‘It’ Director Now Wants to Direct Stephen King’s ‘Pet Cemetery’

If you thought It was creepy, turns out you might soon to be fixated by another Stephen King classic.

It director might be returning to the King repertoire to direct Pet Cemetery, Entertainment Weekly reports, along with producer Barbara Muschietti. The novel was first adapted into a 1989 film starring Dale Midkiff and Denise Crosby.

The story is about young parents who move in next to a busy country road and burial ground, where apparently the dead tend to arise again. “My affection for Pet Sematary will go on until I die,” Andy Muschietti told EW. “I will always dream about the possibility of making a movie.”

“We’ll see who gets to it first,” Barbara Muschietti said. “But it is the first Stephen King book that we read, and it’s something that has been a great love, because it is possibly King’s most personal book. You can imagine his young family. What will you do to be able to keep your family? How far would you go?”
