Pet Sematary (Special Collector's Edition)  Rating: Rating:  - Sometimes being dead is better.Pet Semetery is one of my favorite novels and the movie was fantastic, so it wasn't exactly like the book but then again who cares, some parts were still accurate like the scene with Zelda and the way Judd Crandell talked, I still ended up liking them both. Director Mary Lambert has a wonderful sense of visual style and manages to make this one of the few versions of King's stories that actually works and is quite creepy. Louis Creed (Dale Midkif) and his family have just moved into a new house planted right next to a road frequented by speeding trucks. When the family is away, Louis' cat is killed by one of the trucks and recognizing the family's love for the cat, Louis decides to bury the cat in the "Pet Sematary" the Indian burial ground hoping that the cat will come back to life. It does but the cat is now evil and definitely not out for love and affection, when Louis' son Gage (Miko Hughes)is killed he decides to do the same thing because he thinks he's found a way to save the corpses from the evil entity but when the son comes back to life it try's to kill mommy!. Overall Pet Semetery was a great and very creepy film and is definitely one of my favorites, it's a serious film with no cheese or silliness and the acting was convincing and very believable. I loved the story and how it dealt with loss, emotions and grief and how desperate some people get to have a loved one come back to life good stuff! also check out the scary scene where Rachel Creed tells the story about her sister Zelda who's suffering from meningitis with the creepy flashback, it was a very memorable scene. Anyway I highly recommend this film to horror fans but make sure you avoid that horrendous sequel. Rating:  - Pretty good modern horror filmDr. Louis Creed moves his entire family to a remote Maine town where he will be the physician for a local college. Over Thanksgiving, while his wife and children are visiting her parents, his daughter's cat is hit by a truck and killed on the road in front of his house. The road has had a history of taking the lives of beloved pets since the dawn of the automobile age. Louis' strange neighbor leads him to an ancient Indian burial ground where he is instructed to bury the cat. The next day, the cat appears alive in Louis' garage. Louis thinks he has spared his daughter the trauma of losing her cat. However, the cat's nature has changed. Now the animal delights in tormenting Louis with such gifts as a dead rat while Louis is soaking in the bathtub. You see, while the bodies of the departed return alive their souls are not those of the original owner. One malicious reincarnated cat can't do much harm, but Louis soon experiences the loss of a human member of his family and he is about to see just how malevolent the forces are that rule the old burial ground.

Winter Actors Dale Midkiff and Brad Greenquist, and Director of Photography Peter Stein The individual performances are good but not great, but the story is a creepy one told quite well with great atmosphere. Highly recommended. Rating: - Pet Sematary DVDThis is a classic Stephen King film! Ive been watching this since I was kid, its one of my favorites! Its two hours of surprises! This will keep you watching! Rating: - I like iti just recently saw this movie, i really enjoyed it, it was scary at parts, but i am sure that it lacked parts the book had as with all horror films. I often wonder how they could not keep an eye on gage, i mean he wandered to the road all the time, but hey,movies dont have to make sense. as for it being a pet sematary, the burial ground was near the CEMETERY....but over all it was a good film |
