An ok horror movie, only because the main star is adog!, 10 August 1999
7/10
Author: Michael Bregman from London, England

The premise of a horror movie starring a dog is great, but the movie isn't. Still, its watchable and enjoyable most of the time.

The special effects are crappy compared to the great stuff around, but the trained dog actor is extremely cute and talented. He should get a little Dogscar (I know, it's lame, but dogs should also get prizes for acting!!!).

The drama in the movie is also nice, even though it seems to be going nowhere sometimes.
