Review of Cujo (1983) by Justin A — 07 Jun 2016

The book wasn't very good, but the movie found a way to be worse. The book is a tedious read at 300 pages. Instead of taking the smart route and cutting some of the unnecessary nonsense that plagued the story to begin with, they try to do the most literal translation possible (with the monster words, the Sharp Cereal Professor, etc).

To make matters worse, they changed the ending which was one of the only good things about the book. It's such a good concept, it just doesn't work as a book or a movie.
