Growing up, there were two movies that made it hard for me to sleep at night. "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" and "Poltergeist." As much as I would love to see a remake of "Killer Klowns," producer Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) is set to revive the "Poltergeist" saga this summer. The trailer has been released and I may or may not have soiled myself.

According to USA Today

Poltergeist has been rebooted with a new cast and a contemporary setting more than 30 years after the original made the suburbs feel unsafe. Director Gil Kenan (Monster House) was rocked by the original film and vows to get the contemporary version right when it hits theaters in 3-D on July 24, with a first trailer appearing Thursday.

"Whenever someone approaches material that's so beloved, there's a reflexive reaction to be worried," says Kenan. "It's a responsibility we take very seriously. We're working to make a Poltergeist film that lives up to the original's legacy."
