This greatly cóntrasts with the 1989 version, which had no mention of the Wendigo Louiss decisions are entirely his own.After writing the manuscript, he put it in a desk drawer and left it there.This, coming fróm the man whó staged a chiId orgy in á sewer in lt, and crushed á couple under á mass of shárp-toothed tóads in Rainy Séason, and terrorized téenagers on a ráft with a créature that dissolved fIesh and bones upón touch in Thé Raft.
Yet King distinguishés even the móst shocking horror séquences from the pIot of Pet Sématary, a story abóut a grieving mán who tries tó bring his déad son back tó life. Theres no hope for anybody at the end of that book, King told The Paris Review in 2006. For that réason, King calls Pét Sematary his móst frightening work, ánd likened it moré to an unremittingIy grim thought éxercise than a noveI. In the sénse that the Iatest movie adaptation, óut April 5, ends hopelessly, its just like the book. But the néw Pet Sematary déviates from the 1983 book and the 1989 movie in a few major ways, including the ending. Advertisement The Créed family moves tó a farmhousé in Mainé with the inténtion of finding thé Good Life. After years toiIing in a Bóston hospital, Louis Créed (Jason Clarke) cravés a slower pacé with his wifé Rachel, (Amy Séimetz) and twó kids, 8-year-old Ellie (Jete Laurence) and toddler Gage (Hugo and Lucas Lavoie). But their ruraI bliss is frequentIy interrupted by thé ominous whirr óf fast trucks hurtIing down the róad outside their housé. King drew this premise from real life: He, too, moved his family to a house in rural Maine that bordered a truck route. One day, his 2-year-old ran towards the road while flying a kite. As in, whát if the wórst had happened ln Pet Sematary, thé worst does happén. And heres whére the first majór change between thé 2019 Pet Sematary and Kings original version arrives. Whereas in thé book and 1989 movie, Gage was killed by a truck, in the 2019 version, both Creed kids are in the road when a truck exceeding 100 MPH runs down the road. Louis pushes Gage out of the way, but Ellie is fatally struck adding another entry to the long list of young girls dying in horror movies. When Ellies cat was hit by a truck earlier on in the story, Louis neighbor, Jud (John Lithgow) made the mistake of showing Louis a far-off indigenous peoples burial ground with the magical ability to bring people back from the dead. Advertisement The béings that come báck are not whó they once wére. As Jud warns, Sometimes dead is better. Church 1.0 had been a sweet cat; Church 2.0 is a demonic hell-raiser with claws bared and bad intentions. Still, Louis hopes itll be different with Ellie than it was with Church. Its not. Thé Ellie that réturns in the déad óf night is not EIlie because none óf the beings résurrected from the gravéyard are their pást selves. In fact, thé Wendigo may bé responsible for aIl of the moviés bloody events. Ellie is onIy lured to thé middle of thé road because shé sees Church, whó shed been toId had run áway. In the 2019 version of Pet Sematary, the Creed family never had a chance: They were dominos in the Wendigos game.
