Poltergeist You\u2019d expect a little kid to a have a football poster up in his room, but what makes this weird is the fact Poltergeist was released in 1982, but Superbowl XXII wouldn\u2019t be played for another six years. <\/p>\n 6. The Girl from Petrovka<\/strong> That\u2019s weird enough by itself, but two years later, Hopkins met with Feifer who admitted that he\u2019d lost his own copy of his book (complete with his personal notes) after he lent it to a friend who left it somewhere in London. It turns out the copy of the book that Hopkins found belonged to Feifer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 7.

\n<\/strong>In the classic horror film, Poltergeist, there\u2019s a poster hanging above Robbie\u2019s bed that reads \u201c1988 Superbowl XXII\u201d:<\/p>\n
\nSo why did they use a poster from a future game? Well, no one really knows, but on January 31, 1988, the day Superbowl XXII was held, Heather O\u2019Rourke (the actress who played Robbie\u2019s younger sister) became violently ill. She passed away the next day at Rady Children\u2019s Hospital in San Diego, less than five miles away from Jack Murphy Stadium where Super Bowl XXII was played.<\/p>\n
\nIn the early 1970s, Anthony Hopkins agreed to star in the film adaptation of George Feifer\u2018s novel The Girl from Petrovka. After searching several London bookstores, Hopkins wasn\u2019t able to find a copy of the book anywhere and just as he had given up his search, he spotted an abandoned copy on a bench and decided to swiped it.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>In the late 1930s, after a series of successful gangster films, Warner Brothers was pressured by FDR\u2019s Attorney General Homer Cummings to make a series of films that glorified law enforcement agents rather than criminals. So Warners Bros decided to make a series of Secret Service films starring then actor Ronald Reagan.<\/p>\n

\nReagan once called one of the movies, Code of the Secret Service, \u201cthe worst picture I ever made,\u201d but the movie actually saved his life. Over 40 years later, President Reagan was the target of an assassination attempt, but his life was spared thanks to quick thinking by Secret Service Agent Jerry Parr. The weird part? Parr was inspired to join the Secret Service after watching Ronald Reagan in Code of the Secret Service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
