HOT 4K NEWS





THEY’RE HEERE.


Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is releasing “Poltergeist” (1982) written by Steven Spielberg and directed by Tobe Hopper with actors JoBeth Williams, Craig T. Nelson, Zelda Rubinstein, Beatrice Stright, and Heather O’Rourke.


Plus, Joel Schumacher’s teen vampire adventure “The Lost Boys” (1987) with Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Corey Haim and Corey Feldman. Both films will be released on September 20 and sourced from the original 35mm camera negatives and graded with HDR10, with no hint of Dolby Vision.





Suburbanites Steve (Nelson) and Diane (Williams) suddenly experience paranormal activity in their home. What starts off as minor excitement quickly turns into nasty ghostly encounters. The disappearance of their daughter Carol Anne (O’Rourke) forces the Freelings to bring in parapsychologists and a professional exorcist to exorcise their home. Directed by Tobe Hooper and featuring Oscar Nominated Visual Effects by Richard Edlund, Michael Wood and Bruce Nicholson, “Poltergeist” is one of the most entertaining horror films of its time.




When their parents’ divorce, Michael (Jason Patric) and Sam Emerson (Corey Haim) move with their mother to their grandfather’s house in a California town nicknamed, “The Murder Capital of the World.” Michael gets involved with a hell-raising motorcycle gang of vampires with a charismatic leader (Kiefer Sutherland). When Sam becomes involved with the Frog Brothers (Corey Feldman and Jamison Newlander), who confess to being undercover Vampire hunters, he realizes it’s up to them to save Michael and the town from the vampires.
