Pet Sematary is a difficult film to review, as auto-correct continuously attempts to have its way with the title.
The 1989 original, directed by Mary Lambert, isn't the kind of film I would normally watch. Therefore my comments will not apply to the masses who probably love it.
To me, it doesn't hold up, or alternatively, was never a good film.
It is, however, a necessity for Stephen King completists.
And for those folks, it's terrific news, as Paramount's new 4k Blu-ray is gorgeous. Highly resolved, with inky blacks, and beautiful color.
Audio, in DTS-HD MA, is rich and full.
Nary a problem in sight.

Upgrade from Blu-ray - absolutely!
