When a married couple and their young children move to a rural town in Maine, they discover they live near a secluded pet graveyard. It's a mysterious burial ground where animals can inexplicably come back from the dead. But after an unexpected tragic accident, the couple uses the graveyard to bring back a dead loved one -- only to later learn that "sometimes dead is better."

Starring Jason Clarke (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, First Man), Amy Seimetz (Netflix's Stranger Things, Alien: Covenant), and Emmy-winner John Lithgow (Netflix's The Crown), "Pet Sematary" is a new big-screen adaptation of Stephen King's classic horror novel of the same name, which itself was adapted into the 1989 cult horror movie with the late, great Fred Gwynne.

The upcoming supernatural thriller is directed by horror filmmakers Kevin Kolsch and Dennis Widmyer, whose film credits include 2014's indie chiller "Starry Eyes."

Written by horror scribe Jeff Buhler (The Midnight Meat Train, Syfy's Nightflyers), "Pet Sematary" has been selected to make its world premiere next week as the closing night film at the SXSW Film Festival.

The film is scheduled to open in theaters on April 5th. In the meantime, you can watch the brand-new official second trailer, above.
