Good Boy

New, creative ideas in cinema often come from merging two genres. The movie Good Boy is about a dog, but it's a horror film. A guy inherits his grandfather's farm house and moves in with his loyal dog Indy. Indy detects malevolent forces before the guy does, as dogs will. It's the first horror film shown from the dog's point of view.  

Indy (the dog's real name as well as the character) belongs to Good Boy director Ben Leonberg. That's how we have that archival footage of him growing up in the beginning of this trailer. Good Boy got positive reviews at SXSW last spring, and is at 95% among movie critics at Rotten Tomatoes. The one question everyone has is Does the Dog Die? No definite answer so far, but I can't imagine the reviews would be so good if Indy doesn't make it out alive. Good Boy will open in theaters October 3rd. (via Geeks Are Sexy)
