Charlo F This movie is a bit weird, besides making the dog that played Beethoven play a killer dog - it's just too devastating for the audience. Anyway, I give Cujo a 7 out of 10. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review Julian S Though it bites fiercely, “Cujo” might surprise casual horror fans by offering more than just a typical monster movie, as it explores the raw instincts underlying family fragility. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/24/24 Full Review Tanisha R There are 2 different movies happening here and the one with the cheating wife seemed more interesting to me (not that interesting). The killer dog part seemed so thrown in that they could've just left it out, called it something else and made this a lifetime movie. As far as scary goes, the dog is gross to look at and for some reason wet all the time. But the story is awful. This one could definitely use a remake with the stories focus to be on the dog. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 10/07/24 Full Review Jonathan O Cujo is every man's best friend worst nightmare to have a adorable dog who suddenly got bitten by a bat and get rabid and killing people of there actions is terrifying and Dee Wallace performance is so fearless and brave to protect her son from this rabid dog and the story is is okay doesn't feel like part Stephen King's universe but it does have Spielberg's JAWS vibe but with four legs. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/25/24 Full Review Teddy B It has no real purpose or aim, but it does serve up an acceptable amount of well-done suspense, even if the first act drags for a long time and doesn't tie in at all to the last act with the absence of the novel's punchy ending. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Jeff M I honestly try to avoid getting too hyperbolic in my reviews, but not only do I think this is the second best Stephen King book to screen adaptation ever (next to CARRIE), but I think it's one of the truly great horror films of the last few decades. I watched it for the first time in probably at least ten years, and I was amazed at how well it held up. I've said it a jillion times and I'll say it again here - the scariest movies are the ones rooted in reality. And there's not a second of screen time here that doesn't feel like it could be true to life. Wallace joins the illustrious pantheon of horror movie moms including JoBeth Williams in POLTERGEIST and Toni Collette in HEREDITARY. Her work here is extraordinary, and she is the single most important element that holds this movie together. And MAJOR props to young Pintauro who is absolutely wonderful, particularly in the latter half of the movie. The key to this film is a genuine concern and caring about the characters involved. And I honestly would place Cujo up there with Jaws as one of the great scary creatures of its time. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/24 Full Review Read all reviews
