Yet another horror remake (dont know why)
Seems that they are remaking Pet Sematary. Here is the link which does not give that much info at all
http://www.upcominghorrormovies.com/...etsematary.php
Has anyone heard about this? I never thought this movie was all that great to being with compared to the book

Instead of making all these adaptations of Steven King books that have already been adapted once, what they need to do is a Dark Tower miniseries. Sci-Fi Channel or HBO or somebody should do that like they did Taken; 20 hours, two weeks. I'd watch it.

Actually, it's a perfect candidate for a remake: a decent idea that was ineptly filmed the first time. I'd much rather see remakes of movies that blew it rather than ones that were done decently the first time out.

As for the Dark Tower. I would love it. And yes he has been done with it for a while. The final book comes out in a few short weeks.

I liked the original pet semetery too,in fact the flashback of rachel creeds sister is one of the more terryifying moments in screen history,almost everyone i have ever talked to about it has said that they where really creeped out by that scene,some even had nightmares over it,heck i even liked the sequel,

Actually, I don't have a prob. with PS. It was one of the first movies that really creeped me out. Watched it at like 4 in the morning with my little brother and a friend(early teens). It was quite freaky.
As for the Shining, Tarantino, some think it is a great movie. But as a translation of the book, it gets an F. The mini-series was excellent. Had it been done for HBO or cable where you could have some gore, it would have been perfect.
