Paramount+ has announced an October 6th premiere date for horror movie “Pet Sematary: Bloodlines” along with unveiling the first photos from the project.
The film serves as a prequel to the story King himself dubs his scariest story, and is based on an untold chapter of the book. The story follows a younger version of the original book’s elderly Jud Crandall character in 1969.
In this version, he has dreams of leaving his hometown behind but soon discovers sinister secrets buried within and is forced to confront a dark family history that will forever keep him connected to the town.
Banding together, Jud and his childhood friends must fight an ancient evil that has gripped Ludlow since its founding and, once unearthed, has the power to destroy everything in its path.
Quickly rising screenwriter Lindsey Beer, whose name is attached to pen nine upcoming films including a fourth “Star Trek,” the “M.A.S.K.” movie, and remakes of “Bambi” and “Short Circuit,” is attached to write and make her directorial debut.
The film stars Jackson White (“Tell Me Lies”), Forrest Goodluck (“The Revenant”), Jack Mulhern (“Mare of Easttown), Henry Thomas (“The Fall of the House of Usher”), Natalie Alyn Lind (The Goldbergs”) and Isabella Star LaBlanc (“True Detective: Night Country”), along with acting veterans Pam Grier and David Duchovny.
Jeff Buhler co-wrote the script and Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Mark Vahradian are producing.
