This one is classic, and really overlooked. Proof positive that King movies own when converted well.

I loved the first one, and enjoyed the second one. Clancy Brown is great in the second film and reason enough to watch it. Love the scene where they're at the dinner table.

great movie - i agree that a lot of king books have made good movies eg carrie, the green mile. of course, not as good as the books - but that goes without saying.

I really liked pet sematary - it became more scarely though when we had to walk home from the cinema in the dark afterwards...and a cat crossed our path.

Thumbs up Pet Sematary...one of the best

Stephen King is the master at knowing what makes people feel creepy. I love not only his books, but those movies based on his books that are done well. The latter ones he had more to do with so they tended to be closer to the books.

I agree that Pet Sematary was among the best horror movies of the last 20 or 30 years (I don't try to rank them in order; there are just too many). I haven't seen the sequel. I may someday, but really not that interested.

If you haven't read the book, I urge you to do so; it's not that it's so much better than the movie, but if you know Stephen King, you know that he has a way of writing that gives you insight into what a character might be thinking, and some such things can't be brought out in a movie. Plus, he plays a masterfully mean trick with how he writes Gage's death. Brilliant! :eek:

I liked the book better, but the movie was still great.

This was the very first horror movie I ever saw by myself (I rented it because the book scared the living hell out of me) and I didnt realize until I really started to watch horror everyday, that this movie is a great one, an instant classic. And why not? It has Herman Munster himself!

It was good. The movie did the book much justice.

Hmmmm. i wonder what Stephen King's nightmares are.
