Excellent movie

Kings' Classic is still a great watch
I have always loved Cujo. It is one of those dead simple yet very effective films that manages to draw you in and keep you in to the end without you even really realising it. Shockingly violent, brutal in delivery and underrated in the main, it deserves a place on the shelf of any 80s terror film lover. All the performances are solid even with a somewhat thin script and the special effects are really good. The make up job on Cujo himself is as amazing as it is disturbing. Some cliches are to be expected but there are enough really effective jump scares and 'OMG!' moments to keep everybody happy. It's not Shawshank or The Shining but it is a rock solid entry in the King Canon.

First time on Blu Ray in the UK
I will not talk about the movie much to avoid spoilers. I really want to talk about the Blu Ray release itself.I watched Cujo for the first time just a few days ago. The dog acted superb and so did the child actor. However for some reason, I did feel a little sad for the dog which is a Saint Bernard. Overall the movie is good for It's time, which released back in 1983.This is the first time Cujo has been released in the UK on Blu Ray by Eureka.This Limited Edition comes with two Blu Ray Discs. Disc two is a bonus disc, which is Exclusive to the Limited Edition. Disc one contains the full feature movie and bonus extras. Disc two also has extras. Overall you get seven hours of bonus content.The Presentation of the packaging is stunningly gorgeous. The outer cardboard casing is very strong and sturdy. It has a smooth Matt finish, and comes with a glossy information card. The newly commissioned artwork on the outer casing is beautiful to look at. It looks like an oil painting.The actual Blu Ray case inside, is clear plastic, which slips inside the outer casing. It comes with a reversible cover art.Included is a 60 page booklet that includes, behind the scenes, interviews, and promo posters.Limited to 4,000 copies worldwide.RatingMovie 8/10Picture 8/10Sound 8/10Extras 7/10Presentation 10/10REGION BOverall I'm happy with this purchase of Cujo. Eureka have done an excellent job of bringing this to Blu Ray for the first time in the UK.Overall Rating8.5/10

Stephen Kings Cujo
I had basically read this Noval that a friend had lend me and I thought that I really am liking this book and I thought to myself í had not .seen the movie. So I went into town with my mum on Saturday and I went to the DVD and music store and I asked for the movie along with another movie and unfortunately the DVD wasn't in stock. So I went online and I ordered this movie as well as Saloms lot DVD. Thanks so much for the two DVDs.

Los perros enfermos de la rabia dan mucho miedo.
El DVD es normalito, quiero decir que con la calidad estándar de estos DVD. Por otro lado, está la crítica de la propia película en sí misma. En pocas palabras, en mi humilde opinión la película es un clásico de culto; una obra maestra del cine que adapta muy bien una de las mejores historias de terror escritas por Stephen King, un autor muy conocido al que no le hace falta ninguna presentación. La película es de los ochenta y se nota esa factura, porque hoy en día poca gente sabría quiénes son los actores y las actrices que aparecen, pero no ha perdido ni un ápice de su horror intrínseco, de su capacidad para generar tensión, de su habilidad para sentir el miedo el miedo de los protagonistas. No es para verla a solas, de noche y con tormenta afuera... Si la gente de Hollywood intentara hacer una nueva versión de esta película, dudo que lograsen mejorar lo presente de ninguna manera. Un clásico es un clásico por un motivo. Por otro lado, siento lástima por Cujo y por lo que le pasó al pobre animalito. Me da mucha rabia... ;))) (¿Lo habéis pillado? Lo de "rabia"... je je je...) Perdón por el chiste malo. No dejéis de ver la película, pero eso sí, nunca a solas. Repito, nunca a solas...

Grande cult
Erano anni che aspettavo una buona edizione in bluray visto che il vecchio dvd era pessimo.. Film molto bello e di culto! Fondamentale per chi ama il genere horror!

Que la bête meure !!!
Quel plaisir de revoir ce petit fleuron du film fantastique des années 80.Si vous n'êtes pas trop fragile du cœur vous pouvez y aller.Ce film réunit à la fois l'angoisse, le stress, l'inquiétude et le doute quant à la fin....L'interprétation de Dee Wallace est exceptionnelle et que dire de celle du Saint Bernard.La réalisation est une pure merveille.Je ne me lasse pas de ce petit chef d'oeuvre sans effets spéciaux.Quant au Blu Ray, alors soyez vigilants !!!N'achetez que le steelbock, que j'ai joins en photo pour ceux qui veulent une version française.Même si cette version est un peu mixée avec une plus récente.Mais les deux versions françaises sont assez proches.Le boitier est superbe....Amateurs de sensations nerveuses, foncez sur ce petit bijou.
