"Cujo" rides a line between solid slow-building and tediousness, but once it takes off, it's absolutely terrifying.

Terrifying King adaptation that pulls out all the stops. Dee Wallace shines in the lead role of Donna, as does Danny Pintauro as Tad. Relentless and scary, and all too real.

The general premise is somewhat campy and, certainly, there are moments of 80's silliness in this horror film, but it actually is effectively suspenseful and scary at the right moments and is an above-average King adaptation.
