We took a substantial amount of time off this last month and we had to come back to "Pet Sematary 2". While the original concept isn't a bad premise for a sequel, this film is not a worthy follow up in any way. "Pet Sematary 2" feels more like an animal snuff film than it does a story about the struggle of real, human characters. Nearly three quarters of the film is both implied and overt violence against animals while the last quarter is an attempt to recapture the horror element of the original. This approach to the end of the movie is not so terrifying as it is fun and campy in spots. This is where certain performances and death sequences stand out as redeeming elements. It isn't enough to make this a good film by any means, just a far more watchable one. If you've held out this long "Pet Sematary 2" falls distinctly into the "why bother" category of recommendation. We are obliged to mention that spoilers come early on this one...as does the first pubescent scream from Edward Furlong.
