First Trailer for the PET SEMATARY Prequel Movie PET SEMATARY: BLOODLINES
“Believe me when I say… Sometimes dead is better.”
Paramount+ has released the first trailer for Pet Sematary: Bloodlines, which is a prequel to Stephen King’s Pet Sematary, and it tells the untold of King’s horrifying novel.
The story is set In 1969, and it centers on a young Jud Crandall who “has dreams of leaving his hometown of Ludlow, Maine behind, but soon discovers sinister secrets buried within and is forced to confront a dark family history that will forever keep him connected to Ludlow. Banding together, Jud and his childhood friends must fight an ancient evil that has gripped Ludlow since its founding, and once unearthed has the power to destroy everything in its path.”
Jud’s backstory is something I’ve actually been very interested in and I like that this film is going to tell his story. There are a lot of stories to tell in Pet Sematary lore, and I’m curious to see how this one plays out. Judging from the trailer, the movie looks like it’ll be good!
Pet Sematary: Bloodlines stars Jackson White (Tell Me Lies, Mrs. Fletcher) Forrest Goodluck (The Revenant), Jack Mulhern (The Boys in the Boat, Mare of Easttown), Henry Thomas (The Fall of the House of Usher, Gerald’s Game), Natalie Alyn Lind (The Goldbergs, The Gifted) and Isabella Star LaBlanc (True Detective: Night Country), with Pam Grier (Cinnamon, Jackie Brown) and David Duchovny (The X-Files).
The film is directed by Lindsey Anderson Beer, in her directorial debut, with a script written by Beer and Jeff Buhler, and produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura.
Pet Sematary: Bloodlines will premiere Friday, October 6th, exclusively on Paramount+.
