"Poltergeist" Remake begins Casting

Without Heather O'Rourke will this movie be able to succeed?

The very controversial remake of "Poltergeist" has officially began casting announcing Rosemarie Dewitt (Promised Land, AMC's Mad Men) has been cast for the leading female role in the film. Gil Kenan (Monster House) is set to direct from a screenplay by David Lindsay-Abaire (Oz The Great and Powerful). The film is being produced by Sam Raimi (Evil Dead) and Rob Tapert (The Possession) by Ghost House Pictures. 

Fans aren't happy to see this petrifying classic being dabbled with, which is completely understandable especially since Heather O'Rourke (Carol), the young girl that says "There Back" in the original classic died at only 12 years old. Fans are angry that they are going to ruin her memory with this new remake. With little hope, fans will just have to wait and see if this remake can pull it off.
