Pet Sematary: Bloodlines Review

Pet Sematary: Bloodlines uses the line, “Sometimes, dead is better.” three times. It’s one of the first bits of dialogue spoken in the opening narration, then a character says it during an action scene, and it’s the penultimate sentence before the credits. That bit of dialogue, made famous by Fred Gwynne in the original 1989 film, is a microcosm of the project. It’s a sad, lazy attempt to capitalize on love for a franchise that should have stayed buried.
