Very good movie that does not resort to cheap thrills to scare you...okay, maybe once, but that's allowed.
That damn dog is enough to make anyone cringe..he is rabid and p***ed about it, too, so he attacks anyone he encounters. Unfortunately for Dee Wallace and her son, that includes them, in a remote spot with a not-functioning-properly car. They are stuck in the car and there is no way out. The kid is already scared of his own shadow so this does not go over that well, and Mom is a contrite adulterer who might be feeling a little like she's paying for her sins.
There are several great shots - Pinaturo running from the lightswitch to his bed; and another in the car when they realize the true horror - the camera circles around and around and the effect is very chilling.
Recommended. 8/10.
