parents love for their little girl with this theme. Remembering Heather.
R.I.P Heather O'rourke died at 12 years old,cause of death:intestinal stenosis.Will be missed by all
R.I.P. Jerry Goldsmith and Tobe Hooper
R.I.P Heather O'Rourke😢😢😞😭😭😭😭 We all love you💚💛💜💙💖💕💞

This piece of beautiful music always brings me to tears.
Wow., the Original Poltergeist. I remember this film being played every single day on Cable TV During the entire Summer of 1983. Which was obviously a year after it ran in theaters. I was heading into my sophomore year in HS that Fall... The ending theme always stayed in My mind.!!!
this is very beautiful and takes you to a time of your life when you were innocent and worry free and not exposed to the evils of the world yet.... i miss those childhood days
exactly
I feel the same
+gimpyjwilliams Could not agree more.
I WAS .
We've killed many Kane's throughout history, but they seem to always show up again and again.
There’s a lot of great horror music but this is far and away the most beautiful. When I was in the band back in middle school we played a medley of horror classics and this one was everyone’s favorite.
Still brings me to tears.... And right when I listen the laughs of children, a deep chill is send down my spine.
RIP Heather O'Rourke and Dominique Dunne
I know Heather but who does Dominique play
@@STARBurst-bz1id She played Dana, her older sister in the movie. She was murdered a few short months after the movie came out.
Man this movie is cursed
Did you ever watch a sad movie and recall a vision of horror as if what you yourself thought was sad could not ever approach it? Well this artist played this music that evening. It lay there and rose up at the same time and overtook what was left over. So...there.
rest in peace old MGM studio.
I would go with my dad to the video store when I was a kid in the 80s and the cover of this movie scared the shit out of me! Now I have the poster hanging in my room.
never found this creepy just gentle lullabye like ,
Same
More like a sad lullaby. The last haunted house I moved into it was clean. Soon as I was in all the spooks cleared out. Who needs Ghost busters. Spirits are very much real you know. Just ask anyone who loves to drink alcohol. Two men walked into a bar and ended up with a sore hangover. Why would anyone walk into a bar. I blame those spirits. Spirits and men who drink get on well together.
@@thomasmcgready9305 spirits are nottttt realll 😂
Listen up everyone just don't tell those who like to go to the off sales to get in there spirits that spirits aren't real. Without those spirits it's no fun. I mean come on you don't believe in vodka or whisky, and all the other spirits behind the bar waiting to entertain your thirst. I mean many very well know actors did believe in there spirits. So many and only two I put in are Dean Martin and Oliver Reid. Little old wine drinking me. What no spirits come on. Not even a laugh. In the bar and off sales spirits are very much real. Even I do have a good sense of humour. In real life I've never ever experienced anything of a supernatural incedent. Just the same as many others who also haven't.
But there's others who have experienced what none of us ever want to. Who are we to say that they didn't go through such. Was we there with them when it all did go on. No we wasn't. Many true mediums and spirit ghost hunters will state it very clearly to believe in what they went through you have to be there where its happining. And they are registered professionals for going into old buildings. Taken other experienced professionals also registered with them. The film The Exorcist was based on real true life events.
And in real life it was a young boy who was possessed not a girl. Many real life cases of possession was kept very well hidden and forgotten. When people play around with wedgie boards they are opening doors to whp knows where and who knows what.
Putting out a welcome doormat. People messing around with what never should not be disturbt.
Just because we never experienced it. That doesn't mean it's not real. And when I said the last house I went to all the ghosts ran away and this house is clean I was being funny.
Well then wait till you get to 3:12
There’s something really beautiful about this track. You would never expect it to have been the theme for a horror movie.
Yes !!! 💙
I think it trys to represent the after life and spirits.
@@Mulberry2000 i can definitely imagine a very beautiful and ethereal spirit dancing. almost as if they were floating through air
Goodbye, Tobe Hooper, thanks for your wonderful movies.
You will always be remembered.
This is a song that… it feels relaxing and nice. But at the same time, it gives me the creeps, and chills. This movie is a masterpiece!
This makes me cry for that innocent angel, hope she is resting in peace 😢
ask her for me...
@@gothboschincarnate3931 Huh?
@@Queen_Bunny_Faye lol...no need she is doing fine. she has such tiny, kind hands.
This is a pretty iconic horror movie theme, without really sounding like a horror movie theme. Instead, it has an ethereal and mystic tone, which is pretty much the tone of the film when you get down to brass tacks. It’s a stark contrast to the themes of The Exorcist, The Thing, and Halloween, but it’s every bit as iconic.
Except for the children laughing at the end. That’s one of the most bone-chilling sounds I’ve ever heard.
We played this for orchestra a few years ago. I'm tearing up listening to it, it's actually so beautiful.
I saw this movie on the BIG screen in 1982 and when they rereleased in 1983. This movie kicks ass on a big theater screen!
Larry i would have died. from all mobies i have seen. it and poltergeist still scare me.. brrrr
Yes it did
A hauntingly beautiful music ....
but why do I feel so sad and want to cry ?
If you were a child during this time, this theme stuck with you. We, all of us, knew what this theme was. For those who come afterwards, well......I hope you get this. I truely do. Good luck to you.
I was born in 2002 but i grew up with these movies , and it really makes me sad to what happened to the whole crew after the movies.
I haven't actually watched the movie but I know the song for some reason and always come back to it
Born in 2008. Got into horror in 2018. Horror fanatic in 2019. Horror seeker in 2020.
I understand what you are saying completely.
I was 10 and a half years old when this movie came out in 1982.
Happy 40th to this movie!! And may the actors and actresses rest in peace and not have their graves desecrated by suburban neighborhoods
rest in peace the most adorable kid in the world.. rest in peace Heather...
This is sooo calming and creepy:) how I like it.
My favourite piece of music gives me goosebumps every time i hear it brings back so many childhood memories thank you for this classic music amen
Rest In Peace Dominique Ellen Dunne. November 4, 1982
Beautiful & Crystal Clear. 👍
As someone who isn't really into horror films, this has to be one of the best ones yet.
Such a beautiful piece.
Poltergiest 1 and 2 are still some on my fav childhood movies. Miss the 80s.
I enjoyed reading some of the comments about the Poltigeist movie and theme . The movie was more of a romantic adventure drama than horror. I feel sad about the passing of Heather and Dominique and the theme , perfectly , reflects the mood of this . These are 2 loving angels looking down on us with love . Agreed , I have never heard a music theme so sweet but so creepy at the same time . A lot of people hate the 2015 remake but I liked it as it was much lighter and plot and storyline somewhat different with the middle child - older brother being the hero who rescues the baby sister instead of the mom .[apples and oranges]
Cuando el mundo de la música era inocente.
Preciosa banda sonora.
They’re here! Great movie theme
I always loved this theme. The great Jerry Goldsmith. So beautiful when it goes into the full orchestra at 1:23
Soundtrack from Goldsmith = AWESOME.
But : The Ghosts in this Movie are NOT SCARY.

Rest in peace heather you would have been my age right now i beautiful baby angel left us to soon may you be in gods arms 🤧😢😢😢
One of my favorite themes! Gives me mixed feelings, but in a good way.
My bff loved this when he was dying I played this on his baby grand piano in the living room for him it's somehow made him relax it has that kind of heartbreak to it and I remember playing it for him I open the windows and the doors to Let the Rain Sound come in and I played a 25-minute version of it my mother taught me classic piano and I learn to play the keyboards quite easy so it was really nice I started to play it on a harp ones but I didn't have as much practice as I did on the piano so it's always been our favorite song him and I His Name Is Irv Saul Wagman and I miss him everyday of my life
It is such a beautiful movie , great cast , saw it first of many times aged seven growing up in the UK , but the sequel did not add up to much , some movies should not have sequels . Also tragedy with this movie Heather o Rourke who played the daughter in the movie , five years after the movie was made she very sadly passed away . The theme is so beautiful . I cannot wait to see it again many more times .
Jerry Goldsmith is a master of music !
This tune is so so sad I beleive its little angels laughing at the end reminds me back in my childhood days..rip..heather you cant ever been forgotton x
Maybe they are little angelic children but the laughter was still creepy
After such a gentle and beautiful piece of music the children's laughter is eerie as hell.
Is it me, or the music, but when I hear this it makes me feel I want to have a little cry. It just sounds so lovely.
I didn't even grow up in the 80's- yet this is nostalgic af for some reason
Great Steven Spielberg film, such a sweet melody theme!! r.i.p. Heather O'Roarke 🙁💙 !
I really wish he was the director
Tobe Hopper is the director of the movie. Spielberg is the producer
I was born in 1998, but I'm so thankful my parents brought me up with classic 80's movies like this, rather then just new ones. I remember my dad let my brother and I watch all these horror movies when we were young despite my mums liking. I can still remember I was 7 and my mum came home from work to find My dad, my younger brother who was 5 at the time and I watching Chucky, She was so pissed. She eventually just gave up and let us watch horror movies. 😂
I love this theme
Incredible film. One of the greats. God bless the 80’s.
I was born in...1973. When I first seen this movie. It "scared the S#3%" out of me. Couldn't sleep without looking under my bed for "weeks". Thanks, Speilberg.
Really wish he was director
1980s epic mysterious scary exciting
As kids we played outside and our form of entertainment was getting lost watching a great movie. What a time to be a kid. Miss those times
Who’s with me ? i was 5 in 1980 and 14 when the magic ended. I didn’t even know what I had lived
Growing up in So Cal Pomona
RIP Heather, we miss you .
One of the most iconic songs
Remember when horror movies actually had a story and weren't just made to scare you?
It's kind of weird cuz I've never seen the movie, but when I was in high school marching band, we played this. I went through a lot of emotional hardship and band was one of the few things I felt I could really devote myself to, and so a lot of my happier moments are from that. That was 7 years ago now, but this song still brings me to tears.
That's so cool this song was a choice for it. I honestly wish this and other movie tracks were used for marching bands or school events
I can't stop crying, and watching this. 😞
Awesome....
Absolutely Love This Track...
Rest In Peace dear loving Heather. You were my hero when I was a little girl and still are. Love you so much honey. When I was little and found out you passed away in 1988, I was very sad and couldn’t believe that a beautiful sweet girl like you passed away. Love you Heather. 💞💞💞💞💖😭🌹🌸🦋🌻🌸💛💓💖
Hard to believe it's been 30 years since she died. She'd be 43 today.
Rest In Peace Heather xx
This has such a "calm before the storm" feel to it, especially the instrumental interlude in the middle which sounds to me like a bright sunny day in an idyllic, peaceful neighborhood with kids riding bikes, friendly neighbors, and lush green grass.
Rest in Heavenly Peace Mom - I MISS YOU SO MUCH MORE THAN WORDS COULD EVER SAY. I’M SO TRULY TRULY SORRY FOR ALL THE WAYS THAT I MISTREATED YOU AND I SINCERELY HOPE THAT YOU AND GOD WILL TRULY FORGIVE ME. 😢😢😢
I love this song the way it is. That said, I wouldn’t mind an identical version with the exception that their is only one child’s voice. That would be spooky.
Full body goosebumps. This is a sweet piece from a special era in film-making (my childhood.)
Always Have Loved it ❤️
The house the freelings lived in is in Simi valley CA.,4267 Roxbury st...It's still there to this day & looks exactly the same as when they made this movie there
I can't stop thinking about how sad it was when we lost Heather at such a young age 😟, every time I hear this theme song, it makes me cry for her 😣. One of the best horror movies of the 80s.
this movie is just incredible. It made me cry. Very few movies do that.
