Pet Sematary is a remake of a 1989 horror film about a family dealing with change and tragedy move to a new home and work, only for things to get decidedly worse. Their home lies adjacent to a cursed burial ground where things don't stay dead but return "changed." First the cat, Church, and then the young daughter, etc. A spooky tale that will haunt you.

Trivia: In both the book and the 1989 film, it is little Gage, and not his sister Ellie, who dies and returns as a murderous undead.

More trivia for Pet Sematary

Question: What was wrong with Rachel's sister Zelda? In the flashbacks it shows the older sister as having a twisted spine and being in bed. But what was wrong with her? Was she crippled?

Answer: In the original film, she has a condition called "spinal meningitis," which is an infection in the fluids and membranes around the spine and brain. The disease in real life can cause a range of effects including severe joint and back pain, weight loss, light sensitivity and even brain damage. The implication in both films seems to be that we're not really seeing the "real" Zelda, but more of a monstrous version of Zelda based on Rachel's memory as a child.
