Takes place in 1969, when Jud Crandall (Fred Gwynne in the original) was a young man, and also delves into the origins of the pet sematary. In that, it presented some interesting ideas and concepts and I was enjoying the story but the problem was in the story telling. To take a group of individuals, who were supposed be the experts in this situation over the course of centuries, and make them completely and utterly stupid to provide us with a few kills is just lazy writing. Come on, you can do better than that. In the end, I didn't much care anymore. Rather silly really. -- DrNostromo
