Pet Sematary: Bloodlines follows Jackson White's Jud in the 1960s, who's sick of the small town he lives in. However he discovers family secrets and a secret evil in the town, that's all linked to a graveyard that can bring bodies back to life...

A prequel to the 2019 movie Pet Sematary, this new story serves to go deeper into that popular Stephen King adaptation, exploring in more depth the world of this eerie animal horror movie.

You'll be able to watch Pet Sematary: Bloodlines from Friday, October 6, and we'll help you figure out how to watch it, as well as the original movie in case you want to catch up on it.

How to watch Pet Sematary: Bloodlines

You'll be able to watch Pet Sematary: Bloodlines on Paramount Plus, because the new movie is an original production for Paramount's streaming service. That means you'll have to stream it, with no movie theater options.

The movie hits Paramount Plus on Friday, October 6 in the US, but in many other regions (including the UK) it'll arrive one day late, on Saturday, October 7.

For a monthly plan, Paramount Plus costs $5.99 / £6.99, though in the US there's also an $11.99 per month Showtime plan with a larger library. There are also annual options that save you around two months' subscription over signing up monthly.
