Don't listen to the negative reviews

Best movie ever!

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The sequel to Stephen King's "Pet Sematary" needed to be pretty good, given it's a spin-off from a book/movie by America's most prolific novelist/movie writer. We learn in the first scenes that this B-movie actress is separated from her husband, and very close to her young teen son. A little more exposition on why would've helped. After her death, father and son move back to their home town in -- you guessed it -- Maine. Good move making the dad a vet. His new friend has an abusive stepfather who used to date the late mom, and scene- stealer Clancy Brown does very well as Gus. School bullies, an undead dog, crazy cop, and that sour ground from the first movie add up to a comedic splatterfest, in spite of Edward Furlong's shortcomings in the funny department. Less than a decade earlier Anthony Edwards was the comedic foil to Tom Cruise in the macho classic "Top Gun", but here he plays it too straight. The major drawback to the film is, as I've written before, the Ramis Effect (making a wonderful movie and running out of ideas for the third act). Although he had nothing to do with this film/screenplay, Stephen King has suffered the Ramis Effect before: Okay, we know why Gus dug up the kid's mom, but it's just creepy and wrong that the kid helped things along, made up the attic, and seemed to have gone to the Dark Side with no explanation. Then the undead mom isn't played as a zombie cannibal as with Gus and the first movie people, but as a calculating vampiress type. Finally, it's almost never a good idea to kill a nice kid. The mother and son under the spuds could've been comatose....

PS2 is a sequel I like, nastier than the first, some thanks to some really unpleasant characters, one being a teen bully, Clyde, a standout performance, while another originally bad dude who's possessed, is that of local copper, Clancy Brown. It has shocking and refreshing catalyst, where Furlong's star Mum (Fluegel) is horribly electrocuted at the start, so Furlong and Dad, (Edwards (Top Gun-Goose) a vet- what a coincidence move to the wrong town, where the story of the original is redone, but a spin has been put on it. Furlong making a new friend, tries to resurrect his cat on an Indian burial ground, and guess what happens. More violent than the first, again there's a not so happy ending, but I so like this nastier film, where Brown and Clyde, are unforgettable. For fans of the first, PS 2 is a good sequel, that really works, and should not be overlooked.

Jeff (Edward Furlong) loses his famed-actress mother Renee Hallow in a movie set accident. He is forced to move with his father Chase Matthews (Anthony Edwards) to their summer home away from L.A. New housekeeper Marjorie Hargrove (Sarah Trigger) is also a fan of Renee. Chase reopens the rundown animal hospital. Gus Gilbert (Clancy Brown) is the local sheriff and Renee's high school boyfriend. His stepson Drew is Jeff's only friend. Jeff gets picked on by bully Clyde Parker (Jared Rushton) and his friends who direct him to the Pet Sematary.This could easily be dismissed as ready for burial. The script is derivative. None of the characters are compelling. I like Edward Furlong but he's not enough. Jared Rushton's bully character is really one-dimensional and annoying. Same goes for the great Clancy Brown. He's capable of so much more. As a horror, it's not scary. This is a weak B-movie.

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.
