Poltergeist Writer Against The Wall

Michael Grais, writer of Poltergeist and Poltergeist II: The Other Side, now has a producer credit notch to add to his bed post; the thriller-horror film (as Variety calls it), The Wall.

Directed by long-time TV movie helmer Paul Schneider, The Wall is about a woman who returns to her home town in Maine when she learns that local realtors are attempting to sell the lighthouse she grew up in, where her mother was murdered. Her father was convicted of the crime. She soon learns, however, that a much darker force was responsible for the death and it’s all set to kill again if she doesn’t stop it.

The film is a ghost story, of course, but hopefully one with a somewhat interesting twist to it. Lindy Booth of Dawn of the Dead stars alongside James Thomas, Brad Hodder and Lawrence Dane.
