A haunted house telefilm in the vein of Poltergeist, there's enough atmosphere and weirdness in The Haunted to make it noteworthy. Add to that a very sincere and somehow Golden Globe-nominated performance by Sally Kirkland and you've got a pretty noteworthy TV horror movie. The scares here are relatively tame, but they're still unsettling. There's also some humor in how the family complains about media coverage about their haunting, despite the fact they contacted the press and later wrote a book chronicling their experiences.
