I actually had no idea it was JoBeth until the credits rolled! She looked so different! I love her in Poltergeist.

That is what mental illness is really like; it's not suposed to look sophsticated
According to the book, she really did laugh maniacally when she was doing that. Also, this version makes the enema scene twice as frightening because it shows the little girl reacting and you could feel the terror she seemed to feel when she was tied up on the table. The same would go for the button-hook.
