Pet Sematary (2019)

Sometimes Dead Is Better

Based on the seminal horror novel by Stephen King, PET SEMATARY follows Dr. Louis Creed (Jason Clarke), who, after relocating with his wife Rachel (Amy Seimetz) and their two young children from Boston to rural Maine, discovers a mysterious burial ground hidden deep in the woods near the family’s new home. When tragedy strikes, Louis turns to his unusual neighbor, Jud Crandall (John Lithgow), setting off a perilous chain reaction that unleashes an unfathomable evil with horrific consequences.

“Directing duo Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer get everything absolutely right in their bone-chillingly effective new remake.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“Its terrifying story about death still leaves audiences with much to think about long after the credits roll, and the twists that lead to a new ending are fun to follow.” (The Wrap)

“Directors Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer make the tone just a little cheesy, as the premise deserves, but not overripe. The scares are easy — sometimes literally a cat jumping from the shadows — but cleanly done.” (Time Out)

“Stephen King’s scariest novel comes back to life in a killer-diller chiller that will make you jump out of your seat. It’s the stuff of nightmares. (Rolling Stone Magazine)
