Pet Sematary Could Get A Prequel

While any novel being adapted for the screen is going to lose some pieces that are deemed unnecessary for the film to flow, Pet Sematary gave up a lot of real estate when it came to the story of its iconic next door neighbor Jud Crandall. It doesnt hurt the films narrative, though viewers familiar with the source novel or even the 1989 adaptation might miss those parts of the story they remember pertaining to the big lesson Jud learned when dealing with the titular burial ground. Those fans might be consoled by the fact those pieces of the story are not only fresh in producer Lorenzo Di Bonaventuras mind, hes open to adapting them into their own story.

Naturally, it feels like this whole conversation started with the fact that the 2019 adaptations radically different ending leaves some room for a sequel to Pet Sematary; and that notion is certainly not out of the realm of possibility. Regardless, while making the rounds with the press, Di Bonaventura expressed that going forward isnt the direction that intrigues him most with this particular story. Speaking to that point in one interview, he laid out his thoughts as follows:

I generally dont start thinking about [sequels] until theyre a success. I think if theres anything here, theres a prequel. I think if you look at the book, we didnt cover all that stuff that happens before the Creed family moves in. So, I think theres a movie there, and I think Id be particularly interested in doing that, because, again, its the source material and you are going toward something that also has a lot of crazy, creepy feelings about it.

With Pet Sematarys 2019 refresh already grossing almost double its production costs, theres a case to be made for the films commercial viability. Not only does it have the Stephen King brand name working in its favor, but the films story is also one of the more popular titles out of Kings catalog. Whats more, the story of Jud Grandalls youth and the local experiences with the old Micmac burial ground are ripe for fans -- old and new -- to see brought to the big screen.

Lorenzo Di Bonaventuras remarks to Consequence of Sound during his time at this years SXSW festival pretty much sum up why hed want to explore this particular avenue of franchise extension, and, in my opinion, his reasonings sound. But what about the story material? Well, fans of the novel know that Juds story about how various pets, and eventually war vet Timmy Baterman, were buried in that stony, supernatural soil turned out. But theres so much to that particular story that a prequel film could easily inhabit that earlier era, and would only require a bit of padding out to make a unique narrative.

Pet Sematary isnt even the first Stephen King property to find itself looking towards the prequel treatment as of late, as Season 2 of Hulus Castle Rock anthology is going to follow young Annie Wilkes from Misery, and her path to unstable evil. The big difference here is that Jud Crandalls backstory, as well as that of the town that he inhabits, provides an advantage to expanding the world that the story of Pet Sematary inhabits.

This universe is already built to accommodate this prequel, as Pet Sematary does sneak in references to these past events. Most notably, when Jason Clarkes Louis Creed is researching Ludlows rather colorful history, he comes across a newspaper story discussing Timmy Baterman, now updated to be a veteran of the Vietnam War, rather than his service taking place during World War II in the original novels time frame.

Strangely enough, it sounds like some of the storied past of Pet Sematary almost made it into the finished product of directors Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyers reboot, as Lorenzo Di Bonaventura shared the following details, courtesy of an interview with /Film:

Do we get to meet young Jud? Theres a lot of opportunity I think that we dont have to make up out of whole cloth. As fans of the book, I know for me Ive increasingly liked the idea that thats how we would approach it. ... Yeah, and one of the things we did try to get in is we tried to get the Micmacs in. At one point we had written an opening scene where you see them flee and youre left with some information but not too much information about the why of it. Less about establishing what it is theyre running [from] and more establishing what is the thing thats freaking them out.

It's certainly not lost on Di Bonaventura that Jud Crandalls story has a lot of potential, should the decision makers at Paramount find themselves in the mood to further resurrect their legacy property. Though given the studios recent attempts to bring back some of previous hits through sequels, like Coming To America 2, and reboots, like the smash hit Bumblebee, this has to have been a thought that already crossed several minds before Pet Sematary even opened.

Whether or not this story becomes the next entry in Pet Sematarys canon remains to be seen, as the films only been out for a little over a week. The next couple of weekends will undoubtedly be crucial to such a prospect, and if the numbers add up, it looks like theres some room to scare up some more box office horror in the sleepy town of Ludlow, Maine. After all, old Jud was right when he said that sometimes dead is better. At the same time, why let the dead rest, when theyre having such a good time?

Pet Sematary is in theaters now, but if youre looking for more box office excitement, our 2019 release schedule is the place you should be to find it. Though if youre dead set on seeking out more Stephen King adaptations, we have a special guide to projects strictly from the authors pen that are currently on track for release and production.
