 Hello everybody. E here. Welcome back to 31 days of Halloween today. We are talking about Pet Cemetery bloodlines a 2023 Movie that takes place after the events of the reboot and that's important for several reasons That I'll get into and in the review But this one stars Natalie Allen Lynn Jackson white David Dukovny Jack Mulhern Henry Thomas Pam Greer and a whole bunch of industry staples, but let's go ahead and jump right into the review Okay, so Pet Cemetery bloodlines. What's it about? Why does it exist? I really don't have I don't have the answers to the second question, but the the first question is It takes place In in the past it is a prequel movie If you have not watched the trailers, I'm not going to get into extensive details about what happens in the movie but just need us to say that it takes place in the past and It is referencing a scene that is in the book in the original movie I cannot remember if it's in the reboot, but the lore for the reboot reboot is is Important unfortunately because it follows the rules of the reboot and not the original Pet Cemetery movie nor the book Now there are a lot of Easter eggs and things in this movie for that and other Stephen King properties whatnot. There's a bunch of that stuff if you want a video on that after 31 days of halloween is over Just let me know down there in the doobly-doo Where I'm at with this movie for those of you who like to get in get dirty and get out I am at a 3.5 stars for this one. It is leagues Leagues leaps and bounds better than the reboot in what 2019 I think it was even though it uses the same stuff that they bring up in that one There's a couple differences between there's a lot of differences actually But they use some of that lore in this one the the people who are brought back talk a hell of a lot more than they Do in the book and versus the original movie so go in there with that in mind I would this is a this is a good movie. It is a serviceable Pet Cemetery Prequel I guess it is a prequel. It supposedly you know happens Wait, I don't want to spoil because I had no idea going into this what they were going to be talking about And once it finally clicked once all the name started filtering in I was like Oh, this might actually be pretty damn cool, and it it was there is absolutely nothing Amazing about this about this movie. There is nothing that's gonna stand out to you There's nothing that's gonna make it a classic a cult classic. It is just an okay movie I didn't have any problem with any of the acting other than I don't think I don't even know why because we don't see much of Norma in the in the movies or in the book you just don't see much of her But I feel like the person they got to play Norma In this one did not fit the original Norma And I am saying that I'm saying that name specifically because I don't want to give away anything else If you know who Norma is that's good. If not, you don't have a spoiler that kind of deal the the pacing is Really off in this one. I like the characters. I didn't have much dread because since it's a prequel We all know how the story turns out the story is brought up at least once in all of the movies and in the and in the book but That this I don't know what it is about this one, but sometimes I wasn't just my it didn't have my attention the I Guess the the pacing is just all over the place. I'm not sure how to explain it without going into detail There is far more down time There's far more character drama in this which makes it a little bit more like Kings like the source material But at the same time There's not enough going on all the time to keep you interested for the entire Runtime and the movie really isn't all that long I'm giving it 3.5 because it is much better shot than the than the 2019 reboot It is there's better acting a better writing But even better I would even say a better score soundtrack It's just better all around But I liked it can I liked it so much more I gave that the the reboot of one star and for this one I'm gonna give it 3.5 because it not only did it exceed my expectations But I didn't actively hate it like I did with the last one So 3.5 might actually be too much, but I don't want to go all the way down to three So that's where I'm at with this movie if you do not know anything about this going in I'm gonna tell you again Do not watch the trailer do not read the synopsis any of that stuff because it was a hell of a surprise for me Going into it what it what it actually was and it wasn't until probably about 15 minutes into the movie that everything Started to fall into place and I was like oh, this is this is pretty cool And I I would have never thought that they would do this story as a in as a full movie Since it's such a small part in the book and the movies when they do bring it up But have you seen Pet Cemetery bloodlines if you have let me know what you think about it down there in the doobly-doo But until next time I have any you have been you this has been another episode of 31 days of Halloween I'll talk to you guys later. Bye. Bye
