pet sematary "remake" or update

[Moderator]

I would like:
- A remake of the first, with Stephen King keeping a close eye on the script and how the movie is made, ensuring it keeps the Stephen King feel.

Well, he did write the script for the first one but I'm not sure how much time he spent on-set as that was filmed just before I came to work here.

There could be things done right, and there definitely might be things that might go wrong with the remake. The original had a mood about it that most horror movies can't seem to capture any more. It's a shame, really.

I have a question! WHY????????? I like Aja, thought High Tension was awesome, but this remake trend is getting out of hand(hello Fright Night). Hey Hollywood, ever hear of overkill? For me personally, I highly enjoyed Pet Sematary the first time around, I'll just watch that again! FYI: There is a convention in Cincy called Horrorhound taking place in Nov and they're having a big PS cast reunion! Was going myself but now hoping to be in Dallas doing something else that same weekend!

I was just thinking the other day that I would really enjoy it if Pet Sematary was remade. Pet Sematary was the first Stephen King book that I ever read, and I really enjoyed reading the strong emotion and deep torment felt by the main character. However, I felt that the movie did a terrible job of conveying any sort of emotion, and just came off as cheesy and campy. I feel like a remake could really do the book the justice it deserves.
