Cujo

“Now, there's a new name for terror.”

Donna Trenton (Dee Wallace) is a mother in a small American town, trying to hold her household together while her husband Vic (Daniel Hugh Kelly) is away and her young son Tad (Danny Pintauro) is afraid of what might be in his closet. Meanwhile, the Cambers' friendly St. Bernard, Cujo, picks up rabies and becomes a threat to anyone who wanders onto his property. Lewis Teague keeps the story close to Donna, and she has only her own nerve to rely on.
