Stephen King’s Pet Sematary | Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Stephen King’s Pet Sematary is a classic novel and film that takes our perpetual fears of loss, tragedy, and the undead and amplifies it to horrific proportions. The Creed family has relocated to a lovely new country home, unfortunately this home is adjacent to an Indian burial ground where if you bury your own, they will come back…but they always come back wrong!

Join us for this special episode as we take on the daunting task of remaking a film we genuinely like, and a book we definitely love. What elements of the book need to remain? What sections of the film just no longer work? Finally, what can we add to bring this brilliant tale into the now? Everything is on the table as we piece together our version of the film, and – as always – we cap it off with a Final Pitch, all of our choices presented to YOU in movie trailer form.

It’s time to ignore the warnings and venture beyond the gates onto some very sour ground.  Put aside your reservations and listen as we discuss Pet Sematary, because we’re going to Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Remake This Movie RIGHT! is a bi-weekly podcast where we take a classic film that is actively being remade by Hollywood studio execs, and craft our own version for a modern retelling. Does the story need updating? Should characters or motives be tweaked? Do we need more muppets? We take all factors into account, concoct our film, and then offer a Final Pitch to you in movie trailer form. By the end of each episode, we will Remake This Movie RIGHT!

Our show is broken down into three distinct parts:

The Original: We discuss the original film’s impact, some quick trivia bits, what worked the best from the film and therefore must remain in our upcoming remake, and what didn’t work or what needs to be changed for today’s audiences.

The Remake: We put together our movie! What story do we want to tell, how close to the original will it be, who will star, and ultimately who should direct our eventual cinematic masterpiece? Our hosts work together to put together one cohesive movie, but there is one caveat – Each host has one ‘CUT!’ throughout the episode to employ which could completely derail the entire film.

The Final Pitch: This is where we summarize our remake by utilizing the voice talents of voiceover artist Wayne Henderson and present our finished remake to you in movie trailer form!
