First time on Blu Ray in the UK
I will not talk about the movie much to avoid spoilers. I really want to talk about the Blu Ray release itself.I watched Cujo for the first time just a few days ago. The dog acted superb and so did the child actor. However for some reason, I did feel a little sad for the dog which is a Saint Bernard. Overall the movie is good for It's time, which released back in 1983.This is the first time Cujo has been released in the UK on Blu Ray by Eureka.This Limited Edition comes with two Blu Ray Discs. Disc two is a bonus disc, which is Exclusive to the Limited Edition. Disc one contains the full feature movie and bonus extras. Disc two also has extras. Overall you get seven hours of bonus content.The Presentation of the packaging is stunningly gorgeous. The outer cardboard casing is very strong and sturdy. It has a smooth Matt finish, and comes with a glossy information card. The newly commissioned artwork on the outer casing is beautiful to look at. It looks like an oil painting.The actual Blu Ray case inside, is clear plastic, which slips inside the outer casing. It comes with a reversible cover art.Included is a 60 page booklet that includes, behind the scenes, interviews, and promo posters.Limited to 4,000 copies worldwide.RatingMovie 8/10Picture 8/10Sound 8/10Extras 7/10Presentation 10/10REGION BOverall I'm happy with this purchase of Cujo. Eureka have done an excellent job of bringing this to Blu Ray for the first time in the UK.Overall Rating8.5/10

Stephen King classic
This is a Stephen king classic brought to life on filmCujo is a lovely family St Bernard dog until he is bitten by a bat, the now diseased dog becomes a dangerous animal irritated by noise and people, before finding solace after dispatching of his owner at the deserted farm, solace that is until Donna and her young son Tad arrive to drop off their car for repairsWith Cujo trapping both in the now broken down car and preventing Donnas every move to escape, the only way she and Tad will survive their ordeal and escape their small prison is to fight to the death

Kings' Classic is still a great watch
I have always loved Cujo. It is one of those dead simple yet very effective films that manages to draw you in and keep you in to the end without you even really realising it. Shockingly violent, brutal in delivery and underrated in the main, it deserves a place on the shelf of any 80s terror film lover. All the performances are solid even with a somewhat thin script and the special effects are really good. The make up job on Cujo himself is as amazing as it is disturbing. Some cliches are to be expected but there are enough really effective jump scares and 'OMG!' moments to keep everybody happy. It's not Shawshank or The Shining but it is a rock solid entry in the King Canon.

CUJO CUJO...ITS EUREKA!!!HD
Fantastic Eureka release of an oft neglected Stephen King adaptation.Picture and sound are fantastic,the booklet is full of infomand the extra,s magnificent.I especially enjoyed Dee,s interview recalling the script and the dog killing Tad,and how they got in touch with SK to see if they could alter that part.A brilliant movie in the best possible release.
