Creepy

The remake is absolute mince. Avoid. The Dead Zone is highly recommended, and the 79 Salem's Lot is essential and great.

what the book makes more clear the pet sematary calls people to it. it's like you can't help passing the evil need to go up there on. it almost posesses you to do that.

@43:22 _I was a bit impressed at how new it felt._ I saw this movie in Iraq 4 months after it was made, i.e. Autumn1982. I loved it thoroughly & didn't care the critics roasted it to oblivion. I even bought a VHS copy of it in xmas same year and continued showing it to all my friends & relatives They called me a freak for loving such an ugly film. The Thing grew gradually to become a cult film in the early 1990s & then the fame exploded that it became a classic. In short it is satisfying to be validated over 40+ years.

Stella you have to understand that the "person" who died "their soul" has passed on .. what's inside is SOMETHING EVIL... even though they're wearing the person that DIED....That person is gone...

OH GOD THIS MOVIE HAS ONE THE MOST TERRIFYING SCENES AND IT'S NOT THE DEAD RETURNING.... IT'S THE MOTHER'S SISTER ZELDA

Stranger Things took parts of their inspiration from this...

The mother plays as Commander Tasha Yhar on Star Trek The Next Generation... If YOU WANT TO JUMP ON THE STAR TREK GANRE MAKE SURE YOU START WITH THE ORIGINAL TV SERIES AND THEN THE MOVIES BECAUSE THEY'RE CHRONOLOGICALLY IN ORDER STAR TREK TV SERIES (Captain Kirk) STAR TREK THE MOTION PICTURE STAR TREK II THE WRATH OF KHAN STAR TREK III THE SEARCH FOR SPOK STAR TREK IV THE VOYAGE HOME STAR TREK V THE FINAL FRONTIER STAR TREK VI THE UNDISCOVERED COUNTRY AT THIS POINT THE CENTURY BETWEEN THE TWO JUMP 20 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION (Seven seasons of this Show) STAR TREK GENERATIONS STAR TREK FIRST CONTACT STAR TREK INSURRECTION STAR TREK NEMESIS

@29:27 _Are you okay? The "Thing" can only *immitate biological matter* & never inanimate objects such as a prosthetic limb, tooth retorative filling or a glass eye. *Norris* (the geologist) has a *prosthetic heart-valve* which obviously isn't cloned when the thing attacked him. Therefor his thing-clone constantly got *heart attacks.* The fact that the thing only immitates "biomatter" gives us furthermore a *clue* as to who might be a copy or not, like for instance *Child's earring* later in the movie.

If you don't recognize the BABY that Dillion from NEW NIGHTMARE

SOMETIMES.... DEAD IS BETTA

Haley and Stella im a big Stephen King fan have all his films i recommended Dolores Claiborne, Misery. Kathy Bates has a great performance in both films you wont be disappointed

Has anyone ever theorized that the original crew of the flying saucer wasn't "the thing". That the crew of the saucer became infected themselves and thats why they crashed in the first place?

It's a good movie, 80s movies are always better. The effects are actually good, and I prefer them to modern efforts. The second one is fun also, and worth watching.

You girls don't really get this film's masterful acting, directing, pacing, cinematography and more and its power in portraying psychological horror.

Little Gage Creed was portrayed by the now 38 year old actor Miko Hughes!!!!😉

When your neighbor tells you 'sometimes dead is better' and a dead patient of yours tells you 'the ground is sour', then those words should sink into your mind and soul as fair and helpful warnings. But having placed your daughter's cat and your recently deceased toddler son into the soil of a sacred Native American burial ground, though.... That particular part of The Lord's Prayer, 'lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil' is COMPLETELY out of the window!!!!!

When you guys got the Greek Chorus part 😹😻😹💜😹

As sad as the movie is, the book is absolutely soul crushing. It was technically a very good horror novel but I'd never read it again. The grief and despair the characters suffer through is just too much. 😢💔

Ladies I assume I don't have to tell you that if your presented with a pet semetary like option not to take it. You can't be caught fuckin around with undead.

Do you take requests?

I hope you watched the credit scenes, they show the actual people the actors portray, and it’s amazing how spot on they are. And the “counterintelligence expert” is just as weird and clueless as in the film.

Please watch the 2011 movie. It's actually not as bad as people say. It's a prequel to this movie, and the directors did a pretty spot on telling of how the events unfolded at the other camp. It's not a perfect movie, but it's still pretty damn good. I'm sure you've heard it has bad CGI, which is true, but it's not at the fault of the team behind the movie. Screen testers and studio suits forced them to change from the practical effects to CGI, which was really sad. They actually did build out a lot of the practical effects for the movie, you can find test footage/ behind the scenes of the work in various videos online, they looked amazing, and they weren't even finished. I feel if the studio didn't interfere The 2011 version would be just as respected as the original.

Stephen King almost had this happen to his own son only he caught his son at the last second

A favorite Stephen King adaptation is the creature feature, GRAVEYARD SHIFT (1990), check that one out.

Zelda still scares me 35yrs on. Gage was also in Kindergarten Cop, Mercury Rising, and Wes Craven's New Nightmare.

"All the effects are bad" hope she means the CGI based stuff because the 80s was top tier practicals and make-up

Yesss!! Pls watch more Stephen King! My favorite is The Secret Window with Johnny Depp, its so good me and my mom always go all out and have to make corn on the cob to eat for dinner while watching lmao. If you know you know😂 Gatta watch it eventually not many people have reacted to it if any! That and maximum overdrive is also a really good one.

lol since when are 80's effects bad? lol

i think when it flashed on gages pictures after he died it was the dad flashing on gages birth etc.

Fun fact: The new Pet Sematary was a sequel to We Bought a Zoo.

Awesome reaction/ can you please watch a movie called THINNER.

Watched this fairly young. The scenes with zelda traumatized me. Has dreams about that for a few weeks

This is my favorite type of horror. The type of horror where the supernatural element is introduced to serve the emotional core of the story. An emotional core that is universally relatable: dealing with the trauma and grief of losing a loved one, and the despicable things a human would do in the misguided hope of getting that happiness back. Slasher horror, body horror and other types in the horror genre are all cool and serve their own purpose for entertainment. But I love a horror with a good story and meaningful themes behind it.

Oh, and Ellie is returns in book called: "Dreamdoctor" as a nurse. Doc is the adult Danny from Shining.

Jud's dog or Church - or any animal - has been NEVER an evil creatures, just a little bit "different" after re-born: calm, slow, moving like a drunk. Ok, except the bull :D In the movies this is a misstatement because of the creepiest area :) But humans were possessed by wendigo (this is a demon).

Watch the orinial The Stand miniseries. It's a good movie adaptation.

What yyou have to ask is what happens next. Does "mom" go get her daughter or have her brought home?

The "No fair, no fair" was great. 😂

I can highly recommend these movies The Grudge (2004) and Frozen (2010) not the Disney movie

fun fact, amy irving (sue snell) does the singing for jessica rabbit in who framed rodger rabbit

Thanks!

It's scary. But what's "funny" is that there is a scene in Pet Sematary 2 that scared me even more (when I was a child). Spooky.

I saw this in theatres when it first came out and, at the time, little demonic possessed kids were TERRIFYING thoughts to me... so it got to me. I've had several friends who're quite traumatized by this film (it was the scariest sh*t they'd ever seen up to that point) ... it wasn't so much SCARY as disturbing to me. (But I'd been reading Stephen King books since I was a pre-teen... so in '89, I had just graduated high school and Stephen King had already done as much damage to my brain/psyche as he was gonna do **LOL**) Fred Gwynn had been away from the public eye for years prior to this appearance (we grew up seeing him as Herman Munster on re-runs of THE MUNSTERS - so we were used to seeing him as a goofy comedic actor... prior to that, I think we saw him for all of 2 minutes at the end of Michael J Fox's film THE SECRET OF MY SUCCESS) ... So it was great seeing him in a larger role in this film. From what I hear ... none of the sequels are worth your time... but I haven't personally seen any of them. The trailer for the recent remake looked creepy as all hell.... but it got horrid reviews, so I didn't see that one either. Something more "fun" and light-hearted ... but in the same general horror-esq genre ... MY BOYFRIEND'S BACK ... WARM BODIES ... LOVE AT FIRST BITE ... ONCE BITTEN ... or TUCKER AND DALE VERSUS EVIL

There's a video game "sequel "

Dr. Sleep follows up with the kid from The Shining. It was a book in 2013 that turned into a movie in 2018

Just the people who were in on the prank were laughing, but Carrie's mind made her think everyone was laughing

Fun fact: Norma ( the girl in the red cap aka PJ Soles) was also in the 1978 version of Halloween

Another nice reaction guys. I was working in a video shop when this first dropped, from memory it didn't get a cinema release, in Australia at least, It was a popular horror video for hire right from the get go and I think it slowly gained cult classic stasis over the years for how effective it is. It's fondly remembered by horror enthusiast's Glad you guys caught it. It seemed to weave it's voodoo on you both, lol. looking at it again now it strikes me as shareing many themes with the short story "The Monkey's Paw" by English author W. W. Jacobs. It first appeared in Harper's Monthly in 1902. Hayley, the actor who played Jud is it Fred Gwen? Is probably best known as Herman Munster in the popular B&W TV comedy show "THE MUNSTERS" a Adams family rip off from back in the day. Thanks guys, see ya!

This movie overcomes budget and special effects limitations by setting the Creeds up as a wholesome and loveable family. First the movie makes you like them, then it destroys them. I think Judd has a New England accent, rather than a mid-Atlantic one.
