SOURCE-DVD
I am sure I saw this back in the day. More than likely in a 2 year period where I got cheap/free rentals from a video store. But when I put the movie on I remembered nothing about it.
Ed Furlong is the son of a actress. He is on the set of her newest film and watches as she accidentally gets electrocuted on set. And wow is it brutal. Which leads to his father taking him and moving from California all the way to Maine. His dad is Anthony Edwards and is a vet.
In this new town of course Ed stands out. Making just one friend,a local fat kid with a POS step dad. This step dad is a local cop and played by the great Clancy Brown. The POS Step Dad shoots and kills the fat kid's dog Zowie. So of course Fat Kid and Ed go bury Zowie in the Pet Sematary and big surprise the dog comes back to life.
Shit happens and the step dad dies and gets buried and comes back. And that is when the film just goes off the rails. Clancy is amazing in this role and single handedly saves this movie.
I had heard for years how this was horrible,and it could be,if not for Clancy Brown. Him as the piece of shit cop saves this movie. He is so over the top and appears to be having a blast. Like in the scene where he kills a kid using a motorcycle tire.
Sure this ain't a classic like the original. It is still one of the best sequels to a Stephen King movie.
Pet Sematary II gets a C+
