Pet Sematary (1989)
Country: US
Technical: col 103m
Director: Mary Lambert
Cast: Dale Midkiff, Fred Gwynne, Denise Crosby
Synopsis:
Truck drivers using a town's main highway as a speed track gives rise to an unprecedented number of pet deaths. But the neighbourhood already has a pet cemetery, and a more sinister Indian burial ground.
Review:
Grisly shocker with a typically Kingian progressive logic to it, and a moral of sorts around how to face death when it comes: sometimes it's best not to reverse it even if given the chance, at least this is a nightmare version of the consequences of such a remedy. It takes a while to get going and these tricks are getting a little tired on film by now.
