This week Derry Public Radio revisits the world of "Pet Sematary" with a dive into the recent adaptation, "Pet Sematary: Bloodlines". Join CM, Josh, and Eve as they dissect this prequel to the 2019 remake. Listen in as they explore the film's attempt to expand on Jud Crandall's backstory, the missed opportunities in storytelling, the strange motivations behind the characters, and the film's struggle to capture the essence of King's work. They also discuss the film's lack of emotional depth compared to the original source material and its failure to deliver on the promise of a compelling prequel. Amidst the critique, the hosts share their own creative pitches for stories within the "Pet Sematary" universe. Our dad is keeping us out of Vietnam for Episode 169, "Micmac Paddy Whack".
