De familie Creed lijkt het perfecte leven te hebben gevonden, als zij naar een prachtig huis op het platteland is verhuisd… maar de idylle wordt al snel wreed verstoord. Home sweet home wordt home sweet hel voor de Creeds.
Onze opinie:
De initiële verfilming van Stephen King’s verhaal ziet er nogal verouderd uit, maar qua verfilming is deze wel beter dan de remake

Director: Mary LambertWriter: Stephen KingStars: Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby, Fred GwynneSummary: Eager to start afresh, the young doctor, Louis Creed, and his family--his wife, Rachel, their daughter, Ellie, and their three-year-old toddler, Gage--move to their new home in the small rural town of Ludlow, Maine, alarmingly close to a busy highway. However, after the inadvertent death of Rachel's cherished tomcat in an awful accident, reluctantly, a desperate Louis will take his friendly neighbour's advice to bury it in an ancient Micmac graveyard: a mystical burial ground imbued with alleged reanimating powers. Now, despite the terrible results and the insistent warnings from a recently deceased, tragedy-stricken Louis has no other choice but to go back to the Indian cemetery, in high hopes that, this time, things will be different. Nevertheless, can the dead truly return from the grave? —Nick Riganas
