31 Days of Horror: Pet Sematary




Pet Sematary.  The soil of a man’s heart is stonier.  Creepy Indian burial grounds, cats, Herman Munster, and spinal meningitis.  This combination makes for one incredible movie.  This movie is full of people and animals rising from the dead, incredibly disturbing sister-monsters, and people getting hit by trucks while they are jogging.  Still the most disturbing part of this movie is when the cat dies.  It gets me every time.  Did they just kill the cat for the movie? Either they killed the cat or they got the Tom Hanks of cats because he is one heck of an actor. This movie does a good job of showing you that children will make you lose your mind. But no matter how crazy you are, you will never get along with the dead unless you are dead too. The best part of this movie is when the baby boy shows how much he wants to be like his father by playing doctor with the neighbor.  Like father like son. It truly is heart warming.  Because of Gage’s last second attempt at being a playful kid, I give this movie respectable 7 out of 10 stars. I want to leave you with one last word of advice. Remember, sometimes dead is better.
