Baxter



Despite the appearance of the DVD cover - and the fact that Baxter is a Bull Terrier and not a Pit Bull - this is actually a very good movie. Part horror and part drama, it tells the story of a murderous Bull Terrier looking for a person that's just like him. It's disturbing, but not gory in the sense of a traditional horror film - it's much more subtle.

a.k.a Dracula's Dog



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.

The Pack (1977)

AKA "The Long Dark Night"



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