Written by Scott Teems ( Halloween Kills) and directed by Keith Thomas ( The Vigil), the new Firestarter starts off with a promising bit of energy. But this second attempt, produced by Blumhouse and currently playing in theaters, is even worse than the 1984 Drew Barrymore–starring version. It seems as if somebody ought to be able to make a decent horror movie based on Stephen King’s Firestarter.
