Stephen King horror Cujo on 2-disc Limited Edition Blu-ray in April

21 February 2019

Evil bites when a monstrous canine terrorises a helpless family in this legendary cult classic. Based on Stephen King's best-selling novel, Cujo gives horror a new name.

While Donna (Dee Wallace – The Howling, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial) and Vic Trenton struggle to save their rocky marriage, their son Tad befriends the loveable St. Bernard who belongs to their mechanic. But what they don not realise is that a bat bite has transformed Cujo from a docile pup to a vicious killer. With Vic away on business, Donna and Tad's car trouble pushes them into a living nightmare trapped by the demonic, relentless dog from hell.

This critically acclaimed thriller from director Lewis Teague (The Lady in Red, Alligator) promises to have you glued to your seat and foaming at the mouth!
