Canada | The Globe and Mail | Is it possible for a horror movie to be too good? If it is, then Cujo is it (...) an experience that borders on the unbearably intense." | POS |
United States | Variety | "Although well-made, this screen adaptation of Stephen King's Cujo emerges as a dull, uneventful entry in the horror genre." | NEG |
United States | The New York Times | "'Cujo' is by no means a horror classic, but it's suspenseful and scary." | POS |
United Kingdom | Time Out | "For all its ingenuity, 'Cujo' does lose an awful lot of ground from the fact that rabid St Bernards tend to evoke pity rather than terror." | NEU |
United States | Miami Herald | "'Cujo' is one of those nightmares that does not require even the suspension of disbelief. Anyone who can accept that there are dogs, people and cars that don't work can be scared silly by this movie" | POS |
