It's not quite a prequel to the 2019 movie.
Summary Despite being billed as a prequel to the 2019 Stephen King adaptation, co-writer/director Lindsey Anderson Beer clarified Pet Sematary: Bloodlines' connection to the larger franchise. The Paramount+ movie centers on a young Jud Crandall as his efforts to leave his hometown of Ludlow are upended when a childhood friend is brought back to life by the eponymous location.
Ahead of the movie's release, Screen Rant spoke exclusively with Beer to break down Pet Sematary: Bloodlines. When asked about her goals in adapting the multiple tones of King's novel, the co-writer/director clarified the prequel's connections to the 2019 movie, indicating that while it may have started as a direct follow-up to it and features some of the same creative team members, she approached it more as a prequel to the original novel than any other adaptation.
You know, I think this project started as a 2019 prequel, Jeff Buhler wrote the original draft, and obviously, it's the producers of the 2019 film. When I came aboard, I really didn't think of it as a prequel to any one film, I just thought of as this prequel to the book, and just kept re-reading the book. I wanted to honor the book as much as I could, both in terms of the themes and the tone of the original book.
Pet Sematary: Bloodlines Flips A Recent King Adaptation In the 40-plus years of studios trying their hands at King adaptations, many of his works have seen follow-ups produced thanks to their originals being financially successful. Some of the more infamous have been the long-running Children of the Corn franchise, which has yet to see a positively reviewed adaptation, as well as even Pet Sematary itself, whose 1992 sequel was a critical failure and a commercial disappointment.
Unlike Doctor Sleep, Pet Sematary: Bloodlines isn't technically based on an actual King novel, instead adapting a brief section in the 1983 book in which Jud warns Louis Creed about the malevolent powers of the eponymous graveyard. While Beer indicates that her approach to the movie was more focused on its source novel than prior adaptations, trailers for the movie have shown glimpses of connections to the 2019 Pet Sematary, namely a flash of the revived cat Church.
