Resort islanders are terrorized by a bloodthirsty pack of abandoned dogs.

On Par with Cujo

I was into these nature thrillers years ago when I was a bit younger and I saw this one on a local network on a Saturday afternoon. I am happy to see it on Amazon as this hidden gem is yet to be re-released on DVD. The plot was a bit predictable for this type of flick but the realistic images and the fact that something like this could actually (and does) happen (but on a smaller scale) will send more shivers down your spine than today's blood, guts and spacemen horror films.

I always thought Cujo was the only dog-goes-beserk flick that gave me chills. Then when I saw this movie I realized that Cujo isn't the only one. This movie needs to be put on DVD. While it has some cliche moments like knowing the next attack and the whole house burning thing to stop the dogs has been done. What makes this movie stand out is that although fiction it shows that dogs can turn on people when abused or abandoned.

The leader of a pack a Lab mix really gives a good performance he is scary I'll admit! And the little collie mix that learns how to unstuck his rope was awesome. Very good dogs with excellent trainers.

Please give this movie a chance.

I'd like to say this movie is a dog, but...

I managed to catch it on cable a year or so back, and thought it was pretty decent as far as cheesy-70's "nature attacks" movies go. Even with the bloodthirsty poodles. I remember a setpiece involving a rabid dog chasing the characters through a cabin that I found surprisingly hair-raising and theres a sublimely absurd scene where the dogs chase a vehicle onto a dock, and come to a screeching halt when the vehicle starts to back up.
