Did Jud bury his wife at that place? - Man in a Plaid Shirt Covering His Face

In Pet Sematary (2019), Jud resurrects his doggo. At a point in the film, zombie-Ellie takes the shape of his wife and says that both Ellie and his wife are burning in hell and suffering.

My interpretation was that zombie-Ellie was just mentally torturing Jud. He didn't resurrect his wife, zombie-Ellie was just describing after-life as hellish. My friends disagreed, and said Jud had brought back his wife and eventually killed her again, and that's the hell zombie-Ellie had described.

Having never read the book, is there confirmation anywhere (or does the movie heavily imply something) regarding whether Jud resurrected (or not) his wife?



Best Answer

In the book, Jud had only resurrected his dog, and not his wife, especially since there is an instance in the book of a father bringing back his adult son that Jud knows about that went horribly wrong that is alluded to in the movie from an old news article of a missing body.

Nowhere in the movie does it imply that he ever resurrected his wife, it is pure conjecture on the part of your friends.

Did Jud bury his wife in the Pet Sematary?

But the villain in Pet Sematary was never the reanimated corpses. The villain is the burial ground; and by extension, the Wendigo. Still, he might have had a chance at surviving had he not buried his wife, who ultimately - and unsurprisingly - returns from the dead.

Did Jud bury Norma in the Pet Sematary?

He continued, explaining that the Norma storyline "ended up sort of pushing us away from the relationship that Jud had with Ellie and that Jud had with Louis, which was essentially that he had buried Norma and she had come back and stabbed him."

Why does Jud show Louis the Pet Sematary?

Jud admits later to Louis that he did it for selfish/invented reasons: he had a secret and he wanted badly to share it. \u201cLester did it and Stanny did it for the same reason I did it. You do it because it gets hold of you.

Answer 2

The 2019 film diverges significantly from the book. The book doesn't have zombie-Ellie (or zombie-Gage, as it was in the book) transforming into anything else, nor is there any mention of Jud burying anyone in the MicMac cemetery.

Sorry to disappoint.

Answer 3

Actually the movie does infer that. It does this when

Ellie is stabbing him.

It infers he did this by Ellie's words. It does not say he did but it infers he did.
