Video Review – Pet Sematary: Bloodlines offers the franchise a much-needed reinvention

September 24, 2023 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno reviews Pet Sematary: Bloodlines…

We revisit Ludlow’s infamous haunted burial ground as Pet Sematary returns with a new prequel film. Pet Sematary: Bloodlines looks to reinvent the iconic Stephen King tale with a fresh new perspective from director Lindsey Anderson Beer. The first-time director makes a worthy entry into the pantheon of movies based on Stephen King’s work by allowing the story to have more to say.

While hesitation about watching yet another Pet Sematary makes sense, find out why critic EJ Moreno thinks this is a worthwhile watch during this year’s spooky season.

Check out the review below, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more reviews, exclusive interviews, and other video content…

In 1969, a young Jud Crandall is set to leave his hometown of Ludlow, Maine in search of his life’s purpose. Before he makes it out, however, Jud and his childhood friends encounter an ancient evil that has gripped Ludlow since its founding.

Pet Sematary: Bloodlines is the debut directorial effort from screenwriter Lindsey Beer (Chaos Walking) and stars Jackson White, Forrest Goodluck, Jack Mulhern, Henry Thomas, Natalie Alyn Lind, and Isabella Star LaBlanc, with Pam Grier and David Duchovny also featuring.

Pet Sematary: Bloodlines October 6th, exclusively on Paramount+.
