Pet Sematray
October 18th 2007 10:19
Stephen King's Pet Sematary is one of my favourite movies, not because I am a big Stephen King fan or because it is a great story interestingly portrayed.
No, I love this movie because there is a scene about three quarters of the way through the movie where Dale Midkiff, who plays the main character Louis Creed, wakes up from a nightmare and cracks his head on a bedside table.
Now, this at first might not seem that funny...but trust me it is.
You see when Dale Midkiff rolls out of bed and hits his eye on the corner of this table, it's real. It's not his great acting abilities or a stuntman, he really smacks his eye fair and square on the corner of this bedside table.
When my partner and I were watching the movie after not seeing it for about five or so years, and saw this scene we were pissing ourselves laughing. We then proceeded to rewind it about a hundred times which resulted with me squealing in fits of tears and laughter.
I have nothing but praise and respect for the people involved in producing this movie for leaving such an utterly perfect stuff up in the final cut. It is probably the single most brilliant 15 seconds of footage ever captured.
And to top it all off in the next shot of the movie Dale Midkiff has a mark under his eye from where his head collided with a seemingly innocent prop. Nice.
