Review of Cujo (1983) by Mark K — 17 Sep 2012

There is no good in this Stephen King chiller, and no evil. Just the indifferent forces of nature. Terribly sad, it revolves around a mother and son who, through a series of indirect circumstances, find themselves trapped inside a broken-down Pinto by a rabid St.

Bernard. It sports a pace that's deliberate and deeply character-driven. And as excruciating as it is to watch the suffering and deterioration of the title pooch, there's no denying that the culmination to and moments of his attack are extremely intense, primarily thanks to well above-average work by cast, camera and cutting.
