a.k.a. Zanna Bianca
I shouldn't be surprised by the amount of extreme cruelty shown in this film because, c'mon, it's Fulci but wow. The acting is wooden, the story oddly paced, and the animal cruelty abundant - this movie is a trifecta of awful. As if this movie weren't weird enough, it ties in with Call of the Wild by having White Fang be Buck's son - Buck of course, then drops dead.

Featuring only the finest overused stock dog noises and Reggie Nalder's perpetual pseudo-duckface, Zoltan is....something, all right. It's not terrible - the dog actually does attack people rather than just staring at them, but the cuts they do for the footage look ridiculous, as if the dogs were flung by catapult at the actors - the ending of the move is rife with it. What I noticed most about this movie is that many time, the dogs would be barkin/howling without their mouths being open - kind of like the old Godzilla dubs.

Difficult to follow, with jumpy scene changes, I found spinning in my computer chair to more entertaining than this movie - whee!

So, when you breed a demon to a German Shepherd, you get a dog that doesn't actually attack anyone, but instead just sits there and stares at them. And then it turns into this:

I like how nobody on a goddamned island seems to own a boat. And leaving bodies everywhere is cool too, I guess.
