Today I am reviewing the latest Horror Movie Good Boy told from the perspective of Indy the dog!
This is a haunted house tale that gives us something a little different, its been widely praised on the film festival circuit.. but will it live up the hype for me.. lets find out!
“Trust his instincts.
A loyal dog moves to a rural family home with his owner Todd, only to discover supernatural forces lurking in the shadows. As dark entities threaten his human companion, the brave pup must fight to protect the one he loves most.”
I was very lucky to recieve a early screener to watch of this amazing movie after its successful festival run! I was not dissapointed
This movie lived up to the hype for me and I watched this at home on my computer! I can only imagine how atmospheric and beautiful this movie would be on the big screen in the cinema!
Indy is a beautiful dog and plays this so well. You feel a sense of tension and unease you don’t get with many horror movies. You genuinely care for the dogs well being and feel the sense of vulnerability and dread everytime the spooky stuff happens.
This dog deserves every award it gets!!
The story is pretty basic, but as its told exclusively from the angle of the dog its something fresh and new but at its heart its a haunted house story!
Its not POV like we don’t see through the dogs eyes, but the camera stays low at indys height and we see the ghosts from indys angle which makes the house and entities seem huge as they would to the dogs size. this is a unique way to shoot a movie.
overall i enjoyed this movie! It was atmospheric, spooky and kept me invested.
well worth a watch highly recommend it!
Go see this movie when it comes out in UK cinemas October 10th!
