Happy Thanksgiving, Spookies! This week, we're thankful for Herman Munster, chest hair, and cuddly cats, because we're celebrating the holiday with Stephen King's Pet Sematary (1989). One of the few adaptations of his books that the prolific author actually got to write the screenplay for himself, this flick is interesting in the ways it both stuck to and veered away from the original story. On our latest episode of Spooky Tuesday, we're diving into those differences and dodging 18 wheelers as we talk about the merits of playing god and slaying a cunty little funeral fit.
