Rating: Summary: Pretty good Review: I love this movie but I think part one blows it away. Even though this one has tragedy, part one was a little more dramatic. This one is not as scarey either. I recomend you see it atleast once!
Rating: Summary: Many cliches, but quite creepy nevertheless Review: I saw it on cable sometime around Halloween and though this little flick does have some yucky parts, it still has some Hollywood stereotypes like the female characters looking and acting more like ditzy teenaged sisters than real moms to the two young heroes in this story. And one of the kids (the chubby one) also bears a striking resemblance to Spanky McFarland, one of the Little Rascals. Though I didn't get to see the very beginning of the much-promised sequel to the original Pet Sematary, I did get to witness such gross and sometimes sadistic parts where the revived body of a dead dog wreaking a very bloody havoc at the veterinary, sobbing little boys struggling to bury the cold, gray coprse of "Spanky's" mean old cop stepfather, and the airheaded young stepmom's eye getting viciously gouged out by what looks just like the ghost of an old-time Hollywood starlet and things like that. Weird, but quite an interesting Halloween viewing nevertheless.
Rating: Summary: Okay low-budget horror flick Review: I still think the first one is better. The only thing that saves this movie from being a total disaster is Clancy Brown's effective performance as a creepy resurrected sheriff. Otherwise, it's a major waste. Disgusting animal cruelty ( unless you don't mind seeing kittens being ripped apart ), lack of character development and a good plot direction. Bad acting. Why couldn't Edward Furlong do better? Tsk, tsk, tsk..
Rating: Summary: Fantastic! Review: I think it's great! If you're having a boring evening, just run down to the video-store and get this film. It's better sounds and graphic quality than the original. But the original is scarier.
Rating: Summary: It will have you on the edge of your seat!!! Review: I'v seen this movie so many time and I still get scared when I watch it.It's better than the first.Edward Furlong gives a great performance.One of his best. "I'll Always Love Edward"
Rating: Summary: It's Better Than The First Review: I'v seen this movie so many times and I still get scared when ever I watch it.It's better than the first.Edward Furlong gives a great performance.One of his best. "I'll Always Love Edward"
Rating: Summary: cool... Review: It was scary...not as scary as the first one but it freaked me out...and Edward Furlong's hot so it's all good in the end LoL....
Rating: Summary: Overly disappointing sequel Review: It's amazing that with Mary Lambert at the helm of this sequel to her richly chilling adaptation of the Stephen King novel that this film is as emotionless and empty as it is. Anthony Edwards and Edward Furlong play a father and son who move near a familiar pet cematary after a tragic accident. There's no point in going into the overall story, because the screen writer sure didn't put too much thought into the story himself. Animals and people die, they get buried, and then they come back rather homicidal. This goes on for a while, with some nice gore effects, but it's all rather pointless. Clancy Brown (Highlander, HBO's Carnivale) is at his usual psychotic best, but he's lost in the middle of this schlock fest. All in all, this dismal sequel can't come close to how good the first film was, and is better left on the scrap heap.
Rating: Summary: It a "not so great" Sequel Review: Kinda disappointing when you compare to orignal....more gruesome TO gruesome!
Rating: Summary: What Is This? Review: Making a sequel to "Pet Sematary" was completely pointless. In other horror films, we learn new things about the villains in the sequels. But what are we to discover in this pathetic sequel, that some kids also know of the place on earth that raises the dead, even though in the first film and novel it was a place only the old folks new of. Instead of a failed attempt at remaking the similar kind of terror from the first film, they could have made a prequel or something about the origins of the place and how the Micmac Indians discovered the ground was "sour". Well, one good thing did come from this abomination of a sequel...it was so bad that its been 8 years and another installment hasn't been made!
