Review of Poltergeist (2015) by Alonso Duralde for TheWrap — 18 May 2015
Poltergeist ultimately plays like the most perfunctory of remakes, one born of rights ownership and title marketability rather than a burning desire on anyone’s part to do something interesting or provocative with a classic.
The 1982 original remains unassailable, all the more so when stood side by side with its pipsqueak descendant.
