Scream Factory raises Kane with new Blu-rays of POLTERGEIST II & III!

ON JANUARY 31ST, REVEREND KANE RETURNS IN SCREAM FACTORY'S NEW COLLECTOR'S EDITIONS OF BOTH "POLTERGEIST" SEQUELS!

POLTERGEIST is a timeless classic that still holds up quite well today. It's sequels... maybe not so much, but there's still plenty to love about them. And now you can enjoy both films in all new 2K transfers, with tons of cool extras! Yup, it looks like it's time for me to retire my current POLTERGEIST II & III double feature set for these bad boys!

POLTERGEIST II: THE OTHER SIDE
Synopsis: In this thrilling follow-up to the smash hit POLTERGEIST, the Freeling family (JoBeth Williams, Craig T. Nelson, Heather O'Rourke, Oliver Robins) settles into a new home following the annihilation of their former residence by terrifying visitors from the netherworld. 

But the spirits of the dead are still hell-bent on luring the family's clairvoyant daughter Carol Anne to "the other side." This chilling sequel, directed by Brian Gibson (BREAKING GLASS) also stars Will Sampson (ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO'S NEST), Julian Beck (THE COTTON CLUB) and Zelda Rubinstein (ANGUISH) returns as Tangina.
