We’re within the waning hours of what some folks name the spookiest season of the 12 months, and Hollywood is seemingly seeking to conjure up some last-minute vacation spirit (spirit as in ghosts) earlier than the entire ghouls and goblins flip into turkeys and mashed potatoes. But how do you give you a new spooky thought when that’s actually unattainable? Well, fortunately, there are numerous previous spooky concepts that may be endlessly recycled, and this time the winner is—reaches hand into plastic pumpkin, fishes round for one thing random and pulls it out—Poltergeist!
And earlier than you say “uh, they only did a Poltergeist reboot in 2015,” this reboot will truly be for tv, which is completely different from earlier than, which is nearly nearly as good as arising with one thing/something new! The undertaking is within the works at Amazon MGM, and there aren’t any writers connected but, so which means there’s not a lot concrete info we now have about this. Variety, which initially reported this information, says that the present will “be set inside the world of the movie,” so this is likely to be some form of legacy sequel factor.
Maybe a brand new household will purchase the lot/former cemetery that the home within the unique film was constructed on earlier than it obtained sucked right into a void? And somebody will come alongside and say “the Craig T. Nelson household used to stay right here, however we don’t speak about what occurred when their home obtained sucked right into a void.” Also, if solely as a result of that is the cool factor to do now, we might assume that it will ignore every thing that occurred in Poltergiest II: The Other Side and Poltergeist III. Unless it takes place on this planet of the 2015 movie? That will surely be a alternative.
