Product Description:
For most families, moving is a new beginning. But for the Creeds, it could be the beginning of the end. Because they’re just moved in next door to a place that children built with broken dreams, the Pet Sematary. It’s a tiny patch of land that hides a mysterious Indian burial ground with the powers of resurrection. Master of the Macabre, Stephen King, will take you and the Creeds to hell and back. (But the Creeds don’t have return tickets.) Your tour guide is kindly old Judd Crandall (Fred Gwynne), the neighborhood nice guy who knows the secrets of life, but has seen enough to firmly believe that "sometimes dead is better."

 Need to clear things up for some people..., 2008-11-07
Okay after reading a few reviews I felt the need to put some information in here so maybe some people can understand some things they didn't in the movie. Since it's based upon the book (which I have read) it is for the most part true to the book, but there is some things I have noticed that are not cleared up and some people are confused on, yes it really doesn't have much to do with the Pet Sematary, but this whole story was written based upon King's own experience, in the introduction of my book he tells about how this story came to be. He had moved to Maine to work at the university, and they lived along side a road just as bad as in the book, his son actually did almost make it into the road where a big 18 wheeler was well on its way but luckily for him he says either his son fell before he made it to the road or he pulled him back just in time but fear makes you forget these things. So there is where gage comes into play, as for church, kings daughters cat died while they were there and he heard strange popping in the garage where he found his daughter stomping on the clear bubble packing screaming "he was my cat, he was mine, why did god take him he was mine, god could have his own, not mine" and king thought this to be the purest reaction to death. Anger. A pet cemetery really existed near their house and it was written "pet sematary" so this is where that also came in and how it became the title. King then took these events and pushed it to the worst scenarios and the "what if" factor and actually didn't publish it for 3 years after writing it because he was so disturbed by what he had wrote. As for how they were coming back, it is explained to be the wendigo who soured the ground, and if you're touched by the wendigo you begin to have a cannibalistic trait, explaining why church had a new found love of ripping animals apart, and why gage insisted on biting on necks and eating his mothers face. So i hope this cleared things up for everyone and can help you appreciate just how great of a movie and book this really is. It's insane, and commendable for king to push himself this far when it has to do with his own family, that makes you connect with it so much more.
