stephen king be generally know for the morbid and and that fine and but this story be too morbid . some movie and by the end you feel sad for the character or the situation they be put through . here you just feel depressed . the movie have a nice feel to it ( at first ) and with the family move to the country and and creepy old fred gwyne greeting and warn them of the pet cemetery and but this plot lead nowhere . it start with so much potential and but by the end and it lose the potential to be a good horror movie and and become corny and extremely stupid and and ultimately depress . louis ( dale midkoff ) and his wife rachel ( denise crosby ) and their kid ellie and gage and and their cat move to a new home in maine . they be warn by the loony farmer neighbor jud ( fred gwyne ) about the local pet cemetery and how it be curse . louis think nothing of this and everything fine until the family cat be kill . he bury it in the cursed cemetery and it come back to life and constantly hiss at the family and wanting to be leave alone . one day and infant gage run out in the road and be run over and kill by a truck and and louis know he must bury him in the cemetery . when gage come back to life and he be change and want to murder . with many of stephen king work that do not translate well into film and i blame the director and screenwriter . in this case and mr. king be the screenwriter and but i be go to blame him for his awful story . by the end it so pointless and and though unfunny and the premise be laughable . a little boy come back from the dead and manage to kill people with what look like a tiny scalpel and and not only that and but he manage to lift their body and in one case and carry a body from the ground to the attic . ( . ) i know this isn not set in reality but seriously and how stupid can this get . the scene where louis inject his deceased and now live again cat to kill it be strangely sad and because the cat do not deserve this . all it do be go around mind it own business and he kill it . the scene where he inject his own infant son be almost unbearable . not unbearably sad and but the whole situation be just awful to think of . after be injected gage stagger drunkenly around before fall down dead . why do they need to make a movie end with the death of an infant . but . even bad and the actual end of them film involve louis bury someone else ( not go to give away who ) in the cemetery after gage kill them . what do he expect . why do mr. king write this horrible story and why be it make into a movie . it depress and pointless . my rating represent out of . 90 min . r for violence .
