Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Pluskylang Great Film overall

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

classicsoncall It occurred to me after watching this film that given the premise of the original "Pet Sematary", you could come up with a hundred sequels and take any sort of characters in any direction you wanted to. Which looks like what they did here, bringing the locale of the story back to the prior movie and using the old Indian burial ground as the method of resurrecting animals and people back to life. This one was about as creepy as the first picture, maybe even a bit gorier, what with those skinned rabbits hanging out there on the cage and Gus (Clancy Brown) hacking away to his heart's content. Check me on this, but what did wife Amanda (Lisa Waltz) ever see in that creep to get married a second time? With a dismal soundtrack and the recycled 'dead is better' line, I was appreciative of the fact that Stephen King didn't have anything to do with this picture. That 'I Wanna Die' song especially was enough to bring anyone down. Still, I thought Chase Matthews (Anthony Edwards) had a pretty good line when he asked Sheriff Gus - "Why did you dig up my wife?" It sounded almost like something Henny Youngman would have come up with.

Leofwine_draca This is a grisly-gory follow-up to the original Stephen King adaptation, with director Mary Lambert returning for a second helping of reanimated hijinks. I'm not sure why she bothered – it's clear that this is a cash-in sequel through and through, with a threadbare plot devoid of real characters and no real effort made other than to roll out content we already saw in the first movie.The plot is simplicity in itself. Eddie Furlong and Anthony Edwards move to the original's small town, and pretty soon a friend's dog gets killed and is brought back to life in the sinister pet cemetery. Before long, folk start dying, and the focus is on horror and suspense sequences: family members stalked by a sinister zombie, nightmarish scenes of nude women with dog's heads, burning set-pieces, and brutal murders. Between such events, there's nothing going on, leaving us just to sit back and wait for the next gross-out. The FX are all of those rubbery early '90s look, with bodies being drilled, people made up with bloody torn wounds and a general air of menace and decrepitude. One of the stand-out scenes involves a kid having his head pulled into a revolving motorbike tyre, but this was copied from and done better in the '80s slasher film, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME.The cast has a few fairly recognisable faces in it. Edward Furlong was straight out of TERMINATOR 2, so he's the instant draw for 99% of viewers. Anthony Edwards soon went on to stardom in TV series E.R., so many will also know him. Clancy Brown is a B-movie favourite (ever since playing the Kurgen in the original HIGHLANDER), and he's well cast as the villain of the piece, complete with a throaty chuckle and a line in the blackest comedy. There's a little role for Darlanne Fluegel, too, but that's about it. To be fair, there isn't a great detail here that I hadn't seen before. The only part I liked was the chase leading up to the potato truck scene, which I thought was well handled and genuinely surprising. Other than that, it's par for the course, an amalgamation of unstoppable villains, ghostly apparitions, bullies and death.

bowmanblue Yes, after 'Terminator 2' it seemed that Edward Furlong was going to be the next 'big thing' in Hollywood. Unfortunately, due to his own personal demons, that never happened and he's remembered more as someone who could have had it all, rather than an A-list actor. However, before he went off the rails, he made 'Pet Sematary 2' and it's not that bad (especially for a sequel).The original 'Pet Sematary' was based on Stephen King's book of the same name and was a pretty dark and bleak little affair. The sequel's tone does its best to follow that, but does tend to succumb to a few clichés which do bring it down a bit. Edward Furlong and his dad move to the same town where an old Indian burial ground brings anything interred there back from the dead (with the only drawback being that they're borderline psychotic and largely lethal). Before long, circumstances spin out of control and every man and his dog is being buried there... and therefore coming back ready to murder anyone that stands in their path.It's no classic, but there are a few quite creepy scenes (even if you can tell it's just someone in a monster mask, it's shot well enough to be a bit disturbing). Also, Clancy Brown does stand out as pretty damn nuts as the local lawman.It's not as good as the first, as it's not as bleak, plus I mentioned the clichés – i.e. new family in a town, meets bullies at school and so on. However, based on the fact that most sequels to horror films are largely not even worth putting on, this one is actually pretty good.

galaxychoco OK now i know that a lot of people hated this movie but i thought it was good i prefer to watch this one compared to the original one if i am honest. Anyway acting could have been better storyline was more or less kind of the same (people and animals die are buried then come back)the movie does flaw in places but then again no movie is perfect. I also found that this one was easier to follow than the first one was so with that being said i would rate this movie a 7 out of 10. And apparently i have to write 3 more lines ummm cant really think of anything to say but i think that its pretty stupid you should just be able to write what you want then post in instead of having to drag it out for 10 lines.
