“Sometimes dead is better.”
Paramount Pictures has released the final trailer for “Pet Sematary.” This will be the second feature film based on Stephen King’s seminal 1986 novel. The first, released in 1991, was directed by Mary Lambert and starred Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby, and Fred Gwynne.
The 2019 adaptation 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. “Pet Sematary” opens this Friday.
