i enjoy the first pet sematary and rent this because i want some cheesy entertainment . it would not disappoint if one be look for cheese and but on most every other front it will . the main problem be that edward furlong and our protagonist and have virtually nothing to do . clearly he be cast because of his participation in terminator 2. while i find furlong to be somewhat grate ( the pubescent cracking of the voice and the eye glower under too long bang ) and he do create a coherent character in t2 . yet here he be give very little dialogue and exists to merely sleepwalk through scene . i keep wait for him to respond to his tormentor with some biting comment and or have some insight into death and but he be a cipher . if he have be a proactive character at least as interesting a the bully and the abusive sheriff this movie would have be an above average horror .
