4. Poltergeist (1982)
Memorable quote: “They're heeeeeere.”
Scare factor: From white-noise on the TV to empty in-ground pools to ancient Indian burial grounds, the scares are almost too numerous to count. This movie would make anyone want to know as much as humanly possible about the history of a house before buying it. It's the ultimate haunted house movie.
