Critics Consensus

Not realizing that it had no unfinished business, Pet Sematary rises from the grave once more to beat an undead corpse.

Alec B

The original may have been a failed adaptation but it at least preserves some of the elements that made the novel unique. This sequel turns King's concept into a predictable slasher. The director seems to have dealt with this inevitability by sticking in as many sick jokes as possible and while none of them are all that funny, I do kind of get it.

One dimensional acting from main character and mirrors his debut acting role in many ways. School bullies and young animals leads to uncomfortable watching at times.

The best thing the movie has going for it is the acting, but it's not the fun sort of cheese, and it doesn't go well with the mashed potatoes or bunny stew.

Pet Semetary Two is aimed at an audience too young to see it without accompanying adults. They may dig it, but I nearly died of boredom.

Film Frenzy

Stephen King, who usually doesn't mind his name attached to any form of cinematic garbage, had it successfully removed from the credits of this picture, which should alert any potential viewer to tread carefully.

Flickering Myth

Better-acted than the original and not without its perverse charms - mostly of the Clancy Brown variety - but a shameless cash-in sequel for the most part.

For now, though, it's time for Hollywood to lay this whole burial ground theme to rest.
