Sam Raimi To Breathe New Life Into ‘Poltergeist’

Sam Raimi jumped onboard to produce  MGM’s remake of the 1980s cult classic “Poltergeist.” The filmmaker, who got his start with the Evil Dead horror movies, steps into the shoes of Steven Spielberg, who produced and co-scripted from his original story.

Raimi has confirmed that, despite reports to the contrary, he will not be directing the film.
