Extended Cut of Poltergeist Remake Heads Home
Adding almost nothing to the original, Poltergeist (review) was one of those remakes that was more about simply updating a story for modern audiences, and it provided some fun entertainment for younger viewers. Now the film is headed home, and it brings footage not seen in theaters!
Poltergeist arrives on Digital HD September 4th and on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, and DVD on September 29th. Read on for full release details.
From the Press Release:
Fox 2000 Pictures and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures present POLTERGEIST, from legendary filmmaker Sam Raimi (Spider-Man, Evil Dead, The Grudge) and director Gil Kenan (Monster House). It contemporizes the 1982 classic about a family whose suburban home is haunted by evil forces. When terrifying apparitions escalate their attacks and hold the youngest daughter captive, the family must come together to rescue her before she disappears forever.
Kenan directs from a screenplay by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Lindsay-Abaire. The film is produced by Raimi and Rob Tapert, p.g.a. (Evil Dead) via Ghost House Pictures, along with Roy Lee, p.g.a. (The Departed). The film is executive produced by J.R. Young (The Grudge 3), Audrey Chon (Changeling), John Powers Middleton (The LEGO® Movie), and Becki Cross Trujillo (Snitch).
POLTERGEIST stars Sam Rockwell (Moon), Rosemarie DeWitt (Rachel Getting Married), Jared Harris (“Mad Men”), and Jane Adams (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind).
With suspenseful storytelling and jaw-dropping visuals, this electrifying take on a spine-chilling classic will haunt you from its early nightmarish moments to its exhilarating climax!
