Watch: First Official ‘Poltergeist’ Remake Trailer and Poster

Fox has released the first official trailer for Poltergeist, a remake of Tobe Hooper‘s 1982 original directed by Gil Kenan (Monster House) starring Rosemarie DeWitt, Sam Rockwell, Jared Harris and Kyle Catlett with Sam Raimi aboard to produce the same way Steven Spielberg produced the original, but does this also give us an idea of what to expect?

Raimi also produced the remake of his very own Evil Dead, which many disliked, so how will he shepherd this story into existence for a new generation? Once again, the film tells the story of a family whose suburban home is invaded by angry spirits. When the terrifying apparitions escalate their attacks and take the youngest daughter, the family must come together to rescue her.

The film already has a PG-13 rating and will be hitting theaters on July 24. Check out the trailer and poster below and see what you think.
