July 28, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

In celebration of the 40th anniversary of Poltergeist, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has announced that Tobe Hooper’s 1982 classic horror will arrive on 4K Ultra HD this September. Check out the cover artwork, details and trailer below…

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 Freelings’ 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 from director Tobe Hooper (Texas Chainsaw Massacre films) and producer and screenwriter Steven Spielberg.

  • The Making of Poltergeist
