‘Cujo’ Getting New Limited Edition Blu-ray

Stephen King’s stories are being brought to life in a number of different ways, with the successful response to these projects allowing audiences to rediscover his older projects. The 1983 adaptation Cujo will be getting an all-new Blu-ray full of special features that dive deep into the film, which you can learn about below.

Evil bites when a monstrous canine terrorizes a helpless family in this legendary cult classic. Based on Stephen King‘s best-selling novel, Cujo gives horror a new name. While Donna (Dee Wallace, The Howling, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial) and Vic Trenton struggle to save their rocky marriage, their son Tad befriends the loveable St. Bernard who belongs to their mechanic. But what they don’t realize is that a bat bite has transformed Cujo from a docile pup to a vicious killer. With Vic away on business, Donna and Tad’s car trouble pushes them into a living nightmare trapped by the demonic, relentless dog from hell. This critically acclaimed thriller promises to have you glued to your seat and foaming at the mouth!
