Poltergeist remake

Share |

That was probably the scariest film you’ve ever seen, and it’s to be remade. Soon. According to Variety, MGM Studio’s seeking a director to remake Poltergeist. They’ve already got screenplay writers – Stiles White and Juliet Snowden, the guys who created the Boogeyman.

White and Snowden are specialists in horror projects. They co-wrote Knowing, starring Nicolas Cage and The Birds remake for Universal.

Poltergeist hit theatres on June 4, 1982 and was based on a script by Steven Spielberg, Michael Grais and Mark Victor, and was directed by Tobe Hooper. The sequels appeared in 1986 and 1988. The first film of the Poltergeist series was nominated for three Oscars.

The film is an ultimate horror movie mostly due to its so called curse.

Dominique Dunne who played Dana Freeling was murdered, Heather O’Rourke (Carol Anne Freeling) died prematurely, actress JoBeth Williams has pointed out in television interviews that she was actually told that the skeletons used in the well-known swimming pool scene in the first Poltergeist film were real.

Poltergeist was ranked as #80 on Bravo’s 100 Scariest Movie Moments.

And that’s something to refresh your memories. Poltergeist’s clown-attack scene. The quality is shitty but it’s damn scary.
