This film has been a cause of a lot of loyal fan outrage, some are giving it a shot but still remain worried about what is to come. But whether you are on board with it or not Fox is releasing a remake of the beloved horror classic Poltergeist, and now we are getting a peek at what the film will look like through the release of some images including some comments from the people involved in making the film.The images come from USA Today, who also shared some comments from the director of this new Poltergeist Gil Kenan. In this remake the story follows a family as they move into a new house in need of some repairs, but it turns out that the house needs some heavy spiritual cleansing even more. Like the original, television will serve as a bridge to the spirit world, but being set in a contemporary setting there are a lot more and even bigger screens. Here are some of the comments from Kenan:
“Whenever someone approaches material that's so beloved, there's a reflexive reaction to be worried. It's a responsibility we take very seriously. We're working to make a Poltergeist film that lives up to the original's legacy. The original film commented on how we've let television get out of control, babysitting our kids. It's only gotten worse with the handheld portable devices. Screens are everywhere. The film is super-scary. And it's scary on its own terms. I am excited to finally be able to share that with the world.”The new Poltergeist stars Sam Rockwell, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Kennedi Clements, hitting theaters on July 24th. Check the images below.
