This is getting absurd! Remaking films that aren’t even twenty years old?!
Never the less, Paramount feel a reworking of the Stephen King gem “Pet Semtary” is in order and have hired “Face/Off” screenwriters Mike Werb and Michael Colleary to script it.
The project is based on Stephen King’s story of a family moving to a small Maine town with a pet cemetery and an Indian burial ground, for Par-based Alphaville to produce. King also wrote the screenplay for Paramount’s 1989 release, directed by Mary Lambert and starring Denise Crosby, Dale Midkiff and Fred Gwynne.
The duo, who got together after Werb wrote spec “The Mask”, most recently wrote the pilot for the small-screen version of “S.W.A.T”. for Sony Pictures Television and Original and the sci-fi drama “Alien Prison” for Columbia Pictures with Red Wagon.
