I didn't mind the new Pet Sematary either up to a point.
In my mind neither films are perfect but the original is better.
For me the remake was well acted and atmospheric but the relationship with Louis and Judd is too rushed to have any impact, the story twist was pointless and the end pretty silly, also when i saw it in the cinema the Zelda part made me laugh.
The original has two wooden parents and a shit annoying spirit, but wins out with a great performance from Herman Munster, a great Church and a more emotional and disturbing ending with Gage.
Also Zelda is creepy as f*ck .
Remake 6.5/10
Original 8/10
