How much time has passed between the first movie and 'Pet Sematary II'?

No precise time is mentioned. A good guess would be about three years, evidenced by the fact that the first movie came out in 1989 and the date on Renee's headstone says 1992.

Is anyone from the first movie back for this one?

No, although the plight of the Creed family and Jud Crandall (from Pet Sematary) is mentioned when both Drew and Clyde Parker (Jared Rushton) tell Jeff what happened. It has now become a favorite ghost story to tell on Halloween along with the new addition that Ellie was placed in a mental institution after killing her grandparents and that she recently escaped, so you better watch out!

What is 'Pet Sematary II' about?

After witnessing the death of his mother, actress Renee Harrow (Darlanne Fluegel), following an electrical accident on the set of her new movie, Jeff Matthews (Edward Furlong) and his veterinarian father Chase (Anthony Edwards) move to their summerhouse in Ludlow, Maine. Picked on by some other boys because of his famous mother, Jeff makes friends with Drew Gilbert (Jason McGuire), the stepson of the town's sheriff Gus Gilbert (Clancy Brown). When Drew's dog Zowie is shot by Gus for messing with his rabbit cage, Drew calls upon Jeff to help him bury Zowie in the ancient Indian cemetery where, as the story goes, 'the dead rise'. Unfortunately, the ground has long ago gone 'sour', and the dead buried there don't come back the same as they were before they died.
