VHS Movie Reviews of Pet Sematary
Movie Review: Sometimes being dead is better.
Summary: 5 Stars
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.
