Revealing mistake: When Louis gives Gage the lethal injection, because the syringe is transparent you can actually see the prop needle retract in and out of the syringe as he supposedly injects Gage.
Pet Sematary (1989)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Mary Lambert
Starring: Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby, Fred Gwynne, Brad Greenquist
Gage kills Jud Crandall and his mother. Louis injects poison into Gage. Louis buries his wife in the pet cemetery, not listening to Victor Pascow's warning. Louis's wife comes back and they kiss. She knifes him...
Creed
Louis Creed: Hey, why are you here?
Victor Pascow: I want to help you because, Louis? Because you tried to help me.
Trivia: At the beginning of the movie when it shows the pet graves in the Pet Sematary there is a grave that says, "Smucky the Cat, he was obedient." Smucky the Cat was actually Stephen King's daughter's cat that was killed.
Question: Why did Louis kill Church at the end? He only planned on killing Gage if he came back like Timmy Baterman did, and he could have just walked in after distracting Church with the meat.

Chosen answer: Church's behavior had changed after being buried. He was now violent (and working with Gage) and needed to be put down before killing anyone.
