The Creed family have just moved into their dream home. Everything is perfect…except for the semi-trucks that barrel down their narrow road and the Indian burial ground behind their house! Stephen King’s tale of horror was brought to the big screen back in 1989 and performed well at the box office. The cast includes Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby and Herman Munster himself, Fred Gwynn. Now, when I first saw this on the big screen, I was in high school and just finished reading the novel. I wasn’t known as a “reader” back in the 80’s, but King had me hooked on his every word. I couldn’t put it down. So, needless to say, I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, as it was about to open at the theatre I worked at. When opening day came, my friend Steve, the projectionist, offered to screen the film just for me before we opened the doors to the public. I took him up on his offer and watched Pet Sematary all alone, in the darkened 800 seat theatre. I really enjoyed it. Of course, it wasn’t nearly as good as the book, but few films are, right? That weekend we sold out every show and had lines stretching around the block. It was exciting! Those were the good ‘ol days as a teenager working at the movies.
