Son of a Dog

About This Movie

So, 'Son of a Dog' is an interesting piece from 2011 that blends action and horror in a way that's kind of raw and gritty. The plot revolves around this average guy who takes a stand for an abused dog, but things spiral into a chaotic and bloody rampage. The pacing is a bit all over the place, but that adds to the chaotic feel of the story. The practical effects are surprisingly well done, giving it that visceral edge you often want in these types of films. Performances are decent, especially from the lead who captures that descent into madness convincingly. It’s not the most polished film, but it carries a certain unrefined charm that’s hard to overlook.
