5.0 out of 5 stars Classic!
Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2023

"Poltergeist" is an absolute horror classic that has stood the test of time, leaving a lasting impact on the genre. With its masterful storytelling, captivating performances, and innovative special effects, the film delivers a thrilling and chilling experience that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats from start to finish.

The Freeling family's journey into the unknown is portrayed with genuine emotion, drawing audiences into their world and making them empathize with their struggles. The genuine bond between the family members adds a layer of authenticity to the story, making the supernatural events even more terrifying as they threaten to tear their lives apart.

One of the film's greatest strengths lies in its ability to balance horror and heart, creating moments of intense terror alongside poignant and heartfelt scenes. The iconic sequences, like Carol Anne's famous line "They're here," have become ingrained in popular culture and are still widely recognized and referenced to this day.

Furthermore, "Poltergeist" is notable for its groundbreaking special effects, especially considering it was released in 1982. The use of practical effects and puppetry adds a level of realism that modern CGI often struggles to achieve, making the haunting moments feel all the more authentic and spine-chilling.

The film's direction by Tobe Hooper and production by Steven Spielberg resulted in a perfect collaboration that showcases their collective talents. The director's ability to build suspense and create a creepy atmosphere is brilliantly complemented by Spielberg's signature touch of heartwarming family dynamics.

In conclusion, "Poltergeist" remains a timeless masterpiece that deserves its place among the greatest horror films of all time. Its combination of frights, family drama, and superb storytelling sets a standard that continues to inspire filmmakers and thrill audiences decades after its initial release. Whether you're a seasoned horror enthusiast or a casual moviegoer, "Poltergeist" is an absolute must-watch for its captivating storytelling, exceptional performances, and unforgettable scares

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Homage to Cheesy 80's Horror
Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2021
Verified Purchase
Okay, I know that a lot of the reviews for this remake have panned the acting and the writing, but honestly, I think it's because so many viewers are either too young or have forgotten the awesomeness of 80's horror. It IS cheesy. It's supposed to be. The acting and writing aren't actually bad at all, but most of the dialogue is set-up to make those cheese-filled moments of deliciousness happen. And the actors delivered every single morsel with verve! Also, the special effects were pretty great. Better graphics (although not super), with little touches that reflected back to the original (GOO!!!).

But this movie definitely harkens back to a more "innocent" horror time. Now, most of the movies coming out are explicit in their violence, the supernatural aspects and emotion taking a back seat to the blood and gore. I'm okay with that. I like those movies too! This isn't one of those. It's like a less scary Conjuring with the feel-good ending and the little touches thrown in to pay respect to the original.

If that's not your jam, I completely respect that, but to say this movie isn't good just isn't true. All-in-all, I really enjoyed it. And I could do an ENTIRE movie with Jared Harris's Carrigan Burke and Jane Adams' Dr. Powell. They were, as always, stellar.

3.0 out of 5 stars Why?
Reviewed in Australia on September 6, 2019

A review of the 3D presentation...

First up, why? If you’re a fan of the 1982 Steven Spielberg produced original film you know this story well and not much has been changed with the remake. Obviously lots of updated CGI effects is one reason for the re-do but apart from that I’m struggling to find another reason this was green-lit. It’s not a bad movie but so similar to the original I don’t really know why they bothered and honestly the original is a far far scarier affair.

The 3D version is mostly about a sense of depth rather than too many pop out moments which you would think a movie like this would revel in. For this reviewer I really wouldn’t bother with the 3D version and as an added bonus (if you can call it that) the 2D presentation offers an extended cut of the film but the regular 90 minutes is more than enough. Maybe rent or stream this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ein Horrorklassiker der 80er-Jahre in neuem Gewand...
Reviewed in Germany on November 1, 2015
Verified Purchase
ZUM FILMHISTORISCHEN HINTERGRUND:

Da Remakes von Horrorklassikern aus den 80er Jahren in letzter Zeit sehr in Mode gekommen sind ("The Thing", "A Nightmare on Elmstreet", "Evil Dead") war es nur eine Frage der Zeit bis sich irgendwann und irgendwer auch Tobe Hoopers Gruselklassiker "Poltergeist" vornehmen würde. So geschah es dann auch und kein Geringerer als Sam Raimi nahm sich der Sache als Produzent an, um das Original in einem neuen Gewand zu präsentieren. Der Inhalt ist dabei freilich derselbe geblieben wie damals: Eine junge, amerikanische Durchschnittsfamilie zieht mit ihren drei Kindern in eine kalifornische Vorstadtidylle und wird kurz darauf von unheimlichen und furchteinflößenden Erscheinungen heimgesucht. Lediglich der damalige Vollbild-Röhrenfernseher musste einem Widescreen-Flat-TV weichen und die älteste Tochter führt nun nicht mehr endlose Gespräche mit ihrer besten Freundin via Telefon, sondern über Skype am Smartphone. Ach, ja: Das geistige Jenseits wird nun mit einer am Tablet gesteuerten Drohne erkundet, um die verschollene Tochter wiederzufinden. Ansonsten ist alles beim Alten geblieben. Dennoch besticht das Remake durch action- und effektgeladene Spannung, die dem Original eigentlich um nichts nachsteht, sieht man einmal vom Charme der frühen 80er ab, den das Remake aufgrund seines zeitgemäßen Gewands und Zeitgeists natürlich nicht einzufangen vermag. Doch dieser Umstand soll den Unterhaltungswert nicht trüben.

ZUM BILD:

Das Bild liegt im Format 2,40:1 mit einer detailscharfen 1080p-Auflösung vor und besticht durch eine sehr kräftige Farbgebung und durch einen guten Kontrast. Das Blu-ray-3D-Set enthält sowohl die 2D- als auch die 3D-Kinofassung des Spielfilms. Am Bild gibt es daher nichts auszusetzen. Das 3D-Bild wurde zwar nachträglich konvertiert, verfügt aber über eine gut ausgeprägte Tiefenwirkung und hat sogar das eine oder andere Popout zu bieten.

ZUM TON:

Der Ton liegt in der englischen Originalfassung im Format DTS 7.1 HD-MA vor. Lediglich bei der deutschen Synchronfassung muss man sich mit einem DTS 5.1-Sound begnügen. Allerdings ist selbst dieser außerordentlich wuchtig ausgefallen und reicht aus, um den Zuschauer bei manchen Szenen den kalten Schauer über den Rücken zu jagen.

ZUR AUSSTATTUNG:

Das Bonusmaterial ist leider etwas mager ausgefallen. Zu sehen gibt es lediglich den originalen Kinotrailer, eine Bildergalerie und ein alternatives Ende des Films. Äußerst löblich ist allerdings, dass dem 2-Disc-Set der "Extended Cut" des Films beigefügt wurde, der um 7 Minuten länger ist als die Kinofassung. Diese Langfassung ist allerdings lediglich in 2D, nicht in 3D zu sehen, bietet aber eine vollständige deutsche Synchronisation.

FAZIT:

Das Remake von "Poltergeist" wurde von Kritikern und vom Publikum sehr gemischt aufgenommen. Dies mag vielleicht daran liegen, dass dem Remake der Charme der frühen 80er Jahre des Originals fehlt, wozu seinerzeit maßgeblich Steven Spielberg als Produzent beitrug. Wer darauf verzichten kann und die Story gerne einmal in einem zeitgenössischen Gewand neu erleben möchte, ist mit diesem Remake gut bedient und sollte sich dieses 3D-Doppel-Set nicht entgehen lassen, das übrigens auch ein Wendecover ohne FSK-Logo und eine Ultra-Violet-Kopie für Mobilgeräte mit an Bord hat.

P.S.: Im Remake wurde übrigens eine originelle Hommage an das Original versteckt: Der Sohn der Familie gräbt im Garten des Hauses die verwesten Knochen des Kanarienvogels "Tweety" aus, den damals die Hauptdarstellerin Carol Anne im Originalfilm von 1982 vergraben hatte...
