Review of White Dog (1982) by Jon W — 26 Feb 2009

Having finally gotten to see the movie, I'm not sure what I actually was expecting. The movie isn't all that entertaining really, but it does have a good anti-racism stance. The dog is pretty fuckin scary in a few scenes.

I like the idea of the story, and the way the dog acts as a bigger metaphor, but the movie just isn't that enjoyable. Also the main actress really looked like Corey Haim if Corey Haim was a chick.

There's no reason that this movie should have taken 26 years to get an American release, it is an anti-racism statement, and the people at the NAACP who threatened a boycott are fucktards. This is a smart movie, just not a very fun one.
