Editor's Notes

Note

S-Tier Warner Bros. 4K with a 4.5 score. Tobe Hooper's haunted house film, and the Best Buy steelbook art was widely hated. People said the iconic "girl in front of TV" image would have been far better. A Film Vault special edition with The Shining is coming in August 2025, and Shout Factory is releasing Poltergeist II in 4K. Some collectors have been disc-swapping their 4K into older steelbook shells with better art.
