    There are many ways of reading, the selection and the diversity (old and contemporary writers) of what you read helps you see how you could appreciate a more critical view of what you are reading. Reading a novel before watching someone's rendering of the same novel into, say Netflix, may expand your imagination and possibly show you how limited the director's version of the same story. I felt that with Stephen King's thrillers, Pet Sematary and Thinner, then watching them as movies.

    The film poster says "Right", the trailer says "Right"; seems pretty conclusive. I'm really not clear why most articles say "Rite".

    Wikipedia in particular should know better, but they already have a problem with cluelessly pedantic hypercorrection (https://xkcd.com/1167/). I keep expecting them to try to "correct" Pet Sematary.

    I saw "Pet Sematary" when I was ~10 and I regret. I haven't seen the movie again but I remember that as a traumatic episode.

    I have seen a lot of movies rated for adult with my daughter but not horror like that. I think every person is different, use the common sense.
