Editor's P/S
As a fan of the original Poltergeist film, I am both excited and apprehensive about the upcoming TV series. On the one hand, I am thrilled to see the story continue and to learn more about the world of the film. On the other hand, I am worried that the series will not live up to the original.
The original Poltergeist film was a classic for a reason. It was a well-made film with a great story, strong characters, and some truly iconic scenes. I am not sure if a TV series can capture the same magic. However, I am willing to give it a chance. I am hopeful that the showrunners will be able to create a series that is both faithful to the original film and also fresh and exciting.
