Pascow
The character of Pascow is completely different in each version of “Pet Sematary.” In the original story, the zombie shows up once, briefly, to provide Louis with a supernatural warning that stuff’s about to get weird. In the 2019 movie he makes more than a single appearance. But, for whatever reason, this chilling character is used for comic relief in the 1989 film, as he repeatedly shows up, but is always unable to deliver his message of doom because wacky things happen.
