"There are no real monsters."

One of three Stephen King adaptations to be released in 1983 (The Dead Zone and Christine being the other two), Cujo is a moderately thrilling though never outright terrifying horror about a man's best friend gone rabid. Most of King's stories concern supernatural threats, but Cujo is more grounded, boiling down to a simple story that could occur in the... read more

Cujo really is a classic. The camera angles and the acting by Dee Wallace and her son in the movie, forget his name, are very realistic it's really fantastic. You strive to root for them and worry for their lives. Cujo the dog scared the crap out of me when I first watched this, even the dog had spectacular acting/training hahaha. I recommended this for any "so called horror fan". I'm not a big ho... read more

"26.7. Blu-ray Uusintakatselu. Cujoa koitin vanhalta VHS:ltä ehkä seiskaluokalla pariin kertaan, eikä vaan napannut. Jälkimmäinen kerta jätti jopa inhon tapaista jälkimakua. Ei mitään hajua, miksi. Oireet viittaisivat kuumeessa katsomiseen, mutten usko. Vasta Eurekan parin vuoden takaisen julkaisun myötä pikkuhiljaa alkoi kiinnostamaan uusiminen. Hyvinhän se toimii. Taloudellisen tehokasta hirviökauhun mukaelmaa ja ihmeen toimivaa syrjähyppydraamaa, josta mainittavaa moitittavaa e"

"7.7 Castle Rockin pikkukaupungissa jaksaa sattua ja tapahtua, kuten myös tässä lempeimmässä koskaan tehdyssä koiraelokuvassa. Ainoa asia mikä tässä tappaa mielenkiintoa ja jännitystä on se valitettava tosiseikka, että päähenkilöt ovat suurimman osan ajastaan jumissa auton sisällä."

" This movie is ridiculously disturbing. And weird too. Like the first half is almost soap opera-ish where a picture perfect family with the annoying kid from Who's the Boss act nauseatingly sweet and then..... the wife is a thot having an affair and her husband finds out etc the plot lingers a lot on this and it feels like a Lifetime movie Then a nearby dog gets rabies and shit and starts attacking people and it gets more involving. Basically the action lies in the dog brutally mangling peo"
