Not to be confused with the recent Norwegian horror movie of the same name, or the recent Judy Greer-starring horror comedy of the same name, this Good Boy comes from director Ben Leonberg and co-writer Alex Cannon. The film stars the director's pet pooch Indy as a mutt who moves to a new home with his owner Todd. There he becomes spooked by a malevolent presence that seems intent on harming Todd.
The human cast includes Shane Jensen, Arielle Friedman and Larry Fessenden.
Good Boy is in UK/ROI cinemas from October 10th.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
Our canine hero, Indy, finds himself on a new adventure with his human owner—and best friend—Todd, leaving city life for a long-vacant family home in the country. From the start, two things are abundantly clear: Indy is wary of the creepy old house, and his affection for Todd is unwavering. After moving in, Indy is immediately vexed by empty corners, tracks an invisible presence only he can see, perceives phantasmagoric warnings from a long-dead dog, and is haunted by visions of the previous occupant’s grim death. When Todd begins succumbing to the dark forces swirling around the house, Indy must battle a malevolence intent on dragging his beloved Todd into the afterlife.
