Man, I can't believe this. We're losing too many movie heroes this year. I recently bought Tobe's excellent version of Salem's Lot. Godspeed, Tobe.

Typical B-movie director. The rumour (or has it been proved?) that his directorial credit in Poltergeist was only in name and Spielberg did all the work certainly shows by comparison with his other movies, because it's his best by a mile. I did really enjoy The Funhouse or I'm Dangerous Tonight, though.
