Pet Sematary

I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs which I owned. Stephen King's name was suffice. Revisited it recently on a dvd which I own since m planning to watch the remake. The film was very innovative. Found the violence very extreme then but now I found the entire film to be ridiculous. A small kid able to hang an adult? The child attacking scenes looked more like Chucky's. Inspite of staying next to a main road where every 2 mins a big truck passes in full speed, why no speed breaker? Why no fence wall to guard kids/pets venturing out? The acting by the main male lead is atrocious. He looked as if he was smiling during intense scenes. There is a very disturbing scene regarding a small kid. I cannot watch any scene showing harm towards kids.

I even saw part two on a dvd which I own n liked it better than this in terms of hilarity n kills. Clancy Brown n the gore effects were good.
