Sci-Fi

Tobe Hooper got a raw deal. The director of horror hits
The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and
Poltergeist didn't deserve to be sent to movie jail for 1985's
Lifeforce.
It's a well-crafted, well-intentioned work that was mismarketed and
misunderstood, losing a bundle of money and soon sending Hooper into the
lands of episodic television and direct-to-video features.
