Now we see in detail how Pet Sematary‘s Jud Crandall came to the conclusion that sometimes dead is better.
In a new trailer for Paramount+ upcoming film prequel Pet Sematary: Bloodlines, Jud, portrayed in the 1989 original by Fred Gwynne and in the new movie, set in 1969, by Jackson White, has his first run-in with undead critters (and people). We even hear the classic “sometimes dead is better” quote again.
Based on Stephen King’s novel Pet Sematary, the new prequel will premiere Friday, October 6, exclusively on Paramount+ in the U.S., Canada, Latin America and Brazil, and Saturday, October 7, in all other Paramount+ international markets.
