Pet Sematary

A family moves to a rural home beside a busy road and an ancient pet cemetery. When their cat dies, a grieving father follows a neighbor’s advice and discovers that the nearby burial ground may return what has been lost—but at a troubling cost.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy bleak, atmospheric 1980s horror about grief and impossible choices, especially films like Cujo; Not for you if dated effects, uneven acting, or child-focused peril are deal breakers.
