Cujo

Donna Trenton's life begins to unravel when her husband, Vic, discovers her affair. This revelation creates a rift in their marriage, impacting their family life and setting the stage for the ensuing chaos.

Brett Camber's loyal St. Bernard, Cujo, undergoes a tragic transformation after being bitten by a rabid bat. His once gentle nature is replaced by a violent and aggressive demeanor, setting the foundation for the horror that unfolds.

With lottery winnings in hand, Brett and his mother, Mrs. Camber, plan a visit to family in Connecticut. However, their journey is cut short as fate brings them closer to danger lurking in their neighbor's yard.

Donna and her young son, Tad, drive to the Camber residence to fix their car. Unbeknownst to them, they are about to step into a perilous situation with Cujo, who is no longer the friendly dog they remember.

The once loving Cujo attacks their neighbor, Gary Parvier, who bravely tries to defend himself. The attack sends shockwaves through the community as Gary becomes the first victim of Cujo's newfound aggression.

Joe Camber returns home only to find the aftermath of Cujo's violence against Gary. His attempt to intervene escalates the situation, leading to his own tragic encounter with the rabid dog.

While trying to escape, Donna and Tad's car breaks down, leaving them defenseless against Cujo's relentless pursuit. The mechanical failure highlights their vulnerability in a life-threatening situation.

While Vic is away on business, he returns home to a scene of chaos caused by Steve Kemp, the man Donna had an affair with. He quickly realizes Donna and Tad are missing, prompting him to seek help.

Vic alerts the local Sheriff about his wife and son being missing. As they investigate, time becomes critical for Donna and Tad, who are trapped with a menacing Cujo.

Facing a terrifying standoff with Cujo, Donna must make life-or-death decisions. The unbearable heat of the car forces her to act swiftly, as staying inside could have dire consequences.

The local Sheriff arrives to rescue Donna and Tad, only to be ambushed by Cujo. The encounter leads to more tragedy, underscoring Cujo's escalation into a formidable threat.

With her son’s safety on the line, Donna makes a daring move to grab a baseball bat while Cujo is distracted. Her bravery shines through as she prepares to confront the raging dog.

In a desperate struggle, Donna fights back against Cujo using all her strength. This intense confrontation culminates in her managing to fatally wound the dog, turning the tide in her favor.

After being wounded, Cujo attempts one final attack through the kitchen window. Armed with the Sheriff's revolver, Donna is prepared and shoots Cujo, preventing him from reaching them.

As Vic approaches the Camber home, he is filled with dread, uncertain of what he might find. He is relieved to see Donna emerging with Tad, their survival marking the end of a harrowing ordeal.
