Steven Spielberg and Tobe Hooper's POLTERGEIST is Getting 4K Ultra HD Release and Here's a Trailer
Steven Spielberg and Tobe Hooper’s classic 1982 horror film Poltergeist is getting a new 4K Ultra HD release and it’s a must-own for any hardcore fan of the film! Warner Bros. Entertainment announced that the film will be released on September 20th, and Best Buy will be selling a SteelBook version.
This is the first time Poltergeist has hit 4K, and it’s coming just in time for the film’s 40th anniversary. The Special Features include The Making of Poltergeist featurette, They Are Here: The Real World of Poltergeists featurette, and the Theatrical trailer.
A typical family in a quiet suburb of a normal California faces a frightening ordeal when its home is invaded by a Poltergeist. Late one night, 10-year-old Carol Anne Freeling (Heather O’Rourke) hears a voice coming from inside the television set … At first, the spirits that invade the Freeling’s home seem like playful children. But then they turn angry. And when Carol Anne is pulled from this world into another, Steve and Diane Freeling (Craig T. Nelson and JoBeth Williams) turn to an exorcist (Zelda Rubinstein) in this horror classic.
I love this film. It’s one of my favorite horror movies and it was even the subject of an episode of our Secret Level podcast, which you can check out here. We share all kinds of fun information and commentary on the film. You should listen to it before you watch the movie again!
Anyway, we also have a 4K trailer to share with you teasing the remastered viewing experience. It looks great, check it out!
