Katrina S @Kattiegirl Aug 13 Worst 1 hour and 33 minutes of my life I can’t get back I’m sad See more J H @UpstateNYThriller Jul 22 7.5/10 Remake of the classic movie. A family falls on hard financial times and moves into a house built on top of the cemetery. Very real haunting takes the youngest daughter into alternate dimension Haunting, horror, sci-fi See more Adam S @spec72 May 17 Pointless remake rushes through the plot points of the original and adds nothing. See more Charles T. @CharlesGaming1000 May 8 Dope, og Poltergeist is ofc better though See more Chris P @Xiao_Proxies Apr 14 The 2015 version of Poltergeist is a textbook example of how not to revisit a horror classic. It strips away everything that made the 1982 original genuinely terrifying and replaces it with a frantic mess of CGI effects, rushed pacing, and a complete lack of atmosphere. Rather than building suspense, the film throws every paranormal cliché at the audience in rapid succession. There's no breathing room, no rising tension, just noise. The characters make irrational decisions (like refusing to call the police when their daughter disappears), and the acting ranges from flat to painfully awkward. What's worse is that the film feels more like a soulless checklist of horror tropes than an actual narrative. It neither pays respectful homage nor establishes its own identity. It's as if the filmmakers watched the original and said, "Let's do the same, but louder and dumber." An uninspired remake that misunderstands its source material. Skip this one and revisit the original instead. See more Mario F @Mario1976 Apr 10 Der Film verspricht pure Langeweile. Und die Schauspielerische Leistung ist der absolute horro.
