Why watch?
“Good Boy, in both concept and execution, is an ambitious, playful and visually striking film within the modern ghostly film genre, and I heartily recommend it as perfectly gripping dog-based autumnal Halloween viewing.”

Featuring Director Ben Leonberg's real-life dog in the titular role, Good Boy is a fascinating supernatural chiller told from the perspective of a dog.
Horror • Chilling • Gripping
Part of Spooky Season
A man moves into a new isolated home that has supernatural forces lurking in the shadows. As dark entities start to threaten him, his loyal and brave dog comes to the rescue.
Good Boy has a beautiful and distinct visual approach, often framing scenes from the dog's eye level to emphasise Indy's perspective. Indy should be offered much praise and biscuits for a gripping nuanced performance without dialogue or CGI enhancements.
