Leave It Alone!
It looks like MGM is actually going through with its plans to remake 1982's "The Poltergeist." The studio has hired Juliet Snowden and Stiles White to write a script. They are also currently looking for a director.
Steven Spielberg co-wrote the original script about "a suburban home built over an Indian burial ground and thus inhabited by a nasty spirit." The original starred Craig T. Nelson, JoBeth Williams, Dominique Dunne and Heather O'Rourke. "Poltergeist" also spawned two sequels.
Many, including myself, think the movie is cursed! Heather and Dominique died after the film's release. Will Sampson, one of the stars of the sequel, performed an exorcism on the set to get rid of "alien spirits." He died a year after the sequel was released. There's a Wikipedia page on "The Poltergeist Curse."
Why would they even touch this?! It's obviously cursed! But if they insist, they should cast Heidi Montag, Parasite Hilton, Spencer Pratt and every member of The Westboro Baptist Church.

I will admit that I have never been a fan of the Poltergeist movies, but I think they should leave it alone. What's next?!... The Wraith, Sanford & Son: The Junkyard Years... In Hollywood, they need new people at the helm with fresh ideas.

um yeah they HAVE to do this remake and put 3/4's of Hollywood in it so they can all perish and also cast Fergie as the Poltergeist. I'd watch that. And that little locafea ecuadorian tranny as the little woman who exorcises the demon.

"...Dominique Dunne is author Dominick Dunne's daughter, her boyfriend murdered her."
My mother was friends with her boyfriend's parents. We lived only a block away from each other. They were so proud of him, when he became this big celebrity chef, out in Hollywood. Then he murdered Dominique. It was very shocking, to say the least. :(

@BB, oh yeah, that was really sad. I hope they don't have the bright idea to do that one.
What about my idea for a movie Hollywood? Mr. Francis Ford Coppola, Connie was calling the shots when Michael was sick. Connie and Kay needs to get revenge for the death of her daughter.
Please Mr. Francis Ford Coppola, make a Godfather part 4 with Talia Shire as the Godfather and Kay finally with the program.

Why don't they just go ahead and remake The Exorcist too? Between that and Poltergeist, half of Hollywood will die a gruesome death, and maybe we can get some new blood in there that has some original ideas.

Tobe Hooper directed this one.
Trivia, JoBeth Williams character was 32 in the movie and the oldest child, Dominique's character, was 16. Poltergeist Mom was 16 when she had her first child.

They can't remake this shit. It is THE ONLY film that scared the shit out of me, and it is only fair that future generations should be equally freaked out. Seriously, when my sister swings by she whispers "Carol Anne" at night, I still can't sleep.
And of course some executive will be cashing in a major pay check for coming up with this idea.
Whoever it was that is responsible for this should be ashamed of themselves.
I spit on them.

Now you know why indie films that the big Hollywood companies refuse to help out are such big hits, and why the only good film we get are from overseas or indie's low budget films, cause Hollywierd refuses to help out real talent instead chooses to help out big shots with lame ideas
Frankly my dear, I don't give a Damn!! "Rhett Butler"
I never saw that movie. Didn't John Landis direct that movie and some kids died from a chopper crashing?
Please Mr. Francis Ford Coppola, make a Godfather part 4 with Talia Shire as the Godfather and Kay finally with the program.
Someone should remake Glitter into a cinematic masterpiece instead of shitting all over movies that are seriously good. I bet this version of Poltergeist will feature a haunted Blackberry or some stupid shit like that. The daughter will be a teenage whore with fake tits and the poltergeist activity scenes will feature heavy product placement.

How sad, remakes of classics. Doesn't this generation of writers have any fresh ideas or are they just to spoiled to think.
What will they remake next, "The Wizard of Oz" starring Will Smith?
severely annoying
Ugh, this makes me sick. Hollywood is now obviously the home of only vapid, money grubbing morons. Vaporize it!!!
Is it really that difficult to come up with a fresh movie idea? I suppose it's much easier to screw up a classic movie than to actually think of a new concept.

Considering the drug haze that will surround the film and the set, a dangerous and unwise situation to begin with, and considering the power of invocation generated by so many minds all concentrating on the idea of evil entities, and considering the karma that will result from deliberately instilling fear into the minds of millions of people, then it might be a lot better to cancel the project and just do a remake of Bambi.

"If Mr. McMurphy doesn't want to take his medication orally, I'm sure we can arrange that he can have it some other way. But I don't think that he would like it."
No. Just no.
It was impressive how Spielberg threw in all these funny little things, and captured the tone of suburban life (the remote control wars between neighbors, leering contractors, burying dead petsand) and then made it really scary. There's so much packed into that movie. No one could do it better.
Michael Phelps is my favorite player. By the way, I saw his profile on millionaire&celeb dating site """""C e l e b C u p i d.c o m"""""" last week. It is said he is only intersted in dating wealthy young women on that site.
I wish they'd remake a movie that sucked, rather than a classic.
Idiots.
