'Good Boy' and other horror movies with dogs

Horror cinema taps into our most primal fears — the unknown, death, and survival. But what happens when innocent and loyal creatures like dogs are caught in the middle? The presence of humanity’s “best friends” adds an extra layer of terror: we either fear for them… or, when corrupted by darkness, fear them. If you enjoyed Good Boy, here are other horror movies with dogs you can watch online.

Although also directed by Mary Lambert, this 'Pet Sematary Two' sequel is not based on a Stephen King novel, unlike its predecessor. Furthermore, for obvious reasons, the characters from the first installment do not return for this second one, so aside from vague mentions of its events and the Creed family, there are few arguments to call it a legitimate sequel, besides the interest in taking advantage of the modest success of the title. This is a mediocre movie, but it was the second one made by young Edward Furlong after his debut in 'Terminator 2'. Fun, finally, for those interested in the career of the also protagonist of 'American History X' and 'Detroit Rock City'.

Inspired by Richard Matheson's homonymous book, 'I Am Legend' might be the most desolate setting of an epidemic. Here, director Francis Lawrence (from 'The Hunger Games') puts Will Smith's character as the only survivor of a collapsed world -- besides, of course, his companion dog. The rest of the people in the world were infected, turning them into a kind of zombie. As said, it is the most devastating version possible for a viral infection scenario. But the emotion with some scenes, Will Smith's remarkable performance and the comforting ending can serve as good entertainment.

Good Boy: is a horror film with a unique premise: it’s narrated from the perspective of Indy, a canine protagonist. The story follows him as he accompanies his human, Todd (Shane Jensen), who decides to travel to the remote rural house he inherited from his grandfather. Unaware that the place is haunted, Todd remains oblivious while Indy can sense the unusual presences that inhabit it. The film stands out for the originality of its narrative perspective and some clever scares along the way, though the concept wears thin halfway through, and the premise only works because the dog seems much smarter than his owner. Nevertheless, the canine protagonist’s charm alone is enough to generate tension in the face of the terrors lurking in the dark.
