Cujo (1983)

Description

Evil bites when a monstrous canine terrorizes a helpless family in this legendary cult classic based on the best seller by supreme shiver-giver Stephen King (Misery, It, Needful Things). Starring Dee Wallace (The Howling, E.T. I'm Dangerous Tonight), Daniel Hugh Kelly (Nowhere to Hide) and Ed Lauter (The Longest Yard), Cujo unleashes the ultimate in unrelenting terror. In rural Castle Rock, Maine, Vic and Donna Trenton (Hugh Kelly and Wallace) struggle to repair their crumpling marrage, while their young son Tad (Danny Pintauro, TV's Who's the Boss?) befriends a hulking lovable, 200-pound St. Bernard named Cujo. With Vic away on business, Donna and Yad take their decrepit car to be fixed at the remote farm of their mechanic (Lauter). As their aging Pinto sputters to a stop and dies, Cujo appears. But the docile dog has undergone a hideous transformation-and becomes a slavering, demonic killer possesed by almost supernatural strength...and unholy cunning. So get ready for Cujo, an irresistable force from the King of Horror, directed by Lewis Teague (Alligator, Cat's Eye) and shot by Jan de Bont (Die Hard). It will have you glued to your seat...and foaming at the mouth!
