OVERVIEW: Home is where the horror is in the terrifying fan-favorite PET SEMATARY, rising up on Blu-ray for the first time on October 2, 2012 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Written for the screen by internationally renowned author Stephen King and based on his sensational book, PET SEMATARY tells the story of Louis and Rachel Creed and their two children, an average family who move into an idyllic home in the countryside to begin what promises to be a perfect new life. Unfortunately, their dream home sits next to a pet cemetery with a horrible and dark secret. When a family tragedy causes Louis to become unhinged with grief, he pays a visit to the cemetery and unleashes an unspeakable evil on the world. Arriving just in time for Halloween, the suspenseful and terrifying PET SEMATARY is an ideal addition to every horror collection.
The PET SEMATARY Blu-ray includes commentary by director Mary Lambert, a guided tour of the frightening locations led by author Stephen King along with an exploration of the origins of the novel, an introduction to the cast and characters, and a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the film.
SYNOPSIS: After moving to an idyllic home in the countryside, life seems perfect for the Creed family...but not for long. Louis and Rachel Creed and their two young children settle in to a house that sits next door to a pet cemetery - built on an ancient Indian burial ground. Their mysterious new neighbor, Jud Crandall (Fred Gwynne), hides the cemetery's darkest secret...until a family tragedy brings the secret to life. Now, an unthinkable evil is about to be resurrected. From STEPHEN KING, the Master of the Macabre, comes a journey that leads to hell and back. Though not everyone survives the trip. For the Creeds, home is where the horror is.
