      The drinking devices in the abductees' cubicles hold barely a quart of water and they don't seem to have piping to fill up automatically. These would have to be filled up very frequently to sustain the test subjects.

    Nah, nothing much of anything new here...
    I sat down to watch the 2021 thriller "Like Dogs" from writer and director Randy Van Dyke here in 2022 without ever having heard about the movie. So I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into, but it being labeled a horror/thriller was sufficient to make me have an interest in the movie. And also since I hadn't already seen it, of course I opted to do so.

    And while "Like Dogs" definitely was off to a killer start and maintained the suspense for a good long way, I have to say that the steam started to vanish from the kettle once it was revealed what was actually going on. Sure, I was a bit thrown off by the reveal, but thought 'hey, why not? We can work with that' and continued on with the movie. However, by the time you get to the laughable ending, the movie had gone from good to being one where you just shrug your shoulders. A shame really, because "Like Dogs" had a lot of potential.

    "Like Dogs" is a movie that clearly is a low budget movie, and it shows on the screen. I will say, however, that the first third part of the movie was definitely working out quite well, despite this being a low budget production, so thumbs up to the movie crew on that accomplishment.

    I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Like Dogs", and that is something I do enjoy in movies. And yeah, it was working to the movie's advantage here as well. Just don't expect to be in for an evening of Shakespearian performances and you'll be set.

    I found "Like Dogs" to be a semi-watchable movie. It was adequate enough for a single viewing, if you can look past the downhill slide that the movie was on. But that is one of the problems with "Like Dogs", it is a movie that you watch once and then never again.

    My rating of "Like Dogs" lands on a four out of ten stars.
