Brainbug Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) On 4/5/2019 at 5:01 PM, The Horror of Lucas Films said: 3. Lol, the ED comparison makes no sense. From BOP: In terms of horror remakes, Pet Sematary opened right in line with 2013’s Evil Dead, which debuted with $25.7 million on its way to a $54.2 million total. Interestingly, both of those films received “C+” Cinemascores, suggesting Pet Sematary could finish in similar territory. That’s not a bad result when you consider its budget came in at a reported $21 million. @The Horror of Lucas Films Edited April 7, 2019 by Brainbug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yandereprime101189 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) Glad it had a good opening weekend. Don't watch the original after the remake though. I never realized how really goofy it was until now. Edited April 7, 2019 by Yandereprime101189 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) the original has always been goofy and the sequel (PS2) is goofier. they play those every halloween. Edited April 7, 2019 by Valonqar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yandereprime101189 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 The sequel has a real mean streak though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t remember what was the subject, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remake of an older horror film/franchise, small built-in-fanbase, nearly exact same release date and mixed-positive reviews. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, congrats to you then, I was absolutely wrong for thinking this movie would break out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddddeeee Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 The old one has a terrible lead and is less competently made on the whole, but I think it has more about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudalb Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 It's going to make a good profit, but people who were expecting another "IT" were badly mistaken. "IT" seems to be a one off as far horror remakes go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytr87 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Pretty cool that Us, an original, grossed nearly three times on OW what a big King IP remake did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Neither version has a charismatic lead. This movie's lead whose name escapes me Jason something is the opposite of charismatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 really a shame to hear. Even if you didn't like the movie (I didn't) a shoutout should be given to the cat-actor in it. Not every human can act. Must be incredibly talented for an animal to be able to give a (pretty good admittedly) performance in a movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
